A certain eukaryotic cell type specializes in synthesizing lipids. Which organelle would be
found in greater abundance in this cell type than in other cell types that don't synthesize
lipids?
Mitochondria
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
Lysosomes
organelles that attach monosaccharides to protiens:
If the location in which a protein functions is the endomembrane system then the protein is made on a ribosome
attached to the outside of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. As the protein is made it is forced through a pore so
that it ends up inside the RER.
For each enzyme listed or described below state the kind of ribosome on which it's made (cytosolic, RER). If it's
made on a RER ribosome, state the final destination of the protein in the endomembrane system.
Protein
Ribosome type
Location in endomembrane system
(if applicable)
ACE2 receptor (human protein the
SARS-CoV-2 spike protein latches
on)
A histone protein
A mature acid hydrolase that will
function as an intracellular lipase
Cortisol synthesizing enzyme (hint,
cortisol is a steroid lipid)
Tubulin

- Ammonia (NH3) is a weak base that under acidic conditions becomes protonated to the ammonium ion in the following reaction: NH3 + H+ → NH+4 NH3 freely permeates biological membranes, including those of lysosomes. The lysosome is a subcellular organelle with a pH of about 4.5–5.0; the pH of cytoplasm is about 7.0. What is the effect on the pH of the fluid content of lyso- somes when cells are exposed to ammonia? Note: Ammo- nium (NH4+) does not diffuse freely across membranes.arrow_forwardWhy do glycolipids exist almost exclusively on the exterior side, but not on the cytoplasmic side of the cell membrane? Flippase move the glycolipids to this side of the membrane. The inner layer of the membrane is not thick enough to accommodate carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are only added to lipids on the lumen side of the ER and Golgi membranes. Carbohydrates are removed from the cytoplasmic side by glycosylase enzymes.

Which of the following describes the most likely subcellular component and related process responsible for the development of Gaucher disease? A B с D Lysosomes contain insufficient amounts of enzymes necessary for the metabolism of lipids. The Golgi complex produces vesicles with highly permeable membranes that cannot ef- fectively regulate the movement of particles. Mitochondria are not producing a sufficient amount of ATP required for the digestion of lipids. The rough endoplasmic reticulum contains an unusually high number of ribosomes, re- sulting in an overproduction of digestive enzymes.arrow_forwardMatch the organelle with the correct functionarrow_forward
- Many diseases are characterized by fibrosis, which is excess scarring. This scarring is often caused by too much collagen accumulating in the extracellular matrix. Which of the following strategies is MOST likely to work for preventing fibrosis? O Altering the endomembrane system to increase collagen secretion. O Altering the endomembrane system to decrease detection of the internal start transfer sequence of collagen. O Altering the endomembrane system to increase collagen endocytosis. Altering the nuclear export of collagen via lamins, followed by kinesin-mediated exocytosis.arrow_forwardWhich of the following cellular organelles plays a role in digesting food particles? mitochondrion golgi aparatus nucleus lysosome rough endoplasmic reticulumarrow_forwardIndicate which of the following are true about ribosomes.
