What is the difference between diffusion and facilitate diffusion?

The difference between diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion is that the molecules pass through special protein channels.


What are the 3 types of diffusion?

Does glucose enters a cell most rapidly by facilitated diffusion?

No, glucose enters a cell most rapidly through facilitated diffusion with the help of glucose transporters, such as GLUT proteins. Facilitated diffusion allows glucose to move down its concentration gradient into the cell without requiring energy.


How much ATP does the Facilitated diffusion cost the cell?

Facilitated diffusion is an inactive mode.So no ATP cost.


What is the use of carrier proteins for diffusion?

facilitated diffusion.


What processes are responsible for chemicals moving into throughout and out of the cell?

Chemicals move into and out of cells primarily through passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport processes. Passive diffusion relies on concentration gradients, while facilitated diffusion involves the use of carrier proteins. Active transport uses energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
