In which process does the cell used a vesicle to move molecules into the cell?
Endocytosis
Is the white blood cell disposin of a worn out red blood cell by endocytosis or phagocytosis?
Phagocytosis
What is the movement of particles into the cell?
The movement of large particles of solid food or whole cells into the cell is called phagocytosis. Phagocytosis occurs in three separate steps.
What is another name for cell eating?
The word that means the same thing as cell eating is phagocytosis. The outcome is the ingestion of particulate matter, such as bacteria, from the extracellular fluid.
What is a complex molecule that is embedded in the cell membrane that helpss move substances move into and out of a cell?
Transport protein
How do substances get in and out of a cell if they are to big to pass through the cell membrane?
Do you mean how do substances move through a cell membrane if they are too big to transport by passive transport?If so, a cell uses active transport to move large particles in and out of a cell. Active transport includes endocytosis, pinocytosis, and phagocytosis.
2 type of endocytosis?
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.
What controls which substances can move in and out of cells?
Cell membrane controls which substances can move in and out of a cell. It is the dynamic boundary of cell
In which process does the cell used a vesicle to move molecules into the cell?
Endocytosis
A defense cell engulfing a bacterium illustrates?
Phagocytosis
Is the white blood cell disposin of a worn out red blood cell by endocytosis or phagocytosis?
Phagocytosis

An organism with a cell wall would have the most difficulty doing which process?
Phagocytosis.
What is another name for cell eating?
The word that means the same thing as cell eating is phagocytosis. The outcome is the ingestion of particulate matter, such as bacteria, from the extracellular fluid.
What is the difference between the phagocytosis and exocytosis?
Phagocytosis(active transport and part of endocytosis) is the process by which a cell-often a phagocyte or a protist-engulfs a solid particle to form an internal vesicle known as a phagosome, HOWEVER, Exocytosis is a form of active transport in which a cell transports molecules (such as proteins) out of the cell.
Process often thought of as cell eating is?
phagocytosis- cell eating pinocytosis- cell drinking
What is a word example using phago- as a prefix?
One example of a word using "phago-" as a prefix is "phagocyte." A phagocyte is a type of cell in the immune system that engulfs and destroys foreign substances, such as bacteria and viruses, by the process of phagocytosis.
