Detailed explanation-1: -Phagocytosis is a special form of endocytosis in which large particles such as microorganisms and dead cells are ingested via large endocytic vesicles called phagosomes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Endocytosis (endo = internal, cytosis = transport mechanism) is a general term for the various types of active transport that move particles into a cell by enclosing them in a vesicle made out of plasma membrane.

Detailed explanation-3: -Both endocytosis and exocytosis are active transport processes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Exocytosis is a form of bulk transport during which large numbers of molecules are transported out of the cell. In exocytosis, a vesicle (a small, membrane-bound compartment) containing the molecules to be released fuses with the cell membrane, and the contents of the vesicle are expelled.

Detailed explanation-5: -Endocytosis involves cells taking in substances from outside the cell by engulfing them in a vesicle derived from the cell membrane. Exocytosis is where cells shift materials, such as waste products, from inside the cell to the extracellular space.
