Facilitated diffusion is a form of transport where molecules are too large to diffuse through a membrane on their own. Facilitated diffusion involves .
Channels can be "leak" channels where molecules can move, or they can be gated. Voltage-gated channels respond to changes in whereas ligand-gated channels respond to .
