Cells do not gain (or use) energy through facilitated diffusion.
Glucose is the most common energy source for cells and enters cells through facilitated diffusion via glucose transporters, such as the GLUT proteins. Once inside the cell, glucose undergoes cellular respiration to produce ATP, the cell's primary energy currency.
Chemicals move into and out of cells primarily through passive diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport processes. Passive diffusion relies on concentration gradients, while facilitated diffusion involves the use of carrier proteins. Active transport uses energy to move molecules against their concentration gradient.
Sugar molecules can enter cells through the process of facilitated diffusion or active transport. Facilitated diffusion involves the use of transporter proteins to move sugars across the cell membrane, while active transport requires energy to move sugars against a concentration gradient into the cell.
"Passive" mean that it does not require energy, therefore the passive transport of material across the membrane means that it can transport the material (cells or whatever) without the function of energy across the membrane.
Substances enter and leave cells through processes such as diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, and endocytosis/exocytosis. Once inside the cell, substances can become distributed within cells through diffusion, cytoplasmic streaming, vesicular transport, and interactions with organelles.
It does not require the use of the cells energy.
Particles move through cell membranes w/out the use of energy by cells.
transpiration and diffusion through cell walls.Tranpiration is only for plant cells and animals cells do not have a cell wall. For animal cells there is diffusion and omosis through cell membranes.diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion

Movement of substances into and out of cells include passive mechanisms that do not require cellular energy (diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, and filtration) and active mechanisms that use cellular energy (active transport, endocytosis,and exocytosis).
The movement of oxygen into cells from the bloodstream is accomplished through diffusion. Oxygen diffuses from areas of higher concentration in the bloodstream to areas of lower concentration in the cells, facilitated by the concentration gradient between the two. This process is essential for cellular respiration and the production of energy in the form of ATP.
Facilitated diffusion (or facilitated transport) is a process of diffusion, a form of passive transport facilitated by transport proteins. Facilitated diffusion is the spontaneous passage of molecules or ions across a biological membrane passing through specific transmembrane transport proteins. The facilitated diffusion may occur either across biological membranes or through aqueous compartments of an organism.
"Passive" mean that it does not require energy, therefore the passive transport of material across the membrane means that it can transport the material (cells or whatever) without the function of energy across the membrane.
Glucose moves into red blood cells through facilitated diffusion. In this process, glucose passes through specific membrane transport proteins called glucose transporters, such as GLUT1, which allow glucose to move down its concentration gradient and into the cell.
