Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is c.pinocytosis – liquids secreted from the cell

Explanation:

Pinocytosis is a type of endocytosis in which substances are internalized into the cell from the celullar exterior. The components are not secreted from the cell but are uptaken into the cell. This internalization process is characterized by the formation of an invagination of the cell membrane where then is formed a vesicle surrounding the component to be uptaken.
