Answer:

true

This takes place when molecules diffuse across the cell membrane by travelling through specific transport proteins. It occurs down a concentration gradient - molecules move from an area of high to lower concentration. This does not require a supply of energy because diffusion is a spontaneous process.

Diffusion is a form of passive transportation from region of high concentration to low concentration. it doesn't require energy. Just difference in concentration is all it needs to perform Diffusion.
