Some of travels along a concentration gradient by diffusing into the blood.

The flow of water through the plant from the roots to the leaves, through the xylem
"Evaluate the the effectiveness of sport drinks" would surely be too small of a topic for a six marker, right? I know MYGCSESCIENCE done a rather long video on it but a lot of the areas he talked about are not on the specification. If they were to give a 6 mark question on that topic, it would have to be a question with a large text attached to it - similar to that of the C2 January 2013 six mark question.

Flow of water from the roots to the leaves due to water loss in the leaves.

root have root hair cells to increase the surface area. They are very thin so there is a short diffusion path/active transport ??
