Question

If they had instead performed this assay on muscle cells, which have high energy demands and primarily consist of actin and myosin filaments, where would you expect the labeled proteins to go during the chase?
a- from the Golgi apparatus and the rough ER to the cytoplasm and the nucleus
b- from the rough ER to the Golgi apparatus
c- from the Golgi apparatus and the rough ER to the cytoplasm and the mitochondria
d- from the cytoplasm to the Golgi apparatus

Answer 1

Answer:

C) From the Golgi apparatus and the rough ER to the cytoplasm and the mitochondria.

Explanation:

The protiens synthesized by the cells move through the endomembrane system and are released from the trans face of the golgi apparatus in the transport vesicles that move through the cytoplasm and ultimately fuse with the plasma membrane resulting in the release of the protien to the outside of the cell.

Hence option C) From the Golgi apparatus and the rough ER to the cytoplasm and the mitochondria. is the right answer.
