Some ribosomes float freely in the cytosol, while others are bound to the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum. Most proteins made by free ribosomes function in the cytosol. Proteins made by bound ribosomes either function within the endomembrane system or pass through it and are secreted from the cell. Which of the following proteins are synthesized by bound ribosomes?
a) actin
b) lysosomal enzyme
c) insulin
d) ER protein
e) DNA polymerase
f) ribosomal protein
<h2>B.lysosomal enzyme</h2><h2>C. insulin
</h2><h2>d. ER protein
</h2>
Explanation:
Most proteins those that function in the cytosol (actin) or in the nucleus (DNA polymerase) are synthesized by free ribosomes.
Proteins that function within the endomembrane system, like in ER, Golgi complex etc (for example, lysosomal enzymes) or those that are destined for secretion from the cell (such as insulin) are synthesized by bound ribosomes. These proteins pass through endomembrane system.
Protein those destined for the endomembrane system, are synthesized by ribosomes, they have signal in the growing polypeptide chain that act as a signal sequence.
The oesophagus is the region of the alimentary canal where the food passes without the absorption of nutrients. In oesophagus, we find peristalticmovement which is basically rhythmic contraction and relaxation of the oesophagus in order to facilitate the easy passage for the food to pass from mouth to stomach.
The oesophagus is a muscular tube which measures about 8 inches long.
