The cell is taking in substances through membrane proteins, without any energy expenditure of its own. The substances naturally follow their concentration gradient. However, they must go through the protein channels, because they are too large to squeeze through the cell membrane. This process is called

The right answer is facilitated diffusion.

Facilitated diffusion is a diffusion mechanism facilitated by membrane transporters. it's the spontaneous passage of molecules or ions (like the passive diffusion) through a biological membrane through transport molecules (unlike passive diffusion). This process does not consume energy (like the passive diffusion) and therefore does not involve active transportation.
