Proteins assembled on ribosomes (if targeted for export to cm or to specialized locations w/in cell, complete their assembly on RER protein in vesicle  Golgi apparatus (further modifies, proteins before sorting and packaging them in membrane bound vesicles  vesicle  final destination o What are the two major parts of the cell? Cytoplasm with organelles, and nucleus o How do contractive vacuoles help maintain water balance? Pump out excess water o What is the difference between rough and smooth ER? Rough has ribosomes, smooth does not o Why is the cell membrane sometimes referred to as a fluid mosaic? What part of the cell membrane acts like a fluid? And what makes it like a mosaic? It is made of many parts (like a mosaic) that can float around in the fluid phospholipid bilayer o How do the properties of lipids help explain the structure of the cell membrane? Hydrophilic lipid heads are attracted to water, hydrophobic fatty acid tails turn away from water. A bilayer forms when heads turn outward towards water inside and outside a cell o Why do you think it’s important that cell membranes are selectively permeable? Allows needed substances to enter and wastes to leave, while keeping molecules that are not needed out</p>
