receptor meditated endocytosis

hey just a question for anyone who knows the answer :D because i am unsure myself

Q. Receptor meditated endocytosis & exocytosis - does this apply for all types of endo and exo processes or just TRANSCYTOSIS (the transport of a substance across a cell)

thank you

Transcytosis is the vesicular transport of macromolecules from one side of a cell to the other,..so each of these require a vesicle whether its across the membrane or within the cell.
