FAQ
Answer and Explanation: Vesicles, which are small sacs, transport materials between organelles and different locations in the cell.
Definition. A vacuole is a membrane-bound cell organelle. In animal cells, vacuoles are generally small and help sequester waste products. In plant cells, vacuoles help maintain water balance.
Transport vesicles help move materials, such as proteins and other molecules, from one part of a cell to another. When a cell makes proteins, transporter vesicles help move these proteins to the Golgi apparatus for further sorting and refining.
During bulk transport, larger substances or large packages of small molecules are transported through the cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, by way of vesicles – think of vesicles as little membrane sacs that can fuse with the cell membrane. Cell membranes are comprised of a lipid bilayer.
For instance, a macrophage engulfs its pathogen dinner by extending membrane "arms" around it and enclosing it in a sphere of membrane called a food vacuole (where it is later digested). Macrophages provide a dramatic example of bulk transport, and the majority of cells in your body don't engulf whole microorganisms.
Vacuoles, which are large enclosing, mainly function as food storage but can play role in transport in the cell. For instance, some protists in which vacuoles named 'Contractile Vacuoles' can be used for water regulation, carrying water outside and inside of the cell.
Vacuolar transport mechanisms can be divided into three types (Fig. 9.1): transporter-independent trapping, vesicle-mediated transport, and transporter-mediated membrane transport. In the following sections, the distinct characteristics of these mechanisms are described in detail.
Bulk transport is a type of active transport that involves the intake of larger molecules and even other cells. Types of bulk transport are endocytosis (bringing substances into the cell) and exocytosis (removing substances from the cell).
Explanation: The NOT type of bulk transport is halitosis. Halitosis refers to bad breath and is not related to the transport of substances within cells. The other options listed are all examples of bulk transport mechanisms in cells.
