Question

2 multiple choice 1 point pinocytosis is a type of: osmosis endocytosis passive transport diffusion

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Pinocytosis is a process where cells take in extracellular fluid and dissolved solutes by forming small vesicles. It is a form of endocytosis, which is the general term for the uptake of substances into the cell by the formation of a vesicle from the plasma - membrane. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi - permeable membrane. Passive transport includes diffusion and facilitated diffusion and does not require energy input. Diffusion is the movement of substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Answer:

B. Endocytosis
