Endocytosis is used when large materials can't get themselves in through the semi-permeable membrane. Exocytosis is used when the large material want to get out of the cell.

Which layer controls selective permeability?

The cell membrane controls selective permeability. Larger substances can enter the cell through endocytosis and exit through exocytosis.


Endocytisis and exocytosis are similar?

similar but opposite. endocytosis is the way food and packets of liquids enter a cell. theres specific names pinocytosis is the liquids entering and phagocytosis is the foods entering. exocytosis is the opposite. the stuff that the cell wants to get rid of gets crammed into a vacuole and shoved out the cell. both processes involve the cell membrane. when endocytosis takes place, the food or liquids are covered in a bit've membrane. when exocytosis, the cells 'crap' is placed in a kinda packet surrounded by the same stuff as a cell membrane. so when this packet comes in touch with the membrane, it joins it, flushing all the stuff that is in it. out.


How does a cell expel large particles?

EXOCYTOSIS-When a large particle must be removed from the cell, the cell uses a different process. In EXOCYTOSIS,vesicles are formed at the endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi complex and carry the particles to the cell membrane.ENDOCYTOSIS-In ENDOCYTOSIS, the cell membrane surrounds a particle and encloses it in a vesicle. This is how large particles, such as other cells, can be brought into a cell.They both require the use of ATP though, like active transport. However, passive transport doesn't require ATP.Phagocytosis is the cell that takes in large particles. This is used in biology.


What is transcytosis?

Is a coated protein vesicle that transports completely across the cell and released by exocytosis on the opposite side.

what uses vesicles to move substances out of a cell?

It is called exocytosis, which is defined as "a process by which the contents of a cell vacuole are released to the exterior through fusion of the vacuole membrane with the cell membrane." The opposite of exocytosis is endocytosis.
