A Sertoli cell (a kind of sustentacular cell) is a "nurse" cell of the testicles that is part of a seminiferous tubule and helps in the process of spermatogenesis; that is, the production of sperm.
It is activated by follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secreted by the adenohypophysis, and has FSH receptor on its membranes. It is specifically located in the convoluted seminiferous tubules (since this is the only place in the testes where the spermatozoa are produced). Development of Sertoli cells is directed by the testis-determining factor protein.
Answer:
chromosomes
Explanation:
Genomics refers to the scientific study of genes (DNA) found in living organisms such as humans and animals.
A genome can be defined as the complete set of hereditary instructions that is typically found in the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
The complex structures of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and protein found in the cell nucleus are generally referred to as chromosomes.
In sexual reproduction, the chromosomes from parents are found in the cell nucleus and are comprised of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), histone proteins, etc. Thus, they are used to store genetic informations in living organisms.
Basically, the human somatic cell is made up of 46 chromosomes which are sub-divided into 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes (X and Y). An autosome is one of the numbered chromosome that is typically not a sex chromosome.
On the other hand, sex chromosomes (X and Y) are responsible for determining the gender or sex of living organisms such as humans.
Answer:
Protein synthesis in rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and packaging in smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER)
Explanation:
Intracellular Protein Transport:
- After transcription in the nucleus, the mRNA is translocated from the nucleus to the ribosomes attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). The RER is the site of the biosynthesis of proteins.
- The process of translation of mRNA sequence into amino acid sequence takes place in the RER.
- The newly synthesized protein is then packaged into vesicles in the SER and transported to the Golgi complex.
- The Golgi complex is the cell's packaging department. It packages proteins into transport vesicles for intra and extracellular protein transport.
