And so now it moves down its potential gradient. So we essentially remove that force that existed due to these hydrophobic regions. Remove that force, we only have the electric force. So now these will move down their potential gradient from a high electric potential to a low electric potential. Now, because these channels essentially create these passageways that essentially lack the hydrophobic core, what these channels do is they facilitate the spontaneous diffusion of these ions, in some cases, molecules down their electrochemical gradient. So this type of transport is known as facilitated the fusion.
