Facilitated diffusion is the process of transporting ions and other chemicals into a cell. The macro molecule involved in this process are proteins.
Passive diffusion is what naturally happens without any assistance of any sort. Facilitated diffusion requires extra energy from extra sources to happen.
Facilitated diffusion is a type of active transport that lets certain chemicals into a cell. This process relies on surface proteins.
there is no freaking purpose, Biology blows. -___-
Active transport is when proteins move substances into the cell while expending energy. Facilitated diffusion is the movement of chemicals through a protein into a cell.
Carrier proteins
facilitated diffusion
They are the channels by which molecules enter in facilitated diffusion.
Facilitated diffusion moves molecules through cell membranes passively.
Facilitated diffusion uses integrated proteins that act as channels for ions or molecules to pass through.
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
it enters most rapidly by facilitated diffusion!!
Facilitated Diffusion
facilitated diffusion
There are three forms of passive transport, or the movement of biochemical and other atomic or molecular substances across the cell membranes. They are: osmosis, simple diffusion or facilitated diffusion, and filtration.
No. Facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport because it does not require the cell to expend energy.
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
Carrier proteins; also know as permeases or transporters
