Question 1

What is the primary transport process that occurs when substances move along a concentration gradient?

  • Advection
  • Resuspension
  • Diffusion
  • Bioturbation

💡 Hint: Remember: High to low concentration.

Question 2

True or False: Bioturbation only slows down sediment transport.

  • True
