It is an integral protein that acts as a channel.
Facilitated diffusion moves molecules through cell membranes passively.
Carrier proteins
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
The difference between diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion is that the molecules pass through special protein channels.
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
Facilitated diffusion does not require the use of energy.
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.
simple diffusion, osmosis and 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.
facilitated diffusion.
Facilitated diffusion is an inactive mode.So no ATP cost.
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
