The document discusses the mechanisms of exocytosis and endocytosis, which are active transport processes in eukaryotic cells that move large materials in and out of the cell. Exocytosis involves forming vesicles that release substances into extracellular fluid, while endocytosis refers to engulfing substances from the exterior into the cell. It also describes the different types and mechanisms of both processes, highlighting their roles in cellular communication and homeostasis.
