Final answer:

Facilitated diffusion and active transport are both forms of carrier-mediated transport, but they differ in their direction of movement and energy requirement.


Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion and active transport are both examples of carrier-mediated transport. While facilitated diffusion moves a substance down its concentration gradient using carrier proteins, active transport pumps molecules against their concentration gradient requiring energy from ATP.
