Document Summary

Largest molecules transported by passive and active transport are the size of amino acids or glucose. Exocytosis and endocytosis (phagocytosis: move larger molecules and particles into and out of the cell. Substances are shuttled into, out of, and within a cell through vesicles. In exocytosis, substances are directed out of a cell to be secreted by fusing a vesicle to the cell membrane. In endocytosis, substances are engulfed into a cell by the formation of a vesicle around them. Vesicle membrane fuses with pm, releasing contents to cell. Proteins in vesicle membrane become part of pm. Exocytosis at a synapse membrane: vesicles containing neurotransmitter arrive at the cell, ca2+ ion triggers the fusion of the vesicle to the, the neurotransmitter is released out of the cell membrane. Encloses materials outside cell in plasma membrane: pockets inward and forms endocytic vesicle on cytoplasmic side. Two main forms: bulk phase (pinocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis. Molecules bind to receptor proteins on outer cell surface.
