Phagocytosis and pinocytosis are both types of endocytosis, which occurs when a substance is brought into the cell. Phagocytosis is called cell eating, while pinocytosis is referred to as cell drinking.
They both involve taking in material from outside.
Plasma Membrane
The 2 types of endocytosis are pinocytosis("cell drinking) in which liquids are taken up by the cell and then there is phagocytosis (cell-eating) in which the cell engulfs certain substances.
passive transport
The process of eating is also called Phagocytosis. The process of cell 'drinking' is called Pinocytosis
Pinocytosis is the introduction of fluids into a cell by invagination of the cell membrane, followed by formation of vesicles within the cells. Phagocytosis is the engulfing and ingestion of bacteria or other foreign bodies by phagocytes.

Endocytosis, phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and exocytosis.
Endocytosis
Phagocytosis involves the cell taking in solid particles, while pinocytosis involves taking in fluids. In both, the cell engulfs the material with its membrane, creating vesicles.
