List the functions of Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi Apparatus and Lysosomes
Answers
Explanation:
The rough ER, studded with millions of membrane bound ribosomes, is involved with the production, folding, quality control and despatch of some proteins. Smooth ER is largely associated with lipid (fat) manufacture and metabolism and steroid production hormone production. It also has a detoxification function.
Answer:
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Function:
It is responsible for the synthesis of essential lipids such as phospholipids and cholesterol
Golgi apparatus function:
1)They are involved in synthesis of cell wall,plasma membrane and lysosomes.
2)It produces vacuoles which contain cellular secretions eg:enzymes,protein,cellulose etc. 3)They act as an area for storage,processing and packaging of various cellular secretions
Lysosome functions:
1)They are called digestive bags. They destroy any foreign material which enter the cell such as bacteria and virus.
2)They remove worn out and poorly working cellular organelles by digesting them to make way for their new replacements.
3)They are called suicide bags of cell.
