question
Which statement correctly describes the nuclear envelope of a eukaryotic cell?
answer
The nuclear envelope is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum.
question
Which one of the following statements about the endomembrane system is correct?
answer
Proteins that will be secreted from the cell are likely to be found in closed spaces bounded by membranes of the endomembrane system.
question

question
Which statement correctly describes an endomembrane function?
answer
Products of the ER are usually modified during their transit from the cis to the trans region of the Golgi apparatus.
question
Identify the correct statement about differences between rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER).
answer
The outer surface of smooth ER lacks ribosomes, whereas the outer surface of rough ER has ribosomes.
question
Select the correct statement describing cellular structure or function.
answer
Plant and animal cells both carry out cellular respiration, producing ATP.
question
Choose the best description of the cell cytoskeleton.
answer
The cell cytoskeleton is a dynamic network of fibers that can be quickly dismantled and reassembled to change cell shape and the position of cell components.
