Describe the Components and Importance of the Endomembrane System
Based on its function it is divided into two types--. The endomembrane system consists of the nuclear envelope rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum ER the Golgi apparatus as well as the cells plasma membrane and includes the vesicles that bud off these membranes for intracellular transport moving stuff around inside the cell exocytosis stuff leaving the cell and endocytosis stuff coming into the cell. Endomembrane System The RER modifies proteins and synthesizes phospholipids used in cell membranes. . The endomembrane system is a system of membranous components that work together to modify package and transport lipids and proteins. Endomembrane system is intercellular system that forms the framework of a cell and helps in formation packaging and shipping of proteins and lipids. Flow of material through the endomembrane system is both anterograde outward directed toward the cell surface and retrograde inward directed from the cell surface...
