The Process of Endocytosis

The Process of Endocytosis is a part of the VCE Biology area of study ‘How Do Cellular Processes Work?’ and subtopic ‘Plasma Membranes’.

Endocytosis is a mechanism of cellular transport that moves molecules, parts and whole cells into a cell. There are different types of endocytosis, which include:

  • Phagocytosis: the process by which large particles are transported into a cell.
  • Pinocytosis: the process by which the cell gains molecules required for extracellular fluid.

So What is Endocytosis?

This video explains the above concepts in more detail.
