Ion channel
cell membrane
The molecule will be transported across the membrane by way of a transport protein or protein channel.
Its too large
No, egg albumin is a large protein molecule that cannot pass through the plasma membrane on its own. It would require specific transport mechanisms, such as endocytosis or facilitated diffusion, to cross the membrane.
Globular Proteins
Proteins are to large or Oxygen is much smaller than a protein.
It requires energy, and a protein carrier molecule. The large particle binds to the protein carrier on the inside of the cell. It is then transported across the membrane as a result of a conformational change in the protein (think of it flipping), and then it is released on the outside of the cell. Again, this requires some source of energy.
Facilitated diffusion occurs through a protein channel by allowing specific molecules to pass through the cell membrane with the help of a protein channel. The protein channel acts as a tunnel that facilitates the movement of molecules that are too large or polar to pass through the membrane on their own. The molecules bind to the protein channel, which changes shape to allow them to pass through, ultimately helping them move across the membrane.
