Water, glucose and ions such as K+, Na+, Cl- etc
Water molecules freely diffuse across a semipermeable membrane.
Passive transport is the movement of molecules across a cell membrane without the use of energy. Examples include simple diffusion, where molecules move from an area of high concentration to low concentration, and facilitated diffusion, where molecules pass through a membrane with the help of transport proteins.
when proteins help molecules move across the membrane, it it called Facilitated Diffusion
proteins
The protein you are referring to is likely a transporter protein, which is responsible for facilitating the transport of specific molecules across the cell membrane. These transporter proteins bind to their target molecules on one side of the membrane and undergo a conformational change to transport the molecules to the other side. Examples include glucose transporters and ion channels.
A carrier protein helps transport molecules across a cell membrane by binding to specific molecules and changing shape to move them across the membrane.
Two examples of passive transport are simple diffusion, where molecules move across a membrane from an area of high concentration to low concentration, and facilitated diffusion, where molecules move across a membrane with the help of specific transport proteins.

Transport proteins must be peripheral proteins because they need to be able to move within the cell membrane to facilitate the transport of molecules across the membrane. Peripheral proteins are not embedded within the lipid bilayer of the membrane, allowing them to move more freely and interact with molecules on both sides of the membrane. This mobility is essential for transport proteins to effectively transport molecules across the cell membrane.
Yes, in an isotonic solution the movement of molecules across the membrane will stop.

Carrier proteins facilitate the passive transport of molecules across a membrane by binding to specific molecules on one side of the membrane and changing shape to transport the molecules across to the other side. This process does not require energy and is driven by the concentration gradient of the molecules.
No, facilitated diffusion does not require energy for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane.
Facilitated diffusion does not require energy for the transportation of molecules across the cell membrane.
Facilitated diffusion does not require energy to transport molecules across the cell membrane.
No, passive transport does not require ATP for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane.
