    The correct answer is A. the more rapid the rate of diffusion.

    Explanation:

    Diffusion is the movement of solute from an area which is having a high concentration of solute to an area which is having less concentration of solute through a semipermeable membrane.

    As diffusion depends on concentration gradient magnitude therefore if the difference between the concentration gradient magnitude between two regions separated by a selective membrane becomes greater than the rate of diffusion will also become high to reach the equilibrium fast.

    Therefore greater the magnitude of concentration gradient the more rapid the rate of diffusion will be.
