What is the main difference between simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion?
The main difference is that simple diffusion is from high to low concentration, while facilitated diffusion is from low to high.
How do molecules cross the membrane in simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion?
In simple diffusion, molecules cross the lipid bilayer, whereas in facilitated diffusion, they cross through transport proteins.
What is the energy requirement for simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion?
Simple diffusion does not require ATP energy, while facilitated diffusion does.
