What is carrier-assisted transport?

Carrier-assisted transport is a mechanism in which a carrier molecule assists in the movement of a substance across a biological membrane. The carrier molecule can bind to the substance and facilitate its transport across the membrane. This process is typically passive and does not require energy input from the cell.
