Answer:

With the help of membrane proteins

Step-by-step explanation:

In facilitated diffusion, molecules diffuse across the plasma membrane with assistance from membrane proteins, such as channels and carriers. A concentration gradient exists for these molecules, so they have the potential to diffuse into or out of the cell by moving down it.
