How does facilitated diffusion differ from simple diffusion

Biology
1 answer:
Dafna1 [17]3 years ago
4 0
Facilitated diffusion is the process of moving molecules across the membrane with the help of transport proteins to make the transportation of the molecules a lot easier and smoother.

Simple diffusion, however, does not have the assistance of transport proteins. Simple diffusion takes place when molecules move from a high concentration (of said molecule) to a low concentration. 

The difference: Facilitated diffusion has the help of transport proteins while simple diffusion does not. 

Hope I could help! If this isn't the answer you are looking for, or just...completely wrong, please let me know!
