When translating secretory or membrane proteins, ribosomes are directed to the ERmembrane byA) a specific characteristic of the
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

B) a signal-recognition particle that brings ribosomes to a receptor protein in the ER membrane.

Explanation:

Each synthesized protein has to be targeted to the specific location and transported to that location. There are two possible ways for that transport: post-translational transport or co-translational transport.

• Co-translational transport occurs during the process of translation, and proteins transported this way are proteins bound for organelles in the endomembrane system (such as the ER, Golgi apparatus, and lysosome), plasma membrane proteins or proteins for the exterior of the cell. They have an amino sequence called a signal peptide which sends them to ER first.

• Proteins that do not have a signal peptide stay in the cytosol so, their transport is after the translation (post-translational).

The answer is both in males and females; only in males. Males have one Y chromosome and one X chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes. In mammals, the Y chromosome controls a gene which is the SRY, which produces embryonic improvement as a male. The Y chromosomes of males and other mammals also contain other genes needed for normal sperm production.
