Solution
The correct option is B A living system. Diffusion is movement of Gas molecules, air, water molecules etc from its higher concentration to its lower concentration. The rate of diffusion is proportionate to increase or decrease in temperature. However, it does not depend on the presence of the living system. It could take place anywhere where there exists a concentration gradient.
