Phagocytosis is the form of endocytosis in which whole cells such as bacteria are brought in. Exocytosis refers to the process by which cells release substances out of the cell by the fusion of a vesicle with the plasma membrane. Pinocytosis is a form of endocytosis in which extracellular fluid and solutes are brought in. Receptor-mediated endocytosis is a more specific form of endocytosis in which a ligand binds to a receptor on the cell surface, triggering the formation of a vesicle containing the ligand-receptor complex.
