The diameter of a typical eukaryotic cell is approximately ten times the diameter of a typical prokaryote. What is the ratio of the volume of typical eukaryotic:prokaryotic cells?

1000:1 As the diameter of a cell increases, other dimensions also change. For two cells of approximately equivalent shape but different diameters, surface area increases as the square of diameter, and volume increases as the cube of diameter. Thus, if a eukaryotic cell is ten times the diameter of a prokaryote, its surface area will be one hundred (102) times that of the prokaryote and its volume will be one thousand (103) times that of the prokaryote.

Which statement correctly describes an endomembrane function?

Products of the ER are usually modified during their transit from the cis to the trans region of the Golgi apparatus. The cis and trans regions of the Golgi apparatus act as receiving and shipping departments. As molecules move from the cis to the trans face of the Golgi apparatus, they are usually modified.

Which of the following groups is primarily involved in synthesizing molecules needed by the cell?

Ribosomes, rough endoplasmic reticulum, and smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Where is calcium stored?

Smooth ER In addition to storing calcium, the smooth ER also plays a role in detoxification and lipid synthesis.

What is the functional connection between the nucleolus, nuclear pores, and the nuclear membrane?

Subunits of ribosomes are assembled in the nucleolus and pass through the nuclear membrane via the nuclear pores.

Choose the best description of the cell cytoskeleton.

The cell cytoskeleton is similar to an animal skeleton in providing rigid internal support and structure to the cell. The cell cytoskeleton serves as permanent scaffolding to anchor cell components into position within the cell cytoplasm. 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. 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.

route of endomembrane system

The endomembrane system is critical for the synthesis, processing, and movement of proteins and lipids in the cell. The smooth ER functions mainly in lipid synthesis and processing. The rough ER is the site of secretory protein synthesis. These proteins are processed further in the Golgi apparatus, from where they are dispatched in vesicles to the plasma membrane. Lysosomes, whose enzymes and membranes are made and processed by the rough ER and Golgi apparatus, function in the hydrolysis of macromolecules, such as in phagocytosis and autophagy.

Your intestine is lined with individual cells. No fluids leak between these cells from the gut into your body. Why?

The intestinal cells are bound together by tight junctions
