A- A Concentration Gradient B- A Selectively Permeable Membrane C- A Source of Energy D- A Protein The Answer Is (A) Diffusion can occur without a semipermeable membrane, as diffusion is simply movement of a substance from high to low concentration. A source of energy is needed only for active transport. Proteins are needed if the the particles transported are too big to pass the semipermeable membrane.
Facilitated diffusion uses proteins to move a molecule across the cell membrane without energy.

The rate of diffusion through a semipermeable membrane will be lowest when temperatures are low. Lower temperatures decrease the energy of the molecules, which in turn decreases the rate of diffusion.
Any movement of molecules into or out of a cell without the expenditure of energy is called diffusion. If the molecule uses special channels to diffuse through the membrane (again, not expending energy), it is called facilitated diffusion.

The movement of molecules across the semipermeable membrane follows the law of diffusion. Thus, the molecules of a substance move from their higher concentration towards their lower concentration by their own kinetic energy.

Can someone please help me with this question
When water diffuses through a semipermeable membrane, such as a cell, it is called osmosis. In osmosis the concentration of water will differ on one side of the membrane from that of the other side. Water molecules will tend to diffuse from the high concentration side to the lower.
