Did you mean exocytosis? if so, the definition is 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.

Which structures join with the cell's membrane during exoctosis?

In exocytosis a vesicle docks and fuses with the plasma membrane with the aid of a group of proteins called SNARE complexes.This will involve a specific SNARE complex on the vesicle side (called a v-SNARE) binding to a specific SNARE complex on the plasma membrane itself.


Type of active transport that moves large particles into a cell through vesicles?

Endocytosis - the way in which cells take in food and other materials. The cells membrane wraps around the particle it needs on its outside, ingesting it. This then becomes trapped within a vacuole inside the cells cytoplasm where it is broken down, digested, and absorbed by enzymes.
