Diffusion, Facilitated Diffusion & Active Transport

Simple diffusion is the process by which solutes are moved along a concentration gradient in a solution or across a semipermeable membrane

Simple diffusion is the process by which solutes move through a concentration gradient in a solution across a semipermeable membrane, without

simple slots net Unlike simple diffusion where materials pass through a membrane without the help of proteins, in facilitated transport, also called facilitated

simpleslots Solutes that cross the membrane by simple diffusion tend to be hydrophobic Examples of substances that cross the membrane by simple diffusion are the gasses
