What is facilitated transport?
Facilitated diffusion (or facilitated transport) is a process of diffusion, a form of passive transport facilitated by transport proteins. Facilitated diffusion is the spontaneous passage of molecules or ions across a biological membrane passing through specific transmembrane transport proteins. The facilitated diffusion may occur either across biological membranes or through aqueous compartments of an organism.
When are transport proteins used?
During facilitated diffusion
A form of passive transport that involves membrane proteins to aid in the movement of substances?
Facilitated diffusion
What is the facilitated diffusion to assist the transport of sugar and sodium molecules?
transport proteins both are carrier proteins and channel proteins
What is the primary cause of diffusion?
The primary driving force of facilitated diffusion are surface cell proteins. These proteins transport substances in and out of the cell.

How do transport proteins move substances across membranes?
Facilitated diffusion (also known as facilitated transport or passive-mediated transport) is a process of passive transport, facilitated by integral proteins. Facilitated diffusion is the spontaneous passage of molecules or ions across a biological membrane passing through specific transmembrane integral proteins. The facilitated diffusion may occur either across biological membranes or through aqueous compartments of an organism.*This is from Wikipedia.....
In what process are carrier proteins important?
Carrier proteins is important in facilitated diffusion. Facilitated diffusion transports molecules from one area of higher concentration on one side of the membrane to an area of lower concentration on the other side .Because the molecules are moving down their concentration gradient , facilitated diffusion is passive transport.
Facilitated diffusion across a biological membrane requires what?
transport proteins
Both active transport and facilitated diffusion involve what?
Carrier proteins
What is used in facilitated diffusion to assist transport of sugar and sodium molecules?
transport proteins both are carrier proteins and channel proteins
Facilitated diffusion moves large molecules through?
Transport proteins and carrier proteins
