  2. Exocytosis is the natural process of transporting molecules from within a cell to the outside space. In this process, the vesicles containing the fluid enclosed by a lipid bilayer fuse with the plasma membrane to release their contents outside the cell.

    Exocytosis is the process of moving materials from within a cell to the exterior of the cell. This process requires energy and is therefore a type of active transport. Exocytosis is an important process of plant and animal cells as it performs the opposite function of endocytosis.

  4. 2.17: Exocytosis and Endocytosis - Biology LibreTexts

    Exocytosis describes the process of vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane and releasing their contents to the outside of the cell. Both endocytosis and exocytosis are active transport processes.

    Exocytosis is the process by which cells release substances outside the cell through vesicles. It is essential for communication and maintaining homeostasis. Exocytosis involves the fusion of vesicles with the cell membrane, allowing the contents to be expelled into the extracellular space.

  6. Endocytosis and Exocytosis - Science Notes and Projects

    sciencenotes.org/endocytosis-and-exocytosis

    Endocytosis and exocytosis are cellular processes that transport materials into and out of a cell, respectively. Both are examples of bulk transport, meaning they move large molecules or many small molecules en masse through the cell membrane.

  7. Exocytosis is a means of membrane transportation, where the transport vesicles incorporate or fuse with the plasma membrane to exclude the materials out of the cell via constitutive, regulatory and lysosome mediated secretory pathway.

  8. Exocytosis is the fusion of secretory vesicles with the plasma membrane, which causes the release of vesicle contents into the extracellular space and the integration of new proteins and lipids into the plasma membrane.

    The reverse process of moving material into a cell is the process of exocytosis. Exocytosis is the opposite of the processes discussed in the last section in that its purpose is to expel material from the cell into the extracellular fluid.

  10. Exocytosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exocytosis

    Exocytosis is the process by which a large amount of molecules are released; thus it is a form of bulk transport. Exocytosis occurs via secretory portals at the cell plasma membrane called porosomes.

    Exocytosis is a form of active transport that allows cells to move large molecules into the extracellular membrane, where they can be utilized in various ways. This is a critical process for all living things, from plants and invertebrates to protozoa and human beings.
