5.4 Bulk Transport

Question 1

Endocytosis

Answer 1

a type of active transport that moves particles, such as large molecules, parts of cells, and even whole cells, into a
cell.

Question 2

clathrin

Answer 2

stabilizes this membrane’s section.

Question 3

pinocytosis

Answer 3

“cell drinking”.
detaching the cell membrane from the cell wall and constricting the cell membrane when a plant cell is in a hypertonic solution

Question 4

potocytosis

Answer 4

variation of pinocytosis that uses a different
coating protein (caveolin) on the plasma membrane’s cytoplasmic side

Question 5

receptor-mediated endocytosis

Answer 5

clathrin attaches to the plasma membrane’s cytoplasmic side
