Imagine a cell wants to make a protein that will end up exported outside of the plasma membrane. (Perhaps it's a neurotransmitter, like those that are being released between your brain cells at this very moment?!) Indicate the proper order of events. [Hint: many of the structures involved are part of the endomembrane system! :)] DD Exocytosis. Protein synthesis occurs at the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The Golgi apparatus processes, sorts, and tags the protein for delivery to its final destination. The protein travels by vesicle from one organelle to another inside the cell. mRNA is transcribed in the nucleus, exits to the cytosol through, and binds to a ribosome.

Many of the cell’s hydrolytic enzymes are located in the lysosome, where the pH is ∼5. What would you expect to be the optimum pH for these enzymes, and why would this protect the rest of the cell from the destructive power of these enzymes upon the accidental rupture of a lysosome?
Describe how organelles of the endomembrane system work together to synthesize and deliver a protein to its proper, final destination? The following final destinations to use as an example (membrane of the lysosome, secreted outside of the cell) in your explanation. This answer should be 3 to 5 sentences long. No pliagiarism please
Vesicle transport occurs between the ER and the Golgi in bothdirections. Let’s suppose a researcher added a drug to cells thatinhibited vesicle transport from the Golgi to the ER but did not affectvesicle transport from the ER to the Golgi. If you observed cellsmicroscopically after the drug was added, what would you expect to seehappen over the course of 1 hour?a. The ER would get smaller, and the Golgi would get larger.b. The ER would get larger, and the Golgi would get smaller.c. The ER and Golgi would stay the same size.d. Both the ER and Golgi would get larger.e. Both the ER and Golgi would get smaller
Since prokaryotes don't have microtubules, how does intracellular movement occur? For an example, how do proteins move to their designaed area within a prokaryote? Also, since they do not have a golgi apparatus, how are proteins processed and distrubuted thorughout the cell? Is the DNA different in prokaryotes that give it different instructions than what you would see in eukaryotes? Please help me understand this a bit more. Thank you. I'm not sure why Bartlby is saying my question looks like a graded assignment question. I guess I sound too professional lol
A meshwork of lamin filaments providing structural support to the nucleus a. inner membrane b. outer membrane c. both a and b d. lamina e. nuclear pore complex 2.Of the following organelles associated with endomembrane system, which group is primarily involved in synthesizing molecules needed by the cell? a. lysosome, vacuole, ribosome b. ribosome, rough ER, smooth ER c. vacuole, rough ER, smooth Er d. rough ER, smooth ER, vesicle
I am confused as to why (d) or (e) are not correct. Is it not (d) because the inner surface of the vesicle becomes the extracellular component? And what about (e)? Is it because it's not between the organelles and the cytosol, but rather between the cytosol and the extracellular space?
Gap junctions between cells allow direct contact of the cytoplasm between neighboring cells. What kind of cells might you find these in and how do they facilitate the function of these cells?
In addition to providing support, the cytoskeleton immobilizes enzymes and moves organelles to suitable positions in the cytoplasm. What advantage do these circumstances have over allowing the cell contents to freely diffuse in the cytoplasm?
Which of the following processes results in the formation of food vesicle within the cell whose contents will subsequently be digested by enzymes in the lysosome a) receptor mediated endocytosis b) phagocytosis c) pinocytosis d) exocytosis
