Question
Chapter 4, Problem 4SQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The two different regions of the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) in which the lipids are synthesized and in which the proteins are synthesized.
Introduction:
The cells of the eukaryotic organisms are partitioned into the different sections. One of the systems that partition the cell is endomembrane system. This system includes the nuclear envelope, ER, Golgi apparatus, vacuole, and lysosomes.

Glycophorins are a type of membrane protein found on red blood cells. They allow red blood cells to circulate through the blood vessels without sticking to the walls of the blood vessels or to other cells. Describe how a glycophorin protein would be synthesized by the cell. Include
What parts of the cell are involved and what happens at each location.
The process of protein synthesis (i.e. transcription, translation, etc).
To determine: The pathway that is used by the cells to place carbohydrates on the plasma membrane protein.
A human pancreatic cell obtains O2—and necessary molecules such as glucose, amino acids, and cholesterol—from its environment, and it releases CO2 as a waste product. In response to hormonal signals, the cell secretes digestive enzymes. It also regulates its ion concentrations by exchange with its environment.
Based on the structure and function of cellular membranes, describe how such a cell accomplishes these interactions with its environment.

- When William H. was helping victims after a devastating earthquake in a region not prepared to swiftly set up adequate temporary shelter, he developed severe diarrhea. He was diagnosed as having cholera, a disease transmitted through unsanitary water supplies contaminated by fecal material from infected indiv iduals. The toxin produced by cholera bacteria causes Cl- channels in the lurninal membranes of the intestinal cells to stay open, thereby increasing the secretion of Cl- from the cells into the intestinal tract lumen. By what mechanisms would Na+ and water be secreted into the lumen in conjunction with Cl- secretion? How does this secretory response account for the severe diarrhea that is characteristic of cholera?arrow_forwardBiotin is found in foods as _______________biotin and ______________biotin.
