Endosomosis | Endocytosis |
The movement of water molecules into the cell when placed in hypotonic solution is called as endosmosis. | Endocytosis is the cellular uptake of molecules and particulate matter via formation of new vesicles from the plasma membrane. |
It results in the swelling of the cell. | Endocytosis allows the entry of molecules inside the cell by vesicles. |
Exosmosis | Exocytosis |
The movement of water molecules out of the cell when placed in hypertonic solution is called as exosmosis. |
Exocytosis is the cellular secretion of molecules by the fusion of vesicles containing them with the plasma membrane |
It results in the shrinkage of the cell. |
It causes the removal of waste materials by the destruction of the vesicles. |
