Question

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

Explanation:

Pinocytosis is the process by which cells take in extracellular fluid and dissolved solutes. It is a form of endocytosis, where the cell membrane invaginates to form a vesicle that pinches off into the cell. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi - permeable membrane. Passive transport includes diffusion and osmosis and does not require energy input. Diffusion is the movement of substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Pinocytosis requires energy and is not a form of passive transport or diffusion or osmosis.

Answer:

B. Endocytosis
