What is the similarity between simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion?

they are both types of passive transport which means they require no energy. They both work with the concentration gradient which means they go from a high concentration area to a low concentration area. The differences are simple diffusion just goes though the membrane of a cell while facilitated diffusion uses a protein channel

Simple diffusion: it is the process where molecules move from a area of high concentration to an are of lower concentration. There is no energy needed in simple diffusion. For example when sodium is highly concentration in a cell, it moves outside of the cell where sodium is less concentration. it takes no energy as simple diffusion is random and molecules move according to their concentration.

Answer from: conner87

Both are passive transport

Explanation:

Diffusion is when molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration. There’s no energy needed, and it is considered as passive transport. This includes fats, oils and water that can directly across the cell membrane.

Facilitated diffusion is where molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration. These molecules need help from the protein channel (molecules that are large to pass through the membrane). These molecules include sugar, carbohydrates etc. The protein channel acts as a door.

Americium-241 undergoes fission to produce three neutrons per fission event. if a neutron-absorbing material is mixed in with this sample so that the rate of neutron production drops down to 1.8 neutrons per fission event, which will be effective at achieving a critical mass? check all that apply. remove a deflective shield surrounding the sample. remove absorbent material mixed in with the sample. compress the sample of americium-241.

)benzene and toluene form nearly ideal solutions. consider an equimolar solution of benzene and toluene. at 20 °c the vapour pressures of pure benzene and toluene are 9.9 kpa and 2.9 kpa, respectively. the solution is boiled by reducing the external pressure below the vapour pressure. calculate (i) the pressure when boiling begins, (ii) the composition of each component in the vapour, and (iii) the vapour pressure when only a few drops of liquid remain. assume that the rate of vaporization is low enough for the temperature to remain constant at 20 °c.
