A large particle can enter a cell by an active transport process called?

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.


What are 2 types of active transport?

A) Active transport through special transport proteins in the plasma membrane. ATP causes these proteins to change shapes and move materials from low to high concentration. B) Bulk transport - moving large particles through the membrane by endocytosis or exocytosis.


What is the process called when a cell surrounds a large particle with pseudopodia and then engulfs it?

Phagocytosis is the process by which a cell engulfs a large particle by extending pseudopodia around it and bringing it into the cell in a membrane-bound vesicle.


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.


What are two way in which a particle that is too large to fit through the cell membrane can enter the cell?

Particles to large to pass through the cell membrane can ebter by pinocytosis (cell membrane extends to surround a liquid and forms a new vacuole) or phagocytosis (the cytoplasm extends and surrounds the particle to be ingested)

How does a large particle leave a cell by a active transport?

It requires energy, and a protein carrier molecule. The large particle binds to the protein carrier on the inside of the cell. It is then transported across the membrane as a result of a conformational change in the protein (think of it flipping), and then it is released on the outside of the cell. Again, this requires some source of energy.


How does as large particle leave a cell using active transport?

It requires energy, and a carrier protein. The large particle binds to the carrier protein on the inside of the cell. The protein then changes conformation, thus moving the particle to the outside, where it is dropped off by another conformational change in the protein.


How does a cell take in large particles how does a cell expell 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.

Does passive transport requires large amounts of energy?

No. only active transport does

passive transport


What type of molecule embedded in the cell membrance allows larger molecule to pass through the membrance by active transport?

Transport proteins allow the active transport of large molecules through the cellular membrane.
