Evolution is a slow natural process occurring in living organisms which explains the formation of the diversity of organisms on Earth. In simple terms, evolution explains how life survived on Earth after the origin of life but it cannot explain the origin of life. However, modern evolutionary biologists are now trying to decode the origin of life through evolutionary evidence and support that earlier form of life originated in the large oceans around 3.5 billion years ago. These organisms are simple living unicellular organisms which later evolved into the eukaryotic organisms.
Facilitated diffusion pumps polar and charged molecules, such as carbohydrates, amino acids, nucleosides, and ions, cross the plasma membrane.
As sodium ion concentrations build outside the plasma membrane because of the action of the primary active transport process, an electrochemical gradient is created
