Answer: A. Carrier

Explanation: Proteins in the cell membrane that assist with facilitated diffusion are known as carrier proteins, or transport proteins, since they carry materials across the cell membrane.

Carrier proteins bind to a molecule on one side of the membrane, change shapes to shield the molecule from the lipid bilayer, and then release the molecule on the other side of the membrane.
