Explanation:
The Basic Steps of Endocytosis
The plasma membrane folds inward (invaginates) forming a cavity that fills with extracellular fluid, dissolved molecules, food particles, foreign matter, pathogens, or other substances.
The plasma membrane folds back on itself until the ends of the in-folded membrane meet. This traps the fluid inside the vesicle. In some cells, long channels also form extending from the membrane deep into the cytoplasm.
The vesicle is pinched off from the membrane as the ends of the in-folded membrane fuse together. The internalized vesicle is then processed by the cell.

Since the species isn't mentioned, I will assume human.
Definitions
Colostrum: This is the fluid expressed by the breasts just prior to and for a few days after giving birth. It contains a much higher concentration of nutrients in an easier to digest form than regular breast milk. This type of breast milk will be produced for 2 to 4 days after giving birth.
Transitional Milk: This is a thick creamy milk that contains more fat, lactose, vitamins and calories than colostrum. It starts within 4 days of giving birth and lasts approximately 2 weeks.
Mature Milk: This is a thinner milk that's about 90% water and 10% nutrients. It starts about 2 weeks after giving birth.
So the answer is about 2 weeks.</span>
<span><span>Radio waves: If our eyes could see radio waves, we could (in theory) watch TV programs just by staring at the sky! Well not really, but it's a nice idea. Typical size: 30cm–500m. Radio waves cover a huge band of frequencies, and their wavelengths vary from tens of centimeters for high-frequency waves to hundreds of meters (the length of an athletics track) for lower-frequency ones. That's simply because any electromagnetic wave longer than a microwave is called a radio wave.</span><span>Microwaves: Obviously used for cooking in microwave ovens, but also for transmitting information in radar equipment. Microwaves are like short-wavelength radio waves. Typical size: 15cm (the length of a pencil).</span><span>Infrared: Just beyond the reddest light we can see, with a slightly shorter frequency, there's a kind of invisible "hot light" called infrared. Although we can't see it, we can feel it warming our skin when it hits our face—it's what we think of as radiated heat. If, like rattlesnakes, we could see infrared radiation, it would be a bit like having night-vision lenses built into our heads. Typical size: 0.01mm (the length of a cell).</span><span>Visible light: The light we can actually see is just a tiny slice in the middle of the spectrum.</span><span>Ultraviolet: This is a kind of blue-ish light just beyond the highest-frequency violet light our eyes can detect. The Sun transmits powerful ultraviolet radiation that we can't see: that's why you can get sunburned even when you're swimming in the sea or on cloudy days—and why sunscreen is so important. Typical size: 500 nanometers (the width of a typical bacteria).</span><span>X rays: A very useful type of high-energy wave widely used in medicine and security. Find out more in our main article on X rays. Typical size: 0.1 nanometers (the width of an atom).</span><span>Gamma rays: These are the most energetic and dangerous form of electromagnetic waves. Gamma rays are a type of harmful radiation. Typical size: 0.000001 nanometers (the width of an atomic nucleus).</span></span>
Not a characteristic of living things is organisms only need water.
Answer:
Functions of the bones in the human body:
Support, protection, movement, mineral homeostasis
Explanation:
- Support: the bones provide a rigid support frame for muscles and soft tissues.
- Protection: the bones form several cavities that protect the internal organs from possible trauma. For example, the skull protects the brain against blows, and the rib cage, formed by ribs and sternum protects the lungs and heart.
- Movement: thanks to the muscles that are inserted into the bones through the tendons and their synchronized contraction, movement occurs.
- Mineral homeostasis: the bone tissue stores a series of minerals, especially calcium and phosphorus, necessary for muscle contraction and many other functions. When necessary, the bone releases these minerals in the blood that distributes them to other parts of the body.
