When a membrane protein is radioactively labeled during synthesis and followed through the various organelles in the secretory pathway, all the radioactivity is concentrated in the cis-Golgi apparatus six hours after the protein synthesis. This suggests that the protein a. is misfolded and being degraded in the cis-Golgi.
b. contains a KDEL sequence near its C-terminus.
c. has a membrane-spanning domain length equals the
d. thickness of the cis-Golgi membrane.
e. was imported directly into the cis-Golgi posttranslationally.
f. has a mannose-6-phosphate tag.

C. has a membrane-spanning domain length equals the thickness of the cis-Golgi membrane.

Explanation:

Secretory pathway is the pathway that transport proteins to the cell surface membrane. For this, the membrane proteins are labeled radioactively and move through the various organelles to carry the proteins to the surface membrane.

After six hours, all the radioactivity is concentrated in the cis-Golgi apparatus this means that The protein carries membrane-spanning domain which widens or make the cis-Golgi menbrane thick.

Hence, the correct answer is "C".

fertilization, pictured in figure 24.23a is the process in which gametes (an egg and sperm) fuse to form a zygote. the egg and sperm each contain one set of chromosomes. to ensure that the offspring has only one complete diploid set of chromosomes, only one sperm must fuse with one egg. in mammals, the egg is protected by a layer of extracellular matrix consisting mainly of glycoproteins called the zona pellucida. when a sperm binds to the zona pellucida, a series of biochemical events, called the acrosomal reactions, take place. in placental mammals, the acrosome contains digestive enzymes that initiate the degradation of the glycoprotein matrix protecting the egg and allowing the sperm plasma membrane to fuse with the egg plasma membrane, as illustrated in figure 24.23b. the fusion of these two membranes creates an opening through which the sperm nucleus is transferred into the ovum. the nuclear membranes of the egg and sperm break down and the two haploid genomes condense to form a diploid genome.

The proton has a positive charge while the neutron has no charge they both make up the nucleus of the atom while the elections have a negative charge and surround the nucleus of the atom. the protons and electrons are used to calculate the atom's mass whereas the neutrons don't affect the mass

Salmonella typhimurium is a food-borne bacterial pathogen that can cause severe gastrointestinal disease. salmonella is often phagocytosed by macrophages that normally destroy bacterial pathogens, but this bacterium is somehow able to prevent the complete maturation of phagolysosomes. salmonella is able to tolerate the low ph of phagolysosomes, and in fact responds to the drop in ph by secreting toxins that interfere with other cellular responses. which of the following differences would you expect to contribute to the survival of a bacterium within an salmonella-containing phagosome, compared to a healthy phagolysosome? decreased activity of acid hydrolases increased activity of acid hydrolases decreased import of h+ ions increased import of h+ ions my guess is decreased activity of acid hydrolases but i'm not sure.
