1. 2. 3. |
1. macrophages
2. neutrophils 3. dendritic cells |
|
briefly describe phagocytosis:
|
plasma membrane evaginates (pseudopod formation) which involves reorganization of actin and myosin cytoskeletal components
|
|

|
Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis
|
|
... involves invagination of plasma membrane and pinching off to form vesicles
|
Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis
|
|
there are 2 main types of Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis:
1. 2. |
