Question

Why is endocytosis found in animal cells but not in plant cells ?

Class 9

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Endocytosis is only found in animal cells for two reasons:

1..plant cells can make Thier own food through the process of photosynthesis

Where animals have to search for Thier food.

2...plants do not have cell membrane which is flexible and helps in endocytosis.

Plant cells have a cell wall...

Hope it helps

Answer 2

Endocytosis generally occurs in animal cells and very rarely in plant cells as the cell membrane in plant cell is surrounded by a rigid cell wall. Cell wall causes hindrance in the invagination of plasma membrane which forms the transport vesicles for the transfer of substances in the cytoplasm of the cell. Nitrogen fixing bacteria enter the root cells in legumes through endocytosis.
