Liver cells in culture were kept at 0°C and treated with trypsin to digest the receptors on the cell surface. The temperature was then raised to 37°C and radioactive LDL was added to the culture media. Several hours later, the labeled LDL was found to be inside the cells. This specific process of LDL uptake is A. active transport B. facilitated diffusion C. phagocytosis D. pinocytosis E. receptor-mediated endocytosis

When a human white blood cell “consumes” a red blood cell (erythrocyte), this process is called: B. receptor-mediated endocytosis C. pinocytosis D. “cell-drinking” E. exocytosis F.phagocytosis
The LDL receptor is internalized via endocytosis every ten minutes and recycled to the membrane. How does the cell recycle the receptor and not the ligand (in this case LDL)? A. The high pH (~10) of the early endosome causes dissociation of LDL from the receptor and the receptor is segregated into recycling endosomes. B. The low pH (~5) of the early endosome causes dissociation of LDL from the receptor and the receptor is segregated into recycling endosomes. O C. A targeting sequence on the ligand sorts it to the late endosome/lysosome. D. This is an error-prone process, the ligand often gets recycled accidentally.
When the slime mold receives its own autocrine signal of CAMP the response is the activation of transcription of transmembrane adhesion molecules. These adhesion molecules need to be transcribed, translated and shipped to the plasma membrane. This response is an example of O a endocytosis O b. exocytosis Oc. phagocytosis Od. endosomal recycling
