Chapter 7, Problem 18TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Endocytosis is a mechanism in the cell where bulk transport of molecules and proteins takes place by engulfing the process across the lipid bilayer, which is impermeable to the molecules and proteins. Three types of endocytosis are known as phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor-mediated endocytosis.

- Secretory vesicles fuse with the cell membrane to release their contents to the outside of the cell. In this process, the membrane of the secretory vesicle becomes part of the cell membrane. Because small pieces of membrane are continually added to the cell membrane, we would expect the cell membrane to become larger and larger as secretion continues. However, the cell membrane stays the same size. Explain how this happens.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is NOT a function of lysosomes? a. digesting particles taken in by endocytosis b. help in the formation of cell membranes c. degrading worn-out or nonfunctional organelles d. breaking down bone to release calcium ions into the bloodarrow_forwardCell structure and tissue organization is mainly determined by the arrangements of the three cytoskeletal elements.
