Detailed explanation-1: -The term “endocytosis” was coined by Christian deDuve in 1963 to include both the ingestion of large particles (such as bacteria) and the uptake of fluids or macromolecules in small vesicles. The former of these activities is known as phagocytosis (cell eating) and the latter as pinocytosis (cell drinking).
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -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: -Phagocytosis is also called cell eating. It refers to intake of solid food particles by an animal cell.
Detailed explanation-5: -Both phagocytosis and pinocytosis are forms of endocytosis.
