What is facilitated transport?

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.


In what ways are active transport and facilitated diffusion similar?

Active transport and facilitated diffusion are similar in that they both involve the movement of molecules across a cell membrane, but they differ in that active transport requires energy input from the cell, while facilitated diffusion does not.
