Passive diffusion and facilitated diffusion both involve the movement of molecules across a cell membrane, but they differ in their mechanisms of transport.
Passive diffusion does not require the assistance of transport proteins and relies on the natural movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Facilitated diffusion, on the other hand, involves the use of specific transport proteins to help molecules move across the membrane, typically from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
In summary, passive diffusion is a simple process driven by concentration gradients, while facilitated diffusion involves the assistance of transport proteins for more efficient movement of molecules.

The word that includes diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion is "passive transport." These are all types of passive transport processes where molecules move across a membrane without the need for energy input.
Osmosis is an example of passive transport, specifically a type of facilitated diffusion. In osmosis, water molecules move across a semipermeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without the use of energy.
Passive transport is called passive because it doesn't require chemical energy intervention to occur. The four main types of passive transport are diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis, and filtration.

No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.

facilitated diffusion
There are many forms of membrane and cell transport. These are the basic transport mechanisms in a prokaryotic animal cell.
