Endocytosis and exocytosis are the processes by which cells move materials into or out of the cell that are too large to directly pass through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Large molecules, microorganisms and waste products are some of the substances moved through the cell membrane via exocytosis and endocytosis.

Answer:

Similarities include: Both are involved in transporting big molecules across the membrane. ... formed from the cell membrane which then gets into the cytoplasm. Exocytosis increases the size of the cell membrane while endo does the opposite.
