Hello!!!!
Heterophagy. :
Digestion in a fused vacuole and lysosome of material taken into a cell by phagocytosis or pinocytosis.
Autophagy:
Autophagy is an intracellular degradation system that delivers cytoplasmic constituents to the lysosome. Despite its simplicity, recent progress has demonstrated that autophagy plays a wide variety of physiological and pathophysiological roles, which are sometimes complex.
