because those that can't get through the membrane by themselves can get help. transport proteins give them a ride through the membrane. different transport proteins make it easier for certain molecules to get through the membrane without cell using energy

Facilitated diffusion does not require energy to transport molecules across the cell membrane.


Energy is blank from the cell for passive transport?

Energy is not required for passive transport, as it occurs naturally due to the concentration gradient without the cell expending energy. Examples of passive transport include simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.


How is facilitated diffusion diferant froma an active transport?

Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport which does not require the cell to expend energy.


How is active transport different than simple and facilitated diffusion?

simple and facilitated diffusion don't require energy and are forms of passive transport. Active transport requires energy


Facilitated diffusion sentence?

Facilitated diffusion is a type of diffusion specifically for larger molecules, to help them cross a selectively permeable membrane with the help of integral proteins that act as carriers. Facilitated diffusion is a passive process, i.e. it does not need energy/ATP.


Does glucose enters a cell most rapidly by facilitated diffusion?

No, glucose enters a cell most rapidly through facilitated diffusion with the help of glucose transporters, such as GLUT proteins. Facilitated diffusion allows glucose to move down its concentration gradient into the cell without requiring energy.
