Endocytosis.
C
Facilitated diffusion.
D
Simple diffusion.
Verified step by step guidance1
Observe the image: The sequence shows a particle outside the cell, then the cell membrane enveloping the particle, and finally the particle inside the cell.
Identify the process: The image depicts a process where the cell membrane surrounds and engulfs the particle, forming a vesicle. This is characteristic of endocytosis.
Understand endocytosis: Endocytosis is a form of active transport where cells internalize molecules by engulfing them, forming vesicles from the cell membrane.
Differentiate from other transport methods: Exocytosis involves expelling materials from the cell, facilitated diffusion and simple diffusion involve passive transport without vesicle formation.
Conclude the analysis: Based on the image and the description of the process, the means of particle transport shown is endocytosis.
