The conditions necessary for diffusion is firstly a semi permeable membrane, and a concentration gradient for the movement of molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration. The size of the molecules should be small enough to pass easily through the membrane.

Glucose, sodium ions and chloride ions are some examples of molecules and ions that must efficiently get across the plasma membrane, however the lipid bi layer of the membrane is virtually impermeable to them. Their transport must therefore be facilitated by proteins that span the membrane and provide an alternative route or bypass.

Facilitated diffusion involves protein carriers, which can transport substances in either direction across the membrane.

Facilitated diffusion is passive, and therefore requires no energy input. However, there must be a concentration gradient.

Diffusion is always from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
