Expert Solution
Step 1

The number of diffusing molecules inside the cell changes over time, and this is measured by the rate of diffusion, dn/dt. The rate of diffusion is directly proportional to the concentration gradient (dC/dx) across the membrane because the net movement of diffusing molecules depends on the concentration gradient.
