If something goes “along” its concentration gradient it goes from
|
an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration
|
|
an area of high concentration to an area of low concetration
|
|
Either A or B
|
|
None of the above

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A concentration gradient occurs when the concentration of particles is higher in one area than another. In passive transport, particles will diffuse down a concentration gradient, from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration, until they are evenly spaced.
Detailed explanation-2: -In osmosis, water moves from areas of low concentration of solute to areas of high concentration of solute.
Detailed explanation-3: -Active transport is a kind of cellular transport where substances move against a concentration gradient. This means that the direction is from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration.
