Simple diffusion vs Facilitated diffusion

simple diffusion vs facilitated diffusion

Diffusion mean the movement of the molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration Based on presence of facilitator it categorise as the Simple diffusion and the Facilitated diffusion. There is difference between the simple and the facilitated diffusion.

	Simple diffusion	Facilitated diffusion
requirement	Simple diffusion occur without the   any aid of the facilitate molecule (Chanel protein or carrier protein)	Facilitated diffusion requires the Facilitate molecule to happen the diffusion,.
Rate	Simple diffusion is relatively slow than the facilitated diffusion.	Facilitated diffusion is relatively faster than the simple diffusion
Type	Simple diffusion is a passive activity.	Facilitated diffusion is may be active or the passive its depends.
Energy	Simple diffusion does not require the energy	Facilitated diffusion may require or not require the energy.
Type of particle	Simple diffusion transports small particles and non polar molecular.	Facilitated diffusion transport the large molecule and the polar molecule.
