Moving material into and out of the cell. Botulinum toxin bindsto neurons and enters these cells inside a vesicle made from theplasma membrane. Once inside, the toxin blocks the release ofacetylcholine, which is housed in vesicles within the cytoplasm, byblocking calcium voltage gates. What process is likely to be usedto move botulinum toxin into neuron cells, and what process doesthis toxin block to prevent the release of acetylcholine?

Exocytosis, endocytosis

Pinocytosis, phagocytosis

Endocytosis, exocytosis

Phagocytosis, pinocytosis
