Question

In the diagram which of the following processes are shown in Amoeba?

• A. Phagocytosis
• B. Pinocytosis
• C. Exocytosis
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

All of the above

A. Phagocytosis is a process by which a cell engulfs a solid particle by forming an internal compartment known as a phagosome.
B. Pinocytosis (fluid endocytosis or bulk-phase pinocytosis) is a form of endocytosis in which extracellular fluid or liquid is engulfed and are brought into a cell by the budding of small vesicles on the surface.

C. Exocytosis is a bulk transport in which molecules are moved out of the cell by expelling them through an energy-dependent process.

In the given diagram the amoeba illustrates all the above processes.

So, the correct answer is 'All of the above'.
