Question

State whether the following statements are true or false.
The ability of plasma membrane to engulf macromolecules is known as pinocytosis.

The correct option is B False

Pinocytosis is the ingestion of liquid into a cell by the budding of small vesicles from the cell membrane.

While the process in which cell engulfs macromolecules by fusing with the plasma membrane is called endocytosis.

So, the correct option is 'False'.
