How do substances get in and out of a cell if they are to big to pass through the cell membrane?

Do you mean how do substances move through a cell membrane if they are too big to transport by passive transport?If so, a cell uses active transport to move large particles in and out of a cell. Active transport includes endocytosis, pinocytosis, and phagocytosis.


What are the two types of active transport?

The two major parts of active transport are endocytosis and exocytosis. Endocytosis is taking material into the cell by means of infoldings in the cell membrane. There are two types of endocytosis: phagocytosis (large molecules) and pinocytosis (small molecules). Exocytosis is the release of materials from a cell. The vacuole membrane and the cell membrane fuse together and the contents are released.


What are five transport mechanism where by metabolites nutrient or ions cross the cell membrane?

There are many forms of membrane and cell transport. These are the basic transport mechanisms in a prokaryotic animal cell.

Is phagocytosis active or passive transport?

During phagocytosis, the phagocyte is involved with engulfing a smaller particle of organism (or another cell). There is no passive or active transport as such. The process involved enveloping the smaller particle with the cell membrane of the host and bringing it into its interior. There is no diffusion or related passive process involved.

Is when extensions of the plasma membrane surround a macro-molecule?

Phagocytosis. Phagocytosis is when the plasma membrane surrounds a particle, engulfs it, and transports it inside a cell.
