Naturally, molecules move from an area of high concentration to low concentration without the need of energy. This type of movement is passive transport. Molecules with strong electrical charges such as ions cannot simply diffuse across the cell membrane. Irrespective of their size, their charge prevents them from moving freely across the cell membrane.
In facilitated transport, also called facilitated diffusion, materials diffuse across the plasma membrane with the help of membrane proteins. A concentration gradient exists that would allow these materials to diffuse into the cell without expending cellular energy.he most direct forms of membrane transport are passive. Passive transport is a naturally occurring phenomenon and does not require the cell to exert any of its energy to accomplish the movement. In passive transport, substances move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
