A) It is driven primarily by pressure potential.
B) It is more effective than diffusion over distances greater than 100 μm.

E) It may be the result of either positive or negative pressure potential.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bulk flow does not depend on the force of gravity on a column of water. It is driven by pressure potential and depends on a difference in pressure potential at the source and sink. It is also more effective than diffusion over distances greater than 100 μm, and may result from either positive or negative pressure potential.
