Chapter 6.5, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: The mitochondria and chloroplasts should not be classified in the endomembrane system.
Concept introduction: Endomembrane system is a combination of different membranes that are found suspended in the cytoplasm of a cell. Component of endomembrane system derived from the endoplasmic reticulum or remain connected with other components of the endomembrane. These components play an important role in distributing cell component into the structural and functional unit. In eukaryotes, there are different components of endomembrane system. These include the vesicles, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, nuclear membrane, endosomes, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and cell membranes.

What are biofertilizers and mention the significance
PCBs and River Otters: Otters in Washington State’s Green-Duwamish River have high levels of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in their livers. PCBs can bind to the estrogen receptors in animals and disrupt the endocrine system of these otters. The PCBs seem to increase the estrogen to androgen ratio, skewing the ratio toward too much estrogen.
How would increased estrogen affect the river otter population?
Based on your reading of the materials in this unit, what factors can affect fertility in humans?
Explain how each of the factors affecting human fertility that you described can disrupt the human endocrine system to affect reproduction.

Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different.
