Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Oxygen moves from an area where the partial pressure is higher, such as the lungs, to an area where it is lower, such as body cells, through the process of diffusion. This movement is also facilitated by the concentration gradient. Therefore, option C is correct. Option A is incorrect because oxygen is not following the movement of water. Option B is incorrect because oxygen does not move based on pH. Option D is incorrect because it goes against the basic principle of diffusion.
