Facilitated diffusion defines he movement of materials along a concentration gradient through protein channels.
A concentration gradient of a substance drives the movement of that substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The steeper the concentration gradient, the faster the movement of the substance, requiring less energy to transport it. If the concentration on both sides of the gradient is equal, there is no net movement of the substance.
Both concentration gradient and diffusion involve the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. In concentration gradient, the difference in concentration drives the movement of particles, while in diffusion, the random movement of particles leads to their spread across a concentration gradient. Both processes aim to reach equilibrium by balancing the distribution of particles.
The energy source for co-transport is typically the concentration gradient of one substance that is established by an active transport process. This concentration gradient drives the movement of another substance against its own concentration gradient through a symporter protein.

Movement across a concentration gradient occurs until equilibrium is reached, where the concentration of a substance is the same on both sides of the gradient. The rate of movement depends on factors such as the size of the gradient, temperature, and properties of the substance.
The movement of substances against their concentration gradient is an active process.
A concentration gradient of a substance drives the movement of that substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The steeper the concentration gradient, the faster the movement of the substance, requiring less energy to transport it.

Yes, active transport involves the movement of molecules against the concentration gradient.
Going with the concentration gradient is basically the process of diffusion. Molecules going from a low concentration to a high concentration would be going with the concentration gradient. Going against the concentration gradient would be the movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration
The movement of molecules across a membrane down the concentration gradient is a passive process.
