Exocytosis and endocytosis are processes that occur through the formation of vesicles in the cell membrane that, depending on whether they enter or leave, allow the desired material to be dissolved in the cytoplasm or, on the contrary, in the environment.

What is exocytosis?

It is the expulsion, by cells, of particles that, due to their size, cannot pass through the cell membrane.

What is endocytosis?

It is the process by which cells incorporate within them molecules, large or small, which are covered by a vesicle that is detached towards the interior of the cell forming phagocytic vesicles.

Characteristics of exocytosis and endocytosis

  • Exocytosis is verified by the formation of a cytoplasmic outgrowth that ends up separating from the cell.

  • Several types of endocytosis mechanisms operate in biological systems, including phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor-mediated endocytosis.

Therefore, we can conclude that in exocytosis, a cell expels waste substances or secretion products (such as hormones) and in endocytosis, the materials are incorporated into the cell.
