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.

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.

What Endomembrane system contains organelles except?

The endomembrane system includes various organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vesicles, and the plasma membrane. However, it does not include mitochondria and chloroplasts, as these organelles are not part of the endomembrane system and have their own distinct membranes and functions. Additionally, the nucleus is often considered separate from the endomembrane system despite its membrane structure.

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.

The vacuoles.


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.


What part of the plant cell contains water and dissolved minerals?

The vacuole. In the plant cell, there is only one vacuole that is filled with fluid and helps to maintain the shape of the cell. In the animal cell, the vacuole helps with digestion by filling with food and waste material.
