Question
which of the following best describes the transport process in the above figure? (note the direction of the arrows). endocytosis exocytosis diffusion osmosis
Exocytosis is a process where vesicles fuse with the cell - membrane and release their contents outside the cell. In the figure, we see a vesicle fusing with the cell - membrane and releasing green particles outside, which is characteristic of exocytosis. Endocytosis is the opposite (taking substances into the cell), diffusion is the movement of substances from high to low concentration without involving vesicles, and osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi - permeable membrane.
