Question

1.A reticulated network of membranes with attached ribosomes is a good description of which of the following?

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

lysosomes

2.Which of the following is the next organelle that proteins synthesized by the rough endoplasmic reticulum are likely to encounter?

Golgi apparatus

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

lysosomes

3. If a protein is found in the interior of the endoplasmic reticulum, which statement is FALSE?

It will end up in the cytoplasm

It may be secreted to the outside of the cell

It could be targeted to a lysosome or vacuole

4. Which organelle is primarily involved with detoxification?

Golgi apparatus

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

5. A cell involved in the capture and degradation of bacteria (like white blood cells in our body) would probably have an abundance of which of the following organelles?

Golgi apparatus

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

lysosomes

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

lysosomes

Explanation / Answer

Answers:

1. Rough Endoplasmic reticulum - The RER (Rough endoplasmic reticulum) form the interconnected network and studded with ribosomes on the surface.

2. Golgi apparatus - it pakages proteins into membran-bound vesicles that synthesized by RER.

3. It may be secreted to the outside of the cell

4. Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum is involved in detoxification.

5. Lysosomes are the organelles that work like macromolecules of immune system.
