The cellular secretion of biological molecules by the fusion of vesicles containing them with the plasma membrane.Group of answer choicesphagocytosisplasmolysispinocytosisautophagyfacilitated diffusionexocytosisreceptor-mediated endocytosisendocytosis
Solution
The process described is exocytosis. This is the process where cells transport molecules (such as proteins) out of the cell by the fusion of a vesicle with the plasma membrane. The vesicle contains the molecules to be secreted. This process is used to expel waste and to secrete
