Which of these is NOT a part of the endomembrane system?

• Nuclear membrane

• Endoplasmic reticulum

• Golgi apparatus

• Mitochondria

A cross section of part of a Golgi complex is shown. Part of the membrane of the Golgi complex pinches off and moves away. Which of the following is a function of this process?

• to release energy from ATP

• to deliver proteins to other locations in the cell

• to collect amino acids for use in protein synthesis

• to sent messages about cell requirements to the nucleus

Which of the following statements correctly matches a cell part with its function

• The cell membrane packages lipids for export
• The mitochondria perform photosynthesis
• The lysosome digests molecules
• The nucleus produces energy

Tay-Sachs disease is a human genetic abnormality that results in cells accumulating and becoming clogged with very large and complex lipids. Which cellular organelle must be involved in this condition?

• the endoplasmic reticulum

• the Golgi apparatus

• the lysosome

• membrane-bound ribosomes

Sometimes a protein is made that will be released out of the cell. Which of these is the correct order of steps for this to happen?

• Made in rough ER, shipped to Golgi, vesicle travels to membrane and fuses with it

• Made in smooth ER, shipped to Golgi, vesicle travels to membrane and fuses with it

• Piece of membrane pinches off so that substance enters the cell wrapped in vesicle

Which of the following does a plant cell ONLY have?

• Vacuole

• Chloroplast

• Centrosome

• Nucleus
