Answer;
-Endocytosis
Explanation;
-Endocytosis includes; phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor mediated: Endocytosis brings substances into the cell, plasma membrane surrounds the substances to be taken in, encloses them in a membrane-bound sac (vesicle) and brings them into the cell
-Phagocytosis: endocytosis of large solid particles (“cell eating”)
-Pinocytosis: endocytosis of extracellular fluid that contains dissolved solutes (“cell drinking”)
-Receptor-mediated: highly selective, ligands bind to specific receptor proteins on the plasma membrane and are then taken into the cell
-Exocytosis: the reverse of endocytosis: substances are removed from the cell; vesicles fuse with plasma membrane and release their contents into the extracellular fluid; important in nerve cells to release neurotransmitter and secretory cells to release cell products (ex. digestive enzymes, protein hormones).
The reason both of these are valid scientific hypotheses is because A) scientists with different educational backgrounds may put forth different hypotheses to explain the same data.
This approach in science is vital in making progress and has helped to explain many phenomena in the past. When scientists explain data using different approaches, they come to a more comprehensive conclusion.
The homeostatic control system component which transmits the
response is called the receptor.
To add, the receptor is <span>an organ or cell able to respond to light,
heat, or other external stimulus and transmit a signal to a sensory nerve.</span>
