Question

Insulin is taken up, via endocytosis, by the endothelial cells that line blood capillaries. Then, it's transported across the cell to the other side, where it is released. This transport is called __________.

Answer 1

Answer: Insulin is transported in the cell by TRANCYTOSIS transport.

Explanation:

Insulin is a hormone that is secreted by pancreatic islet that allow glucose from the blood to enter cell. It is transported by trancytosis after been taken up by endocytosis.

Trancytosis is a process that transport material from the cells and move it to the other side where it is released. In the case of insulin, after the insulin is taken up through endocytosis at the vascular lumen ,there is traffic of the hormone bearing vessicles and exocytosis of of the insulin vesicles present at the basal membrane which lead to insulin been released in the cell.
