There are two types of endocytosis: Phagocytosis (cell-eating) and Pinocytosis (cell-drinking). Endocytosis is a process in which a cell fully engulfs materials from the outside and fuses them to its plasma membrane. These materials are usually the larger of materials since they aren't small enough to cross the cell's plasma membrane by some sort of diffusion. Endocytosis is an energy using process in which cells absorb molecules by engulfing them.
