  • This protein can also serve as a source of carbon for the production of carbohydrates when organism faces the period of prolonged fasting and thus help the organism to survive.
  • The protein also helps in the movement of protons into the mitochondrial matrix that ultimately activate the electron transport chain and releases more and more heat for body’s maintenance.

Paraphin [41]

Explanation:

Molecules of different types are produced in different compartments of a cell. These molecules, however, needs to be transported from one location to another. For this purpose, small spherical structures called VESICLES are used by the cell.

Vesicles are compartments in the cell that functions majorly as transport sacs. They help transport materials and molecules from one organnelle to another within a cell. For example, transport vesicles help in the transportation of matured proteins from the Golgi apparatus to respective locations in the cell.
