i believe you're referring to the process of exocytosis, when the contents of the vesicle are excreted into the area outside the cell as the vesicle fuses with the phospholipid bilayer and becomes part of it.

Vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane during exocytosis. Exocytosis is an energy consumption process where cells move contents out of secretory vessels into extra cellular membranes.

In which process do cells release large amounts of material?

Exocytosis is a process by which a cell releases large amounts of material. In this process a cell takes material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane.


What process of active transport is the reverse of endocytosis?

Osmosis, diffusion, and facilitated diffusion are all opposites of active transport.


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


What processes divide the cell nucleus and its contents?

Mitosis is the process that divides the cell nucleus and it's contents.


What transports solid particles into a cell?

Cells can take in solids by the process of endocytosis.The cell membrane (plasma membrane) folds in, surrounding the solids, and pinches off to form a vacuole in the cytoplasm. The cell then secretes enzymes into the vacuole, and any digestible compounds in the solids are broken down and absorbed across the vacuole membrane into the cytoplasm.There are two types of endocytosis:if solids are taken in, the process is phagocytosis;if the vacuole contents are entirely liquid, it is pinocytosis.Endocytosis - Phagocytosis

What book transport process moves materials into cells?

The process that moves materials into cells is called endocytosis. During endocytosis, the cell membrane surrounds particles or substances outside the cell, forming a vesicle. The vesicle then fuses with the cell membrane and releases its contents into the cell.

What happen to a cell during the process of exocytosis?

It reorganizes its cytoskeleton to reposition its secretory vesicles at the plasma membrane. The vesicles then fuse to the plasma membrane using a complex interaction between proteins of the vesicle membrane and proteins of the cell membrane, and a realignment of the lipids of the membranes. This creates a fusion pore, which rapidly expands to expose the vesicle contents to the extracellular milieu. This releases the vesicle contents into the extracellular space.
