Neon is a member of the noble gas family. Other elements in this family includes <span>helium, argon, krypton, xenon, </span>and <span>radon. </span>These gases are in Group 18 (VIIIA) of the periodic table. The periodic table is a chart that shows how chemical elements are related to each other. The noble gases are sometimes called the inert gases. This name comes from the fact that these elements do not react very readily. In fact, compounds exist for only three noble gases—krypton, radon, and xenon. Chemists have yet to prepare compounds of helium, neon, or argon.

Neon was discovered in 1898 by British chemists William Ramsay (1852-1916) and Morris Travers (1872-1961). It occurs naturally in the atmosphere, but only in very small amounts.

Most proteins destined to enter the endoplasmic reticulum _________. Group of answer choices are transported across the membrane
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Begin to cross the membrane while still being synthesized-C

Explanation:

The Endoplasmic Reticulum is a part of the endomembrane system of the cell which is mostly reponsible for the synthesis and modification of proteins, although synthesis of lipids in plant and animal are carried out here

For more synthesis of proteins, it

needs to be further transported into the Rough endoplasmic reticulum- the designated site for secretion after synthesis of proteins.

Also it has been found out that when this proteins enter the Endoplasmic Reticulum, they start to cross the membrane while still being synthesized.
