Facilitated diffusion moves molecules through cell membranes passively.
No. Facilitated diffusion is a type of passive transport.
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
The difference between diffusion and facilitated diffusion is that facilitated diffusion is that the molecules pass through special protein channels.
No, glucose enters a cell most rapidly through facilitated diffusion with the help of glucose transporters, such as GLUT proteins. Facilitated diffusion allows glucose to move down its concentration gradient into the cell without requiring energy.
Facilitated diffusion is an inactive mode.So no ATP cost.
simple diffusion, osmosis and facilitated diffusion.
facilitated diffusion.
Facilitated diffusion and diffusion ion channels both involve the movement of substances down a concentration gradient without requiring energy input. However, facilitated diffusion involves the assistance of carrier proteins to transport specific molecules, while diffusion ion channels are specialized proteins that form pores in cell membranes for specific ions to pass through.
Facilitated diffusion requires membrane proteins
Diffusion is the process by which particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration without the need for a transport protein. Facilitated diffusion is similar to diffusion but requires the assistance of specific transport proteins to move particles across a membrane. Both processes help maintain equilibrium within a cell or between cells and their environment.
its false, facilitated diffusion would be used on small molecules
