Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Movement of materials through a vesicle into the cell that requires energy is
A
exocytosis
B
endocytosis
C
osmosis
D
simple diffusion
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Endocytosis is the process of capturing a substance or particle from outside the cell by engulfing it with the cell membrane, and bringing it into the cell. Exocytosis describes the process of vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane and releasing their contents to the outside of the cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -Both endocytosis and exocytosis need energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate or ATP, used in the movement of the substances in and out of the cell. There are three types of endocytosis-phagocytosis, pinocytosis and receptor-mediated endocytosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Endocytosis. 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.
