Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Waste products are moved out of the cell by ____
A
endocytosis
B
diffusion
C
exocytosis
D
osmosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Exocytosis occurs when a vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane, allowing its contents to be released outside the cell. Exocytosis serves the following purposes: Removing toxins or waste products from the cell’s interior: Cells create waste or toxins that must be removed from the cell to maintain homeostasis.

Detailed explanation-2: -In exocytosis, waste material is enveloped in a membrane and fuses with the interior of the plasma membrane. This fusion opens the membranous envelope on the exterior of the cell and the waste material is expelled into the extracellular space.

Detailed explanation-3: -Exocytosis occurs when a cell produces substances for export, such as a protein, or when the cell is getting rid of a waste product or a toxin. Newly made membrane proteins and membrane lipids are moved on top the plasma membrane by exocytosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Purpose of Exocytosis Carbon dioxide and water are removed from these cells during exocytosis. Signaling molecules generated by cells include hormones and neurotransmitters. They are transported to other cells after escaping from the cell via exocytosis.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
