Question

question 16 (1 point)
once ligand molecules bind to receptors in coated pits of a plasma membrane, the next step of receptor - mediated endocytosis would be
ligands separate from receptors, which are recycled
coated vesicle forms by endocytosis.
contents of secondary lysosome are digested and released into the cytosol
coating detaches from vesicle.
endosome fuses with primary lysosome, forming secondary lysosome

Explanation:

In receptor - mediated endocytosis, after ligand molecules bind to receptors in coated pits of a plasma membrane, the next step is the formation of a coated vesicle by endocytosis. This is a key early - stage event in the process. The other options occur later in the sequence of events in endocytosis and lysosomal processing.

Answer:

coated vesicle forms by endocytosis.
