How is the Endoplasmic Reticulum like a factory line?

1 answer:

3 0

The endoplasmic Reticulum is like an assembly line: The workers on the assembly line do their work, as the products move through the assembly line. Similar to the workers are the ribosomes on the reticulum, as they also do their work in a line. In the reticulum, like in a factory line, the proteins are produced, and like in the case of the facotry line, they are later sent to the other place in the factory or cell.

What is the relationship between the Golgi apparatus and the plasma membrane?

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

Proteins that were sinthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum are able to leave this organelle inside vesicles that are formed through evagination of the reticulum membrane. These vesicles can merge with the golgi membrane, spreading its contents inside the golgi apparatus. This process can be repeated through all of Golgi's cisternaes, and when the last cisternae is reached, these vesicles can be directed towards the plasma membrane. Once the vesicles and the plasma membrane are merged, all the molecules that were contained inside the vesicle are exported from the cell into the extracellular space.

Which of the following best describes how a blood cell and skin cell have the exact same DNA sequence and yet look different and

den301095 [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks options, however, it will be answered BROADLY so the it can be understood enough to select the correct answer.

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Cells perform different functions and look differently because of the process of CELL DIFFERENTIATION. All cells arise from a single stem cell, which then gradually differentiates into different types of cells with different functions, as they divide.

At the molecular level, these different types of cells contain the same DNA sequence as rightly stated in the question. However, they look and perform differently because some of the genes are turned on while the others are turned off via the process of GENE EXPRESSION.

Therefore, a blood cell and skin cell possess exactly the same DNA sequence but look different and perform different functions because of CELL DIFFERENTIATION in which some genes on the DNA sequence are expressed and others are repressed. For example, in the blood cell; the genes coding for certain proteins found in blood are expressed while every other gene is silenced or inhibited. This allows those cells to perform only blood-related functions.
