Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 15RQ
What happens to the membrane of a vesicle after exocytosis?
- It leaves the cell
- It is disassembled by the cell
- It fuses with and becomes part of the plasma membrane
- It is used again in another exocytosis event.

Some nutrients and other types of particles can be taken into a cell when the cell's
plasma membrane encloses the particles and pinches off, forming a free-floating
vesicle inside the cell. A lysosome containing digestive enzymes then fuses with the
vesicle. Which term best classifies the uptake of such particles by the cell?
Simple diffusion
OEndocytosis
O Exocytosis
Facilitated diffusion
Secretory vesicles containing insulin move to the plasma membrane at the cell
surface and release the protein to neighboring blood capillaries.
Which Cytoskeletal element is essential for this vesicle movement within a cell?
Lamins
Intermediate filaments
Microtubules
Microfilaments
Which of the following subcellular structures facilitates intracellular transport?
A lysosomes
B peroxisomes
vesicles
ribosomes
