<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Sodium will move from the inside of the cell to the outside of the cell by diffusion. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

A <em>difference in concentration of a substance</em> in two regions induces movement of that substance  from the area of high concentration to the <em>area of low concentration</em>. Since the movement is according to a concentration gradient there is no need for energy expenditure. <em>This is called passive diffusion. </em>

In this case passive diffusion of sodium will occur. If a substance has to be moved against its concentration gradient energy is required and this p<em>rocess is called active diffusion. </em>
