In summary, endocytosis is the import of molecules and particles into the cell by folding the cell membrane inward to form vesicles. There are three kinds of endocytosis. Phagocytosis is nonspecific cellular 'eating' of large substances.Pinocytosis is nonspecific cellular 'drinking' of liquids and dissolved substances.n addition, all the phospholipids and other vesicle membrane components also become part of the cell membrane. This is a great way to refresh the cell membrane with new parts. Exocytosis can also release useful products created by your cell into the extracellular space.
Hypochondriac comes ultimately from the Greek word hypokhondria, which literally means âunder the cartilage (of the breastbone).â In the late 16th century, when hypochondriac first entered the English language, it referred to the upper abdomen. The upper abdomen, it turns out, was thought to be the seat of melancholy at a time when the now-outdated medical theory of the four humors (blood, phlegm, yellow bile [choler], and black bile [melancholy]) was accepted as a basis for legitimate health practice.
Hypochromic anemia is a generic term for any type of anemia in which the red blood cells (erythrocytes) are paler than normal. (Hypo-refers to less, and chromic means color .) A normal red blood cell will have an area of pallor in the center of it; it is biconcave disk shaped. In hypochromic cells, this area of central pallor is increased.
