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.

. Briefly state how each of the following cell componentscan be recognized in electron micrographs: the nucleus,a mitochondrion, a lysosome, and a centriole. What is theprimary function of each?
Q. Membrane surface area and cell volume are two physical variables that are relevant in explaining the difference in size and complexity between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Which of the following statements about these variables is correct? The ratio of plasma membrane area to total cell volume increased in early eukaryotes which allowed for greater morphological complexity. The total membrane area dedicated to oxidative phosphorylation is greater in eukaryotes. Although physically smaller, prokaryotic cells have more total cell volume than a typical eukaryotic cell. In prokaryotic cells, the membrane location of ATP synthase is the same as that for glucose import.   A. 1,2 and 3 B. 1 and 3 C. 2 and 4 D. 4 only E. All of 1,2,3 and 4 are correct
What is the relationship between the components of the endomembrane system? This should be an original thought, not Google’s.
