Best Answer

Cells perform endocytosis through membrane movement. Endocytosis is a type of Bulk Transport, which involves the movement of larger particles (vesicles) through the membrane in and out. Endocytosis involves Phagocytosis or Pintocytosis.

Phagocytosis: when cells engulf particles via pseudopodia ("false feet"), which is packaged in the membrane into an enclosed sac, and once inside the cell, it becomes a vacuole.

Pintocytosis: when cells GULP extracellular fluids and makes them into vesicles. The fluids are unimportant but gulped anyway for the molecules within it.

A cell conducts endocytosis is by phagocytosis and pinocytosis. During this process, cells absorb molecules. Exocytosis is the opposite process of endocytosis.

The process you are talking of is referred to as 'endocytosis', which is bulk transport into the cell.


When a cell membrane surrounds a particle encloses it into a vesicle and brings the particle into the cell this is called?

The process is called phagocytosis, which means "cell eating".


Large molecules are surrounded by the cell membrane and enter the cell?

Why is endocytosis not possible in a plant cell?

What is endocytosis? It is the absorbing of outside materials into the cell by folding inward the cell membrane. Using that fact, endocytosis clearly can't occur in a plant cell because of the cell wall.
