Facilitated Diffusion:

A type of transport in which a substance moves  from an area of high concentration to an area of low  concentration with the aid of special transport proteins.

Active transport :

A type of transport in which a substance moves from  an area of low concentration to an area of high  concentration through the use of cellular energy.

Simple Diffusion :

A type of transport in which a substance moves  spontaneously from an area of high concentration  to an area of low concentration.

Explanation:

Simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport are three types of cellular transport that occur across cell membranes.

   Simple diffusion is a type of transport in which a substance moves spontaneously from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

   Facilitated diffusion is a type of transport in which a substance moves from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration with the aid of special transport proteins.

   Active transport is a type of transport in which a substance moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration through the use of cellular energy, or ATP
