The endomembrane system carries out critical functions in the cell
The endomembrane system is composed of the different membranes that are suspended in the cytoplasm within a eukaryotic cell.The endomembrane system includes the nuclear envelope, the golgi apparatus, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and some components of the plasma membrane.
The endomembrane system is responsible for a variety of important cellular processes that include protein synthesis and transport, lipid transport, metabolism, and poison detoxification.
Vesicles are small membrane segments that transfer polypeptides between and within the endomembrane system.
The membranes within the endomembrane system differ in basic structure and function despite cooperation to achieve overall cellular needs.
- vesicle
A membrane-bound compartment found in a cell.
- ribosome
Small organelles found in all cells that are involved in the production of proteins by translating messenger RNA.
- polypeptide
A long, continuous, and unbranched peptide. Proteins consist of one or more polypeptides arranged in a biologically functional way and are often bound to cofactors, or other proteins.

Which is not a function of the endomembrane system of the cell?
In your cell, this is where the endomembrane system comes in a cell image because one is studded with small ribosomes and one is not.
What organelle of the endomembrane system associated with the sorting of lipids and proteins for various cellular function are?
it
Is mitochondria part of the endomembrane system?
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.
Are endomembrane system found within prokaryotic cells?
No, because the endoplasmic reticulum is a membrane bound organelle and prokaryotes lack membrane bound organelles.
What is the location of endoplasmic reticulum?
The endoplasmic reticulum an organelle of eukaryotic cells, forming an extended endomembrane system continuous with the nuclear envelope.
Which is not a function of the endomembrane system of the cells?
In your cell, this is where the endomembrane system comes in a cell image because one is studded with small ribosomes and one is not.
What is the function of the endomembrane system in?

What is the function of the endomembrane system?

Can a cell membrane also be called a endomembrane system?
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.
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.
The difference in lipid and protein composition between the membranes of the endomembrane system is largely determined by?
the function of the Golgi apparatus in sorting membrane components
Is mitochondria part of the endomembrane system?
