Answer:

d) passage of a solute against its concentration gradient

Explanation:

When a solute is transported against its concentration gradient, the cells use metabolic energy. To move a substance from the region of its lower concentration to that of its higher concentration, the energy of ATP hydrolysis is utilized. These types of transport mechanisms are called active transports. If ATP hydrolysis is inhibited in a cell, it would not be able to perform the uphill movement of solutes due to the lack of any source of energy to drive the process.

This might not be very accurate but.. I would assume that individuals should be concerned about toxicity levels and it’s overall nutrition. If there was no testing done on this plant before it’s release it could cause severe damage and possible allergic reaction to whoever consumes it. You should also worry about the cleanliness for there are high chances of getting some sort of parasite
