- Phagocytosis and Pinocytosis
- Hey not at all. You can call me Phagocytosis. It's a pleasure meeting you dear.
- Woahh. Hey ! I've never seen you around. Do you mind me asking your name? I'm Pinocytosis.
- So do you live around here?
- Yes, i live in the bloodstream but I normally migrate to a location depending where I'm needed.
- Well you can call me a fluid-a- holic , i just made that up haha. But my job is simple, I actively engulf external fluids along with small particles.
- So what do you do?Do you work or are you studying?
- What ? no way ! We basically have the same line of work however I specialize in engulfing relatively large material. Sometimes it's really challenging, because I have to use my own Active transport.
- Oh my, the feeling is mutual, I too make use of Active transport. phew ! talk about exerting energy.
- Hey don't you think that we should work together sometime? I'll ingest the large particles and you could ingest the surrounding fluid and smaller particles. What do you think?
- Yes sure miss Phagocytosis hahaha. But I think that we should get going now. I will definitely see you around !
- Phagocytosis is the process by which a cell engulfs large particles or whole cells, either as a defense mechanism or as a means to obtain food. Pinocytosis is a method of active transport across the cell membrane in which the cell takes in extracellular fluids
- The end.
