see photo. &nbsp;endocytic membrane transport pathway from plasma membrane to lysosome.</p>

<p>

abt 500 nm in diam when mature.</p>

<p>

see LDL discussion: &nbsp;LDL taken into cell by binding with LDL receptor on surface.

the LDL dissociates fro receptor, which recycles to surface.</p>

<p>

the LDL itself remains in the endosome and is delivered to the lysosome, where it is dissociated cuz of sl acidic

enviro generated by proton pump &nbsp;V-ATPase.</p>
