Passive Transport
The molecule that can bind to a receptor protein is called a ligand.
The special molecule is called ATP, which stands for adenosine triphosphate. ATP provides the necessary energy to power transport proteins in the cell membrane to move molecules across it.
The solute molecule, when passing through the membrane passively using a carrier protein, is called the substrate. The solute, or substrate will bind to the carrier protein from the outside, the carrier protein changes conformation, and the substrate is exposed to the inside of the membrane.
the processe is called osmosis Try again, this time use the term "facilitated transport" since a protein molecule is helping.
passive transport
The process is called facilitated diffusion. It is a type of passive transport that involves the movement of molecules across a membrane with the help of specific proteins called carrier proteins or channel proteins. These proteins assist the molecules in crossing the membrane by providing a pathway.

Facilitated diffusion uses proteins to move a molecule across the cell membrane without energy.

A membrane protein with a carbohydrate chain is called glycoprotein
