Nanomedicine - Exam 2 UPDATED
ACTUAL Exam Questions and CORRECT
Answers
intracellular transport - CORRECT ANSWER - movement of vesicles and substances
within the cell
the complex network of pathways within cells transports and organizes- - CORRECT
ANSWER - macromolecules
vesicles
organelles
other intracellular cargo
process of intracellular cargo being transported is... - CORRECT ANSWER - crucial for
cellular function and survival.
Pathways- internal organization of cells relies on... - CORRECT ANSWER -
endomembrane systems:
endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
Golgi apparatus
vesicles
what do endomembrane systems provide? - CORRECT ANSWER - These provide distinct
pathways for the transport of proteins and other substances.
Vesicles - CORRECT ANSWER - Vesicles are small, membrane-enclosed sacs that
transport substances within cells. They can deliver their cargo to different internal sites or to the
plasma membrane for secretion
Motor proteins are essential for... - CORRECT ANSWER - intracellular transport
, motor protein use ________ to move along the filamentous or tubular tracks of the cytoskeleton.
- CORRECT ANSWER - ATP hydrolysis
motor proteins... - CORRECT ANSWER - carrying their cargoes of vesicles or other
molecular complexes.
Endocytosis - CORRECT ANSWER - the process by which cells absorb molecules from
outside by engulfing them with their cell membrane
Exocytosis - CORRECT ANSWER - the release of substances contained in vesicles from
the cell into the extracellular space
Intracellular transport is crucial for many cellular processes including... - CORRECT
ANSWER - neurotransmitter release in neurons
immune response
protein and lipid trafficking
cell signaling
maintenance of cell polarity
Defects or interruptions in intracellular transport can lead to... - CORRECT ANSWER -a
range of diseases such as:
neurodegenerative diseases
developmental disorders
immune diseases
cancer
Motor proteins are a class of... - CORRECT ANSWER - molecular motors that can move
along the surface of a suitable substrate
