Facilitated diffusion and active transport differ in that A) facilitated diffusion uses cell membrane proteins to move substances, whereas active transport does not. B) facilitated diffusion uses a substrate to bind to a protein carrier, whereas active transport does not. C) ATP is necessary for active transport, but not for facilitated diffusion. D)facilitated diffusion moves water across the cell membrane, whereas active transport does not. E) potential energy is required for active transport but not for facilitated diffusion

C) ATP is necessary for active transport, but not for facilitated diffusion.

One substance has no membrane transporters to move it but can diffuse freely through open leak channels if there is a concentration gradient.
