,What is the sequence of steps in the development of a digestive
enzyme by the pancreas cells from the initial transcription to the
release from the cells?
a)
The enzyme is transcribed from DNA by ribonucleic acid (RNA) in the nucleus, proceeds to the ribosomes fo
synthesis, and is transported in secretory vesicles to the cell membrane.
Question 1 options:
b) The enzyme is transcribed from RNA by DNA in the nucleus, proceeds to the lysosomes for synthesis, and is
transported in an encapsulated membrane to the cell membrane.
c) The enzyme is transcribed by the mitochondria in the nucleus, proceeds to the ribosomes for synthesis, and is
transported in a cytoskeleton to the cell membrane.
d. The enzyme is transcribed from DNA by RNA in the nucleus, proceeds to the Golgi complex for synthesis,
and is transported in the cytosol to the cell membrane.
