What is edocytosis?

Endocytosis is a process in which a cell surrounds a substance outside of the cell by extending its cell membrane and cytoplasm and then takes it into the cell. Amoeba do this in order to feed on bacteria and other tiny organisms. Certain white blood cells also do this in order to rid the body of pathogens.

What is the difference between endocytosis and exocytosis?

Endocytosis takes material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane. Exocytosis releases large amounts of material. Endocytosis: the process in which a cell membrane surrounds a particle and encloses the particle in a vesicle to bring the particle into the cell Excocytosis: the process in which a cell releases a particle by enclosing the particle in a vesicle that then moves to the cell surface and fuses with the cell membrane Endocytis is a process in the cell that happens when a cell is taking in a substance(Nutrients, Medicine, etc.) for uses inside the cell, Exocytosis is when the cell is getting rid of the waste
