No. The endomembrane system consists of the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus - i.e things that are formed within the cell. The mitochondria was originally formed from a captured bacterial cell - as it has it's own DNA and its own ribosomes (as well as very bacterial like proteins). It is a separate organelle on its own, although it will have connections with the endomembrane system it is not considered part of it.

Why is not the mitochondrian classified as a part of endomembrane system?

Its structure is not derived from the ER In contrast to organelles of the endomembrane system, these organelles have at least two membranes separating the innermost space from the cytosol. Their membrane proteins aren't made by the endoplasmic reticulum, but by ribosomes in the cytoplasm and in the organelle itself.

No, the endomembrane system lies between the nuclear envelope and the cell membrane; dis-including both. The Endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus are two members of the endomembrane system. Google endomembrane system to get the complete picture.


Is a food vacuole part of the endomembrane system?

The endomembrane system is extremely complex for being so miniscule. While there is no one element more important than any other, the vacuoles are an integral part of the system. These mini storage units are the keepers of both nutrients and waste from the entire cell.


What organelles are a part of the endomembrane system and explain the term?

The organelles that are a part of the endomembrane system include the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vesicles, and the nuclear envelope. The endomembrane system is a network of membranous organelles within a eukaryotic cell that work together to transport proteins, lipids, and other molecules throughout the cell and to the cell membrane. It plays a key role in protein synthesis, processing, and trafficking within the cell.


Discuss the similarity of animal and plant cells?

Animal cells have a cell membrane, mitochondria, ribosomes, plasma membrane, cytoskeleton, nucleus, nucleolus, and an endomembrane system, and so do plant cells.


Is the mitochondria covered by a membrane?

Yes, the mitochondria is surrounded by a double membrane. The outer membrane is smooth, and the inner membrane is folded to form structures called cristae. This double membrane helps protect the contents of the mitochondria and regulate the flow of molecules in and out.
