Answer:

This process is known as diffusion.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Diffusion is the movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
  • It happens in liquids and gases because their particles move randomly from place to place.
  • It does not require energy as it is a passive transport.
  • According to above information the transport of oxygen in cells from high concentration to low concentration is diffusion.
