Facilitated diffusion is the process by which glucose can pass through a cell membrane by combining with special carrier molecules.
The Glucose and the Amino Acids.
simple diffusion transports smaller molecules like oxygen and water while facilitated diffusion transports larger molecules like glucose and requires energy
A semipermeable membrane is a large glucose molecule that requires facilitated diffusion but an oxygen molecule does not.

The answer is that glucose crosses a semi-permiable membrane by the process of facilitated diffusion. It cannot be by osmosis, because osmosis is the moving of only water from a concentration of high to low.
it enters most rapidly by facilitated diffusion!!
A large glucose molecule requires facilitated diffusion but an oxygen molecule does not is a semipermeable membrane.
