Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When cells form a vesicle to release materials, which form of transport is occurring?
A
Endocytosis
B
Exocytosis
C
Facilitated Diffusion
D
Osmosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Exocytosis is the process by which cells move materials from within the cell into the extracellular fluid. Exocytosis occurs when a vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane, allowing its contents to be released outside the cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Exocytosis (/ˌɛksoʊsaɪˈtoʊsɪs/) is a form of active transport and bulk transport in which a cell transports molecules (e.g., neurotransmitters and proteins) out of the cell (exo-+ cytosis). As an active transport mechanism, exocytosis requires the use of energy to transport material.

Detailed explanation-3: -Exocytosis is the fusion of secretory vesicles with the plasma membrane and results in the discharge of vesicle content into the extracellular space and the incorporation of new proteins and lipids into the plasma membrane.

Detailed explanation-4: -The process of exocytosis involves vesicles fusing with plasma membranes and releasing their contents. Endocytosis and exocytosis are both active transport processes.
