2. Cell Chemistry & Cell Components

Which of the following sequences represents the order in which a protein made in the rough endoplasmic reticulum might move through the endomembrane system?

Which cell would be best for studying lysosomes? a. muscle cell b. nerve cell c. bacterial cell d. phagocytic white blood cell

In which cell would you find the most lysosomes? a,. pancreatic cell that secretes digestive enzymes b. ovarian cell that produces estrogen (a steroid hormone) c. muscle cell in the thigh of a long-distance runner d. white blood cell that engulfs bacteria

When analyzing a sample of cells from a patient, you find the lysosomes are filled with undigested material. This observation makes you think that the lysosomes are not functioning properly. What are three different defects that could be responsible for malfunctioning lysosomes?
