D. Osmosis

Respuesta :

D, best explains the question.

An amoeba expels large particles by EXOCYTOSIS (Option C).

  • Exocytosis is the process by which large macromolecules are released from the cytoplasm to the cell exterior.

  • Exocytosis occurs via secretory regions of the cell membrane which are able to excrete waste products and other large macromolecules.

  • Conversely, endocytosis is the inverse process by which a cell takes macromolecules from its surrounding environment.

  • The types of active transport that amoebas use to transport macromolecules are endocytosis (in) and exocytosis (out).

In conclusion, an amoeba expels large particles by EXOCYTOSIS (Option C).
