Because phagocytosis in the endocytosis on solid particles, while pinocytocis is the endocytosis of liquid particles. Liquid particles can be compacted into smaller vesicles then solid particles.

What does an goigi body do?

The Golgi apparatus is a membrane-bound structure with a single membrane. It is actually a stack of membrane-bound vesicles that are important in packaging macromolecules for transport elsewhere in the cell. The stack of larger vesicles is surrounded by numerous smaller vesicles containing those packaged macromolecules. The enzymatic or hormonal contents of lysosomes, peroxisomes and secretory vesicles are packaged in membrane-bound vesicles at the periphery of the Golgi apparatus. for more information: http:/wwwzperiodzcellsalivezperiodzcom/cells/golgizperiodzhtm


What structure tranports proteins?

Vacuole or vesicles are used to transport proteins and other molecules out of cells. These secretory vesicles are actually a part of Golgi bodies. After synthesis, protein undergoes modifications in ER and Golgi, where it packaged in those vesicles.

How do cells obtain materials they need and get rid of waste products?

Cells receive water materials through pinocytosis and larger materials or those simply not dissolved in water are "eaten" by means of phagocytosis. Both of these require energy (ATP). Osmosis and diffusion do not because they are the natural spreading out of materials from areas w/too much to areas w/little. In other words, when drinking water, your red blood cells absorb the water effortlessly since there's a lot of water around them but not that much inside them. This is osmosis. Getting rid of cells is simply exositosis. Think "exit". Hope this helps!! :)


Do Golgi bodies produce protein?

The Golgi apparatus takes simple molecules and combines them to make molecules that are more complex. It then takes those big molecules, packages them into vesicles, and either stores them for later use or sends them out of the cell. It also builds lysosomes, creates complex sugars and sends them off in secretory vesicles.
