Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Regulated secretion refers to the release of molecules from cells in response to specific signals. Neurotransmitters and endocrine hormones are classic examples of regulated secretion, as their release is tightly controlled in response to specific stimuli. The release of pancreatic digestive enzymes is also an example of regulated secretion, as the enzymes are stored in secretory vesicles and released in response to specific signals such as the presence of food in the digestive tract. Formation of extracellular matrix and plasma membrane formation are not examples of regulated secretion.
