Correctly complete the following sentence
Signal Recognition Particles (SRP) enable ribosomes that are making proteins to dock with the endoplasmic
reticulum. A prokaryotic cell that doesn't make this SRP is likely to
Select one alternative:
be unable to produce proteins destined for the endomembrane system or secretion
be unable to secrete proteins
function as normal
start using ribosomes free in the cytosol to produce proteins destined for the endomembrane system.
