They both serve to transport molecules across cell membranes and both make use of proteins embedded in cell membrane in order to move these molecules.

They are the channels by which molecules enter in facilitated diffusion.
No. Facilitated diffusion is an example of passive transport because it does not require the cell to expend energy.
Active transport moves solutes against their concentration gradient; facilitated diffusion moves substances down their concentration gradient.
They both require a trans membrane protein. Facilitated diffusion does not require energy whereas active transport requires energy. Facilitated diffusion takes place when there is a net movement of molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration whereas active transport takes place when there is a net movement of molecules from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.
Carrier proteins is important in facilitated diffusion. Facilitated diffusion transports molecules from one area of higher concentration on one side of the membrane to an area of lower concentration on the other side .Because the molecules are moving down their concentration gradient , facilitated diffusion is passive transport.
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.

no
simple and facilitated diffusion don't require energy and are forms of passive transport. Active transport requires energy
Active transport moves solutes against their concentration gradient; facilitated diffusion moves substances down their concentration gradient.

facilitated diffusion, secondary active transport and active transport
Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport which does not require the cell to expend energy.
Diffusion, facilitated diffusion, passive transport, facilitated transport (?) and active transport ... unless we are referring to viral or bacterial products.
Facilitated diffusion, or diffusion through ion channels, is not a form of active transport. It is a spontaneous passive transport.
Active transport is when proteins move substances into the cell while expending energy. Facilitated diffusion is the movement of chemicals through a protein into a cell.
