Answer
In general, an increase in temperature results in an increase in the rate of diffusion. When a baby has a fever, all body processes that depend on diffusion take place with greater speed.
Work Step by Step
Generally, an increase in temperature increases the speed of molecular motion. The net result is that more material ( molecules) is moved per unit time. Applied to human physiology, this means that all the body's diffusion processes occur more rapidly during the state of a fever.
