minus-squareOsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 month agoIsn’t it just water carrying stuff across a concentration gradient?
minus-squarebradorsomething@ttrpg.networklinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 month agoGravity is just stuff falling, but there’s complexity there, as well.
minus-squareDogyotelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 month agoNo? Water can’t carry anything across the membrane.
minus-squareOsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoOh. Then how does the stuff get across the membrane? Does the membrane allow stuff to move over a concentration gradient without the water?
