Facilitated Diffusion - an overview simple diffusion

Facilitated Diffusion: Facilitated diffusion is the process of spontaneous transport of molecules or ions across a cell's membrane via specific trans-membrane

simple slot Facilitated diffusion is directed by the specificity between solute and carrier molecules Additional forces, Besides the concentration gradient Simple diffusion takes place when uncharged molecules with a certain degree of lipophilicity cross the lipid bilayer This process is strictly driven by a During passive transport, materials move by simple diffusion or by facilitated diffusion through the membrane, down their concentration gradient Water
