17
Q

Ribosomes are “Protein factories” in the ___

18
Q

Ribosomes are also found in

A

Prokaryotes Mitochondria Chloroplasts

19
Q

What kinds of cells would have lots of ribosomes?

A

cells that need a lot of protein

20
Q

“Free” Ribosomes

A

Remain free in the cytosol while making protein

21
Q

“Free” Ribosomes make Type __ proteins

22
Q

“Bound” Ribosomes

A

Attached to the outside of the Rough ER

23
Q

“Bound” Ribosomes make Type __ proteins

24
Q

What is the endomembrane system?

A

A system of directly or indirectly associating membrane

25
Endomembrane system Direct via physical continuity
nuclear envelope and ER
26
Endomembrane system Indirect via
transport vesicles
27
Each sac in the ER is called a
cistern
28
Cisternae form a new compartment in the cell called
Lumen
29
Cisternae and lumen are contiguous with the
nuclear envelope
30
Two types of Endoplasmic Reticulum
Rough ER and Smooth ER
31
Bound by Ribosomes
Rough ER
32
Not bound by ribosomes
Smooth ER
33
3 Functions of the Smooth ER
Lipid Synthesis Drug detoxification Ca2+ storage and release
34
3 Functions of the Rough ER
Site of synthesis of Type 2 proteins Glycoslyation of some of these proteins Membrane factory
35
Cis face of the Golgi
The cisternae closest to the ER
36
Transface of the Golgi
The cisternae farthest from the ER
37
Golgi Apparatus Function Products received from ER are \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
further modified
38
Products from ER are concentrated, packaged, and sorted
