Why are endocytosis and exocytosis kinds of active transport?​

Biology

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]3 years ago

Explanation: During endocytosis (endo means inside) a cell will use its cell membrane to engulf an object which is outside of the cell. This process takes effort by the cell, so it needs to use energy (ATP!) The process which is the reverse of endocytosis is exocytosis (exo means outside - think exit).

Answer:

Endocytosis and exocytosis are active transport mechanisms in which large molecules enter and leave the cell inside vesicles. In endocytosis, a substance or particle from outside the cell is engulfed by the cell membrane. The membrane folds over the substance and it becomes completely enclosed by the membrane.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: lower atmospheric pressure

Explanation:

During the inspiration process the diaphragm, and external intercostal muscles. The contraction of the diaphragm causes the increase in the size of the thoracic cavity this causes the contraction of the external intercostal muscles. As a result of this the ribs and the sternum get elevated.  

This causes the lungs to expand, and increasing the volume of the air passage. In this response the air pressure inside the lungs reduces below the air outside the body. Thus this facilitates the movement of the gases from a region of high pressure to low pressure, this way the air rushes into the lungs.
