Chapter 3.3, Problem 3R
Summary Introduction
To define: The term “diffusion”.
Introduction: The concentration gradient is the movement of substances inside a cell to equalize the concentration of particles both within the cell and outside the cell. The movement of solutes helps in the spread of water and nutrients from areas of higher concentration to areas that contain low concentration of solutes.
