Explanation:

Receptor-mediated endocytosis is a targeted version of endocytosis where receptor proteins in the plasma membrane ensure only specific, targeted substances are brought into the cell.

Further Explanation:

In bulk transport, molecules cross the plasma membrane in small vesicles that bud off from the membrane. Endocytosis is a type of active transport that moves particles, such as large molecules, parts of cells, and even whole cells, into a cell. There are different variations of endocytosis, but all share a common characteristic: the plasma membrane of the cell invaginates, forming a pocket around the target particle. The pocket pinches off, resulting in the particle being contained in a newly created intracellular vesicle formed from the plasma membrane.

Cells perform three main types of endocytosis.

  • Phagocytosis is the process by which cells ingest large particles, including other cells, by enclosing the particles in an extension of the cell membrane and budding off a new vesicle.
  • During pinocytosis, cells take in molecules such as water from the extracellular fluid. The membrane invaginates, pinching off into tiny vesicles.
  • Finally, receptor-mediated endocytosis is a targeted version of endocytosis where receptor proteins in the plasma membrane ensure only specific, targeted substances are brought into the cell.
