Q

What does semi permeable membrane

A

Allows certain subtances to pass through it

17
Q

Distinguish between exocytosis and endocytosis

A

Endocytosis is the cell that takes in a substance and exocytosis uses cell vesicles to release their contents

18
Q

It is better to have a ____ cell with a ____ surface area
