No, diffusion does not use energy because it is a form of passive transport. The definition (if anybody needs it) is the movement of molecules in a fluid or gas from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.

No, it does not require energy use from the cell.


Do cells gain and then use energy through facilitated diffusion?

Cells do not gain energy through facilitated diffusion. Facilitated diffusion is a passive process in which molecules move across the cell membrane from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration with the help of transport proteins, without the need for energy input. Cells use energy through other processes such as active transport and cellular respiration to maintain their functions.


Which process requires no energy from the cell?

Passive transport. This process allows molecules to move across the cell membrane without the use of energy. It includes simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.


Do unicellular organisms use energy for everything?

Unicellular organisms do not use energy for everything. For instance, diffusion across the cell membrane of the organism does not require the use of energy.


Is the following sentence true or false Facilitated diffusion does not require the to use energy?

No. Facilitated diffusion is just diffusion through membrane proteins. But, it is still diffusion and the net movement of molecules is from high to low concentration and therefore does not require added energy. -H. C =)


What is diffusion in a cell?

Diffusion is an impromptu process in which cells allow certain substances to pass the plasma membrane, and not use any energy to do so.


What statements tells how facilitated diffusion differ from simple diffusion?

Particles move through cell membranes w/out the use of energy by cells.


Which transport does not require cell energy?

Why do cells use the process of diffusion?

Diffusion is essential for cells to bring nutrients and releasing wastes without spending energy.
