The endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi bodies

[go to this section in the Guide]
Chapter Three: Cell Structures


Question 1
 The endoplasmic reticulum is best described as
   1.  a network of tunnels extending from the nucleus to the Golgi bodies
2.  an organelle which produces protein
3.  a vacuole which contains digestive enzymes
4.  a structure used for cell movement
 

Question 2
 The difference between rough endoplasmic reticulum and smooth endoplasmic reticulum is that rough endoplasmic reticulum
   1.  does not contain ribosomes
2.  contains ribosomes
3.  does not transport proteins
4.  transports proteins
 

Question 3
 The endoplasmic reticulum's two main functions are to
   1.  transport proteins and synthesize new cell membrane
2.  synthesize proteins and neutralize poisons
3.  digest food particles and store energy
4.  help move the cell and capture prey
 

Question 4
 The Golgi bodies are best described as
   1.  a network of tubules
2.  hundreds of thousands of tiny structures
3.  stacks of membranous pouches
4.  the cell's "brain"
 

Question 5
 A cell without Golgi bodies would have difficulty
   1.  producing proteins
2.  sending proteins to other organelles
3.  digesting food particles
4.  moving
 

Question 6
 Do Golgi bodies ever make changes to proteins they receive from the endoplasmic reticulum?
   1.  yes
2.  no
3.  Golgi bodies do not receive proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum
4.  scientists do not currently know
