A: Facilitated diffusion differs from simple diffusion in that it crosses a membrane with the aid of passive transport proteins embedded in the membrane. Both types of diffusion are the movement of particles in solution from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration.
facilitated diffusion is a passive process the solutes move down the concentration gradient and don t use extra cellular energy to move channel proteins are another type of facilitated diffusion that allow the selective transport of one type of hydrophilic molecule across the cell membrane
