Phagocytosis, process by which certain living cells called phagocytes ingest or engulf other cells or particles. The phagocyte may be a free-living one-celled organism, such as an amoeba, or one of the body cells, such as a white blood cell.

Pinocytosis is the method by which a cell absorbs small particles outside the cell and brings them inside.

Osmosis is the passive diffusion mechanism used by cells to pass water molecules across the cell membrane. ... The main difference between endosmosis and exosmosis is that endosmosis is the movement of water into the cell whereas exosmosis is the movement of water out of the cell.
