Proteins on the surface of vesicles determine where the vesicles go. Which cell organelle provides the instructions for these pr
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

D. Nucleus.

Explanation:

A cell can be defined as the structural, fundamental, biological and functional unit of life. Cells are found in all living organisms because they are the basic unit of life. A unicellular organism refers to a living organism that possess a single-cell while a multicellular organism has many (multiple) cells.

Some examples of cell organelles found in all living organisms such as trees, birds, and bacteria include; nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, golgi apparatus, mitochondria, lysosomes, ribosomes, chromosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, vesicles, etc.

Proteins on the surface of vesicles determine where the vesicles go.

The nucleus is the cell organelle which provides the instructions for these proteins. It controls all the activities taking place in the cell and the synthesis of proteins.

The process of phagocytosis involve all of the following except
evablogger [386]

Hello, I figured your question was missing its options so I went online to find them. Here they are:

The process of phagocytosis involves all of the following EXCEPT :

a. adhesion.

b. secretion of cytotoxins.

c. elimination.

d. vesicle fusion.

e. chemotaxis.

Answer:

The correct answer is: b) secretion of cytotoxins.

Explanation:

Phagocytosis is a mechanism performed by cells in which the plasma membrane engulfs a large particle. Phagocytosis is used by cells in the immune system to ingest pathogens like viruses and bacteria.

Phagocytosis consists of many steps:

  1. activation - the phagocytes that were resting are activated in the inflammatory response when a pathogen enters the body.
  2. chemotaxis  - this refers to the process in which the phagocyte moves to the pathogen by following the chemical factors released by these germs.
  3. adhesion - the phagocyte attaches to the pathogen.
  4. ingestion /vesicle fusion - the phagocyte sends pseudopods to engulf the pathogen, and places it in a phagosome, which is an endocytic vesicle. The phagosome and the phagocyte will fuse so the pathogen gets inside.
  5. elimination - the pathogen is destroyed in the phagocyte by the lysosomes present in it.

<u>The</u><u> secretion of cytotoxins</u><u> is not a part of the phagocytosis, and is a process exclusive to </u><u>T cells</u><u> (leukocytes that lack the ability to phagocyte).</u>
