Question

Write the correct terms/options for the movement of particles.

Water from less concentrated solution to more concentrated solution.

Answer 1

Concentration Gradient

1. A concentration gradient denotes a change in the concentration per unit distance in a solution.

Diffusion:

1. Diffusion is an essential process that occurs in all living organisms.
2. The movement of molecules in the presence of a concentration gradient is referred to as diffusion.
3. The water molecules move from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution until a state of equilibrium is reached.
4. It helps in the movement of molecules into and out of cells.

When water moves from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution it is called diffusion.
