Specific chemicals are bound by carrier proteins and transferred on one side of the membrane. The conformational changes they go through next enable the molecule to cross the membrane and exit on the other side.
How carrier protein facilitate the diffusion?
When a molecule diffuses, it usually moves from a high concentration location to a low concentration area until the concentration is the same everywhere in the space.
Contrary to channel proteins, another form of membrane transport protein that is less selective in the molecules it transports, carriers are proteins that move a particular material through intracellular compartments, into the extracellular fluid, or across cells. Carrier proteins are found in lipid bilayer cell structures such cell membranes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts, just like other membrane transport proteins.
Therefore, carrier proteins can facilitate the diffusion of glucose or other substances into the cell.

<h2>Angiosperms </h2>
Explanation:
Angiosperms are the most diverse group of plants, some statements which reflect angiosperm adaptations to life on land:
- Flowers attract animal pollinators carrying pollen from other plants of the same species
- Fruits aid in the dispersal of seeds by wind or by animals that carry or eat the fruits
- In many angiosperms, the male gametophyte contained in a pollen grain can be transported many miles away by wind or animal pollinators
- Floral parts of the sporophyte protect the reduced female gametophyte from drying out and from UV radiation
- Seeds protect and nourish plant embryos, and fruits protect the seeds
- Seeds enable plant embryos to be dispersed long distances from the parent plant via wind or animals

It is twisted to create a greater surface area for digesting and to increase the nutrient absorption.
All cells are similar in composition and metabolic activities.
