Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The particles takes up by the cell from extracellular side and allow their fusion with the plasma membrane. The process is called endocytosis. The large molecules that are polar in nature like hormones and proteins are absorbed by cell. The polar molecules are unable to cross plasma membrane that is hydrophobic in nature. Thus simple diffusion is not possible for polar molecules.

Thus, Some nutrients and other types of particles can be taken into a cell when the cell’s plasma membrane encloses the particles and pinches off is true.
