Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The endoplasmic reticulum is the cell organelle that forms the interconnected network of the tube-like structures. Its membrane continues with the outer nuclear membrane. The surface of the endoplasmic reticulum remains smooth and is called as smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER). If the ribosomes are present on the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum, that will make the surface rough. That is called as rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER).

Which of the following explains why a cell's size is limited?  a The cell membrane increases too fast for the cytoplasm to keep up with its reactions.  b The cell membrane becomes rigid.  c The cell membrane cannot supply enough substances to support organelles in the center.  d The cell membrane is too large to allow for transport.
Cells that line the intestines move nutrients from the intestines through the cell and then to the blood stream. These cells have many folds along their plasma membrane called microvilli. What is the function of these folds? O A. increase the volume of the cell O B. increase the surface area of the cell O C. increase protein transport out of the cell D. increase the ATP production within the cell red MacBook Air 吕口 F3 D00 F4 F7 F2 % & 2 3 5 6 %244
Which of the following statements are correct about how the complex biological matrix of the cell may affect protein folding, stability and function (select all that appy)?   A. ATP tends to "bounce" along the surfaces of many proteins without forming a stable complex   B. Proteins make up approximately 30% of the total volume of the cytoplasm in a typical cell   C. Compettition between drug molecules and metabolites in the cytoplasm may cause unexpected drug side effects not seen with individual proteins in solution.   D. Large protein complexes move faster through the cytoplasm than small metabolites.   E. Complex intercations between proteins in the cell may significantly destabilize a protein compared to the isolated protein in water
