The fusion of an autophagic vacuole with a vacuole (yeast) or lysosome (e.g. mammals and insects). In the case of yeast, inner membrane-bounded structures (autophagic bodies) appear in the vacuole. The cellular process that joins two lipid bilayers to form a single membrane. The joining of 2 or more lipid bilayer membranes that surround the endoplasmic reticulum. The joining of 2 or more lipid bilayer membranes that surround the nucleus. The joining of two lipid bilayers to form a single organelle membrane. The membrane organization process that joins two lipid bilayers to form a single membrane. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a membrane. A membrane is a double layer of lipid molecules that encloses all cells, and, in eukaryotes, many organelles; may be a single or double lipid bilayer; also includes associated proteins.
