Question

the process often referred to as \cellular eating\ is
multiple choice
active transport.
diffusion.
phagocytosis.
osmosis.
pinocytosis.

Explanation:

Phagocytosis is the process by which cells engulf and digest large particles or other cells, which is often called "cellular eating". Active transport is the movement of molecules across a cell - membrane against a concentration gradient. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi - permeable membrane. Pinocytosis is "cellular drinking", the uptake of extracellular fluid and dissolved solutes.

Answer:

C. phagocytosis
