Answer:

Passive transport involves movement of substances from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration.

Explanation:

Passive transport involves the passage of substances through a semi-permeable membrane, as occurs with transport at the level of cell membranes.

Generally, passive transport occurs with the movement of compounds from the space with the highest concentration of a specific substance to the space with the lowest concentration of the same substance, following the so-called concentration gradient. Theoretically, the gradient tends to disappear when the concentrations of substances have balanced out.

Regarding other options:

A. From areas of lower concentration to areas of higher concentration. It is a feature of active transport.

C. From areas in which the concentration has reached a balance. There is no passive transport

D. From areas of differing concentrations with the use of cellular energy. Energy use involves active transport.

The rocks present in western Africa and eastern South America formed at the same place and at the same time is scientific observation because the scientists takes the data.

Even if modern organisms are found in ancient portions of the fossil record, this wouldn't challenge the theory of evolution in any way is refers to scientific explanation.

The cloning of organisms is an exciting area of study, and more resources should be be devoted to it so it is refers as scientific explanation.

The age, type, and composition of ancient rocks in western Africa are nearly identical to the age, type, and composition of rocks in eastern South America is scientific observation which is taken by the scientist through research.
