Question

unlike simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion requires energy expenditure by the cell.
true or false
true false

Explanation:

Simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion are both passive transport processes, meaning they do not require the cell to expend energy (ATP). Facilitated diffusion uses transport proteins to move substances down their concentration gradient, just like simple diffusion, but it helps with larger or charged molecules. Active transport is the process that requires energy. So the statement is false.

Answer:

False
