Yes, faciliated diffusion is when a cell uses energy to maintain homeostasis, but regular diffusion is when homeostasis occurs without using energy.

Do carrier proteins require energy?
By definition, osmosis does not require the transport of particles or energy in the process. Osmosis is the movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
How does kinetic energy affect diffusion rate?
The greater the collision rate, the greater the diffusion rate. As the molecules of the substance that is diffusing are more concentrated, the molecules collide more. As they diffuse and spread apart, there are less collisions and diffusion slows down.
Movement of water molecules without the use of energy?
Diffusion
What type of energy energy is found in the disorderly motion of molecules?
Diffusion, simple Diffusion, osmosis Facilitated Diffusion
Does active transport require the cell to expend energy?
Yes, require to spend energy
By what process are bacteria brought into a cell?
Faciliated diffusion
What requires energy diffusion fcilitated diffusion osmosis active transport?
b and c active transpot and faciliated
What type of transport is faciliated diffusion?
Neither of these require energy. Diffusion occurs naturally when a higher concentration of a substance exists on one side of a membrane than the other; molecules will enter into the area of lesser concentration until there is an equilibrium on both sides. Active transport requires the energy of the cell.
How is faciliated transport similar to simple diffusion?
Facilitated and simple diffusion both transport solutes along a concentration gradient and neither processes require any ATP expenditure.
In facilitated diffusion which process does not require energy?
Simple and facilitated diffusion are a part of passive transport. This refers to the movement of molecules, atoms and ions across the cell membrane. In both of these processes, molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration because equilibrium is trying to be maintained in living organisms. Simple diffusion just happens randomly and without any aides. Facilitated diffusion uses proteins in the cell membrane to guide polar molecules and ions in and out of the membrane (always to areas of lower concentration) and DOES NOT require ENERGY.Only active diffusion requires energy.
What is ATP used for in diffusion?
It's not. Diffusion does not require energy.
Why does diffusion require energy?
it just does.
What process permits absorption of glucose into cells?

Why does active transport require more energy than osmosis or faciliated diffusion?
It is because during active transport, the molecules are being transported against and toward the concentration gradient whereas in diffusion, the molecules go from the concentration gradient.
Does the facialited diffusion require the cell to use energy?
No, it does not require energy use from the cell.
Does the facilitated diffusion not require the cell to use energy?
It does not require the use of the cells energy.
Why are cytosis affected by change in oxygen and diffusion is not?
Cytosis requires energy, and the production of energy depends on oxygen. Diffusion does not require energy.
