Which of the following is always true about molecules?
Correct answer
C
Rationale
The correct answer is C: 'They move from high concentration to low concentration without using energy.' This statement aligns with the concept of passive transport, where molecules naturally move from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration to reach equilibrium. This process does not require energy input. Option A is incorrect because not all molecules can freely pass through all cell membranes due to factors like size and charge. Option B describes active transport, which involves the movement of molecules against their concentration gradient, requiring energy. Option D is incorrect as molecules are in constant motion.
