Answer: Option D. "electrochemical gradient"

Explanation:

Electrical gradient is defined as the electrical potential acts on an ion that drives it in one or another direction.

Concentration gradient is defined as the movement of particles (solutes) from higher concentration area to lower concentration area, separated by a membrane.

The combination of electrical gradient and a concentration gradient  is called electrochemical gradient  that allows the movement of an ion across a membrane based on solute concentration.

Hence, the correct option is D.

Explain the adaptive advantages of a territory to the animal that establishes it.
Tju [1.3M]
An organism may establish a definite area within the habitat and defend it from all other members of the population. The organisms which establish and defend a territory are more vigorous and better fitted members of the population. They are more assured of producing off-springs and thus perpetuating their more favourable attributes within the species.
