11
What is the Endomembrane system?
membranous organelles working together that manufacture, distribute, ship and or store cellular products (proteins and lipids)
12
What is the secretory pathway?
a series of steps a cell uses to move proteins out
13
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
an extension of the nuclear envelope
(extensive, two regions)
14
What is rough endoplasmic reticulum?
flattened sacs studded with ribosomes that produce polypeptides
15
What is the function of rough endoplasmic reticulum?
to modify polypeptides for functioning as membrane proteins
