Diffusion \Dif*fu"sion\, n. [L. diffusio: cf. F. diffusion.]
   1. The act of diffusing, or the state of being diffused; a
      spreading; extension; dissemination; circulation;
      dispersion.

            A diffusion of knowledge which has undermined
            superstition.                         --Burke.

   2. (Physiol.) The act of passing by osmosis through animal
      membranes, as in the distribution of poisons, gases, etc.,
      through the body. Unlike absorption, diffusion may go on
      after death, that is, after the blood ceases to circulate.

   Syn: Extension; spread; propagation; circulation; expansion;
        dispersion.
