What is the significance of the protein-lined pits? O Protein attracts other proteins needed for ATP synthesis within the cell. Protein-lined pits are able to transport one molecule at a time down the concentration gradient within the cell. The polarity of proteins allows other polar molecules to attach and be transported in the cell by transport channels. Receptors within the pits allow ligands to fuse and be transported into the cell by endocytosis.
In plants, the cell wall forms as a young plant cell secretes polysaccharides onto the outer surface of its plasma membrane. Being thin and pliable, this primary wall allows the cell to enlarge and change shape. At maturity, cells in some plant tissues deposit material onto the primary wall’s inner surface. Why doesn’t this secondary wall form on the outer surface of the primary wall?
Explain the fluid mosaic model of plasma membrane.

Which of the following statements about a protein in the lumen of the ER is FALSE? A protein in the lumen of the ER is synthesized by ribosomes on the ER membrane. Some of the proteins in the lumen of the ER can end up in the extracellular space. Some of the proteins in the lumen of the ER can end up in the lumen of an organelle in the endomembrane system. Some of the proteins in the lumen of the ER can end up in the plasma membrane.
Let's say there is a protein that needs to be made and then exported out of the cell by exocytosis. Put the order of events in the correct order. Transport by vesicle to the plasma membrane for exocytosis. Process new protein in the rough ER. Transcribe into mRNA in nucleus. Transport by vesicle from the rough ER to the golgi apparatus for further processing, modifying, and sorting. Translate mRNA into protein on a ribosome attached to the rough ER in the cytoplasm.
