(Select this answer and I swear i'll make it harder for you in the assessment task)
Until a region in the system has a greater concentration of particles than the other

How does the body remove carbon dioxide from the cells?
The body cells converts carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide
The body cells don't expel the waste, they store them for future use
The body cells expel the carbon dioxide through the use of the nucleus
The carbon dioide diffuses out of the body cells and into the bloodstream due to differences in the concentration gradient

Structured
In a straight line
Random
In curved, way motions
