TRANSPORT INTO AND OUT OF THE CELL

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ transport allows large particles in enter and exit the cell.
A
Active
B
Passive
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Endocytosis is a type of active transport that moves particles, such as large molecules, parts of cells, and even whole cells, into a cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cells use exocytosis to secrete molecules too large to pass through the cell membrane by any other mechanism.

Detailed explanation-3: -Phagocytosis. Phagocytosis (literally, “cell eating”) is a form of endocytosis in which large particles, such as cells or cellular debris, are transported into the cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Endocytosis and exocytosis are the processes by which cells move materials into or out of the cell that are too large to directly pass through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane.

Detailed explanation-5: -The active transport of small molecules or ions across a cell membrane is generally carried out by transport proteins that are found in the membrane. Larger molecules such as starch can also be actively transported across the cell membrane by processes called endocytosis and exocytosis.
