A type of active transport where the cell surrounds and take in a substance; forms a vesicle
A
Concentration
B
Endocytosis
C
Passive Transport
D
Exocytosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The active-transport process by which a cell surrounds a large particle, such as a large protein, and encloses the particle in a vesicle to bring the particle into the cell is called endocytosis (EN doh sie TOH sis).

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

Detailed explanation-4: -It is a mode of active transport as the cell requires energy. Endo means inside. During endocytosis, a cell utilizes the cell membrane for engulfing an object, which is present outside of the cell. This process requires effort by the cell, so it needs to use the energy (ATP).

Detailed explanation-5: -The three types of cell Transport are: Simple Diffusion. Osmosis. Facilitated Diffusion.
