- during endocytosis, what happens to the pocket in the cell membrane when it breaks loose from the membrane?
Brief Explanations
- In facilitated diffusion, molecules move across the cell membrane from high - to low - concentration with the help of transport proteins (channel or carrier proteins).
- Protein channels in the cell membrane provide a pathway for specific molecules (such as ions or small polar molecules) to cross the non - polar lipid bilayer of the membrane.
- True. Facilitated diffusion is a passive transport process and does not require the cell to expend energy (ATP).
- The energy - requiring process that moves material across a cell membrane against a concentration difference is called active transport.
- True. Active transport always requires transport proteins to move substances against their concentration gradient.

- Endocytosis: The cell membrane forms a pocket around the substance to be taken in, which then pinches off to form a vesicle inside the cell.
- Phagocytosis: A type of endocytosis where large particles (such as bacteria or dead cells) are engulfed by the cell. The cell membrane extends around the particle and encloses it in a vesicle.
- Exocytosis: A process where vesicles inside the cell fuse with the cell membrane and release their contents outside the cell.
- During endocytosis, when the pocket in the cell membrane breaks loose from the membrane, it forms a vesicle inside the cell that can then be transported to other parts of the cell or fused with other organelles.
