Question
what type of transport does facilitated diffusion use?
accelerated
active
passive
Facilitated diffusion is a type of transport where molecules move across a cell membrane from an area of higher concentration to lower concentration, and it does not require energy input. This fits the definition of passive transport (as passive transport moves substances down their concentration gradient without energy, unlike active transport which needs energy). "Accelerated" is not a standard transport type category, and "active" requires energy, which facilitated diffusion does not use.
