At any given moment, a particular substance may exist in higher or lower concentrations on one side of the membrane versus the other. Such a difference in concentration is called a <i>gradient.</i> The particular type of transport used for a particular substance depends on the direction of its concentration</p><br><br> <a href="http://www.dummies.com/WileyCDA/DummiesArticle/id-5953.html?cid=RSS_DUMMIES_BEYONDCLASSROOM">Read More...</a> </td> </tr> </table> Mon, 21 Apr 2008 04:00:00 GMT http://www.dummies.com/WileyCDA/DummiesArticle/id-5953.html?cid=RSS_DUMMIES_BEYONDCLASSROOM 2008-04-21T04:00:00Z
