Question 1

What are the main organelles involved in synthesising proteins?

Answer 1

RER, golgi apparatus, vesicles, ribosomes, cytoplasm, plasma membrane, and the nucleus

Question 2

Describe part 1 of protein production:

Answer 2

1. Proteins synthesised by ribosomes in RER. Then passed into cisternae + packaged into transport vesicles

Question 3

Describe part 2 of protein production:

Answer 3

2. Proteins transported to golgi apparatus where they move from layer to layer + protein is modified. Then moved to cell surface membrane
