Answer 1

\(\huge\color{green}{Endocytosis}\): It involves the uptake of substances by the cell
It involves formation of vesicles containing the substances (solid or liquid)

\(\huge\color{green}{Exocytosis}\): It involves the release of substance by the cell
In exocytosis, the vesicles containing the substances fuse with the plasma membrane
Example: Release of hormones out of the cell
