the cytoplasm through pores in the nuclear envelope called nuclear pore complexes. Lysos

The lysosomal membrane acts as a protective shield between the powerful digestive enzy

mes within the lysosome and the cytoplasm, preventing their leakage into the cytoplasmic

ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui
s from the initial transcription to the release from the cell?
ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui
a. The enzyme is transcribed from DNA by RNA in the nucleus, proceeds to the ribosom
ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui

ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui ui

soluble molecules (molecules that dissolve in water) because the water-
