The statement that is NOT true about facilitated diffusion is: It requires energy.
- Facilitated diffusion refers to the diffusion of solutes/ions across biological membranes from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
- Facilitated diffusion occurs through transport proteins found in the plasma membrane.
- Transport proteins involved in facilitated diffusion include channel proteins (e.g., aquaporins), gated channel proteins (ion channels), and carrier proteins (e.g., uniporters).
- Facilitated diffusion does not require energy molecules (e.g., ATP molecules) to transport molecules across biological membranes, whereas active transport requires energy to move substances move against a concentration gradient.
