Difference between Beta cell and Exocytosis

Beta cell vs. Exocytosis

Beta cells (β cells) are a type of cell found in the pancreatic islets of the pancreas. Exocytosis is a form of active transport in which a cell transports molecules (e.g., neurotransmitters and proteins) out of the cell (exo- + cytosis) by expelling them through an energy-dependent process.

Similarities between Beta cell and Exocytosis

Beta cell and Exocytosis have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cell (biology), Hormone, Vesicle (biology and chemistry).

Cell (biology)

The cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room") is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known living organisms.

Hormone

A hormone (from the Greek participle “ὁρμῶ”, "to set in motion, urge on") is any member of a class of signaling molecules produced by glands in multicellular organisms that are transported by the circulatory system to target distant organs to regulate physiology and behaviour.
