Facilitated diffusion uses proteins to move a molecule across the cell membrane without energy.
Facilitated diffusion uses proteins to move a molecule across the cell membrane without energy.
Passive Transport
The molecule will be transported across the membrane by way of a transport protein or protein channel.

The carrier protein changes shape , shielding the molecule from the interior of the membrane.
the processe is called osmosis Try again, this time use the term "facilitated transport" since a protein molecule is helping.
Facilitated diffusion involves the movement of molecules across a cell membrane with the help of transport proteins. The steps include the binding of the molecule to the specific protein, conformational changes in the protein to carry the molecule across the membrane, and the release of the molecule on the other side of the membrane. This process does not require energy input from the cell.
If a membrane protein is unable to bind to a signaling molecule, it may not be able to transmit the intended signal across the cell membrane. This could result in disrupted cellular communication and potentially lead to improper cell function or response to stimuli.
