structure is the
Golgi apparatus.
endoplasmic reticulum. mitochondrion.
centriole.

Which type of endocytosis ingests the most specific type of molecule?
receptor-mediated endocytosis phagocytosis
pinocytosis
fluid-phase endocytosis

receptor-mediated endocytosis

Which of the following statements about integral proteins in the
plasma membrane is false?
Some attach to the glycocalyx. They are more abundant
by volume than the membrane phospholipids.
They determine which molecules are transported through the membrane.
Most extend all the way through the membrane.

they are more abundant by volume than the membrane phospholipids.

This membranous organelle is the site of protein synthesis for
proteins that are secreted by the cell.
a. golgi apparatus
b. lysosome
c. rough ER
d. mitochondria

C

When a phagocytic white blood cell ingests a foreign bacterial cell,
the vesicle fuses with this organelle.

A

These organelles are often called the "demolition crew" of
the cell.

B

Materials that are to be exocytosed by cells are enclosed in vesicles
synthesized by the
mitochondrion.
nucleosome. Golgi apparatus.

Golgi apparatus.

The plasma membrane is composed of all of the following except
tubulin protein.
phospholipids.
cholesterol.
glycoproteins.

tubulin protein.

The plasma membrane is important for all the following reasons except
it separates the ECF from the ICF. it is an important
site for DNA transcription.
it acts as a site for cell-to-cell interaction and recognition.
it determines what substances enter and exit the cell.

it is an important site for DNA transcription
