Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
What is the primary mechanism by which most drugs are distributed throughout the body?
Step 1: Understand that drugs enter the body and need to reach different parts to work.
Step 2: Learn that drugs move from areas where there is a lot of the drug (high concentration) to areas where there is less of the drug (low concentration).
Step 3: Recognize that this movement happens naturally without needing energy, which is called passive diffusion.
Step 4: Remember that passive diffusion is the primary way drugs spread throughout the body.
