Facilitated diffusion uses integrated proteins that act as channels for ions or molecules to pass through.
No, there is no ATP used in facilitated diffusion, because it is a form of passive transport. It only differs from normal diffusion in that it uses transport proteins to move larger or more polar molecules across the membrane of the cell.
It doesn't. (answer by RRU member Cyrem)
The random movement of molecules and ions down their concentration gradient (meaning from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration) is called simple diffusion. Simple diffusion is related to the magnitude of driving force, permeability of the membrane, and surface area.
The processes that take material into cells are osmosis and diffusion. This is usually facilitated by the selective permeable membrane of the cell.
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins

Facilitated diffusion requires energy. This is because facilitated diffusion is the transfer of molecules from a lower concentration to a higher concentration.membrain pouch

Facilitated diffusion.
Passive diffusion is what naturally happens without any assistance of any sort. Facilitated diffusion requires extra energy from extra sources to happen.
transport proteins
No it does not
A semipermeable membrane is a large glucose molecule that requires facilitated diffusion but an oxygen molecule does not.
simple and facilitated diffusion don't require energy and are forms of passive transport. Active transport requires energy
It does not require the use of the cells energy.
