What does it mean when you are going with the concentration gradient?

Going with the concentration gradient is basically the process of diffusion. Molecules going from a low concentration to a high concentration would be going with the concentration gradient. Going against the concentration gradient would be the movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration

What is the meaning of 'down the concentration'?
Do you mean "down the concentration gradient"?
What is the difference in the concentration of a substance across a space is called concentration?
Concentration Gradient
How is the concentration gradient of a substance important to diffusion?
In diffusion, substances flow with a concentration gradient, meaning that they flow from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration. Flowing against a concentration gradient would be going from an area of low concentration to an area of higher concentration, but this only occurs in active transport.
What kind of concentration forms whenever there is a difference in concentration between one place and another?
noThe correct answer if you are dealing with cells is concentration gradient
Is movement of a substance down its concentration gradient a passive transport?
yes, Movement of substance down its concentration gradient is a passive transport because it going from high concentration to a low concentration, so it does not require any energy.

If diffusion is going to occur there has to be what?
A difference in the concentration throughout space because diffusion doesn't just happen in a cell or aqueous solution by definition diffusion is just from high to low concentration
What is a differences in concentration called?

The difference in concentration of a substance across space is called a?
it is called a concentration gradient.
Which term describes the difference in the concentration of a substance across a cells membrane?
concentration gradient
Do substances in diffussion move with the concentration gradient?
no. High concentration to low concentration. The molecules move down the concentration gradient.
What is the difference between the concentration of a particular molecule in one area and the concentration in an adjacent area?
Concentration Gradient
Does active transport move with or against the gradient?
Against the gradient. It requires energy because it's going against the concentration of high to low.
