Document Summary
It is the continuous flow of membrane from the nucleus to the plasma membrane: consists of nuclear envelope, rough and smooth er, vesicles and vacuoles, Golgi apparatus: stacks of flattened vacuoles: they"re hollow and have 2 membranes, the have a cis face (receiving side) and a trans face (shipping side) with the trans face concaving towards the plasma membrane. Lysosomes: vesicle sized organelles and they contain about 40 different hydrolyzing enzymes, they digest macromolecules using the enzymes to hydrolyze them (break them down, typically considered as an animal-only organelle. Peroxisomes: like lysosomes, they digest molecules, but specifically those generating dangerous toxic by products and it has special enzymes for this, hydrolysis of long-chain fatty acids results in the production of h202. Plastids: plant only organelle, all plastids arise from the proplastid and develop into specialized structures chloroplast is an example.
