Detailed explanation-1: -Endocytosis. 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: -The process that brings food into the cell during active transport is endocytosis. Endocytosis is used by some single celled organisms to collect other organisms and food particles in the environment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Phagocytosis is a type of endocytosis, which is when cells ingest molecules via active transport as opposed to molecules passively diffusing through a cell membrane.
Detailed explanation-4: -Phagocytosis consists in recognition and ingestion of particles larger than 0.5 m into a plasma membrane derived vesicle, known as phagosome. Phagocytes can ingest microbial pathogens, but importantly also apoptotic cells.
Detailed explanation-5: -Phagocytosis (literally, “cell eating”) is a form of endocytosis in which large particles, such as cells or cellular debris, are transported into the cell.
