Question

Which of the following processes and organelles account for the replacement of lipids and proteins lost from the plasma membrane? A)Endocytosis and Golgi B)Active transport and the rough ER C)Receptor-mediated endocytosis and smooth ER and Golgi D)Flip-flop of phospholipids from one side of the plasa membrane to the other and the Goldi E) Exocytosis and smooth ER and rough ER

Answer 1

The correct answer is E) Exocytosis and smooth ER and rough ER. Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Exocytosis is a process by which secretory vesicles containing proteins, lipids, and other molecules are released from the cell. The proteins and lipids from the secretory vesicles are used to replace membrane proteins and lipids that are lost from the plasma membrane. The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) are organelles that produce the proteins and lipids that are used in exocytosis.
