Active Transport is carried out in our body cells. Active Transport uses energy to transport materials.
EXAMPLES OF FACILITATED DIFFUSION IN THE HUMAN BODYExchange of oxygen and carbon in the alveoli of the lungsThe absorption of glucose, fructose, amino acids in the small intestines
diffusion occurs naturally facilitated diffusion and active transport need energy
Vitamin C is water soluable so the only way it can be transported is by faciliated difficusion using a channel protein. Channel proteins allow polar, watersoluable substances and ions to pass across the cell membrane using faciliated diffusion. Vitamin D is lipid soluble therefore it can pass through using simple diffusion because the phospholipid bilayer lets it pass through down its concentration gradient.

Yes, faciliated diffusion is when a cell uses energy to maintain homeostasis, but regular diffusion is when homeostasis occurs without using energy.
active transport
ion
The difference is that Active transport engulfs the substance by using the cells membrane. Exocytosis engulfs the substance by engulfing it into a vesicle, then bring it into the cell, and Exocytosis releases he substance from a cell by fusion of a vesicle. :)
Everywhere, for example sitting on your chair, walking, using a mode of transport.
by using the things which are effected in the environment. example: transport, using more electricity and many more.
When a substance moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration while using energy the process is called active transport.
active transport
It allows for the flow of substances which are normally too large to pass through the cell membrane. Like active transport, it accomplishes this using channel proteins coded for each specific substance (sugar, for example). Unlike active transport, facilitated diffusion only works WITH the osmotic pressure gradient, not against.
The temperature of the substance is equal to the amount of heat applied
This movement occurs through several mechanisms.
Carrier proteins facilitate passive transport of molecules across a membrane by changing its shape, by using ATP, to allow a substance to pass through the membrane.
