Which statement describes best vesicle formation in a Golgi apparatus? - Correct Answer -
The convex cis face receives vesicles from the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER). New
vesicles leave the Golgi apparatus by budding off the concave trans face.

make protein products that are secreted (mucus, enzymes, hormones). Which cellular
organelles are abundant in these types of cells? - Correct Answer -Rough ER

Week 8
What is the process that results in the formation of the trilaminar embryonic disc? - Correct
Answer -Gastrulation
The notochord is made from __________. - Correct Answer -Epiblast cells that migrate
through the primitive node
Which embryonic layer is the neural crest formed from? - Correct Answer -Ectoderm
3
, During which week of development does the trilaminar embryonic disc fold to make a three-
dimensional embryo? - Correct Answer -Week 4
Which adult structure is made from the myotome portion of the somite? - Correct Answer -

What is the fate of the vesicle produced in the Golgi apparatus by the process labeled
Pathway C in the figure below? - Correct Answer -The vesicle is a lysosome containing
enzymes to be used to clean-up cellular debris.
Adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine are subunits of the DNA's double helix that are
called __________. - Correct Answer -Nucleotides
Which of the following below is a function of the plasma membrane? - Correct Answer -It
acts as a receptor to bind specific molecules arriving from outside the cell.
Organelles are moved inside the cytoplasm by being pulled along microtubules by the motor
proteins __________ and __________. - Correct Answer -dyneins; kinesins
The outer membrane of a nuclear envelope _________ - Correct Answer -Is a specialized part
of the rough ER
In which phase of mitosis do spindle fibers, moved by motor proteins, pull chromosomes in
the direction of opposite poles? - Correct Answer -Anaphase
