16
Q

A type of transport because the molecules will travel together in the same direction in relation to eachother

A

Symport

17
Q

Cell eating is a process by which cell take in large or solid particles through ingolding of the cell membranr to form endocytosis.

A

Phagocytosis

18
Q

Cell drinking is a process of taking in fluids into the cell by invagination of the cell membrane.

A

Pinocytosis

19
Q

The plasma membrane becomes indented and forms a pit. The pit then closes and pinches off to forma vesicles, which eventually carries the molecules inside the cytoplasm.

A

Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis

20
Q

Materials for export, it is the opposite of endocytosis.

A

Exocytosis
