Vesicular transport from the Golgi apparatus may occur via 3 different pathways. Imagine yourself as a scientist specializing in membrane proteins. If your protein of interest needs to be present at the plasma membrane, which of the following pathways must this protein follow in order to be delivered to its correct destination? Pathways 1 and 2 Pathway 2: This protein must be packaged as a component of the vesicles' membrane that will later fuse with the plasma membrane None of the listed pathways Pathway 1: This protein must be packaged in the lumen content of secretory vesicles whose membrane will fuse with the plasma membrane to be secreted outside of the cell Pathway 3: This protein must be packaged in the lumen content of vesicles that will later fuse with lysosomes

Proteins are made in the endoplasmic reticulum and then go to the golgi body to be finished and packed, and then they are pinched off into a vesicle to travel to their location.

Which of the following pathways correctly describes protein synthesis and transport out of the cell? ER to Golgi to vesicles to plasma membrane nucleus to Golgi to ER to mitochondria mitochondria to vesicles to Golgi to ER Which of the following best describes the general structure of a cell membrane? a layer of protein coating a layer of phospholipids phospholipids coating two layers of protein proteins embedded in two layers of phospholipids proteins covalently bound to phospholipids smooth ER to nucleus to rough ER to Golgi In its activated state ("on"), a GTPase can be bound to which of the following molecules? actin GDP GAP GTP GEF
