The process by which substances are released by a cell is called exocytosis.
Endocytosis is the process by which cells take in substances from outside the cell by engulfing them in a vesicle, while exocytosis is the process by which cells release substances from inside the cell by fusing vesicles with the cell membrane. In summary, endocytosis brings substances into the cell, while exocytosis releases substances out of the cell.
Endocytosis and exocytosis are both cellular processes involved in the transport of materials across the cell membrane. In endocytosis, the cell takes in substances by forming vesicles from the cell membrane, while in exocytosis, the cell releases substances by fusing vesicles with the cell membrane. One key difference is that endocytosis is involved in bringing substances into the cell, whereas exocytosis is involved in expelling substances out of the cell.

Substances that a cell needs to respire include glucose and oxygen. When the body releases these, it is called aerobic respiration.
toxins, waste products, and excess ions it accumulates during normal cellular processes. This is accomplished through processes like exocytosis, where the cell releases these substances out of the cell membrane to maintain a balanced and healthy internal environment. Failure to release these substances can lead to cellular dysfunction and eventual cell death.
No, secretion and absorption are different processes. Secretion is the release of substances from a cell or gland, while absorption is the uptake of substances into a cell or the body.
The process that releases energy to convert substances to simpler products is called catabolism. During catabolism, complex molecules are broken down into simpler molecules, releasing energy in the process which can be used by the cell for various metabolic functions.
Exocytosis is the process by which cells release substances outside of the cell, while endocytosis is the process by which cells take in substances from outside the cell. In exocytosis, vesicles fuse with the cell membrane to release their contents, while in endocytosis, the cell membrane engulfs substances to bring them into the cell.
Endocytosis is the process by which cells take in substances by engulfing them with the cell membrane, forming vesicles that bring the substances into the cell. Exocytosis, on the other hand, is the process by which cells expel substances by fusing vesicles containing the substances with the cell membrane, releasing the substances outside the cell. Both processes involve the movement of materials across the cell membrane but in opposite directions.
