The theory of endosymbiosis which believes that nuclear membranes and organelles such as the mitochondrian have evolved from a semi"mutation" in which a prokaryotic cell was engulfed by a eukaryotic cell and instead of being digested it survived and has evolved into key features of the eukaryotic cell. Evidence for this is the fact that the mitochondrian have their own ribosomes ( of which are the prokaryotic variety) and their own DNA which allow them to make their own proteins that can be used in synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

What organelle is attached to the nuclear envelope?

I don't think there is cell organelle surrounding the nuclear membrane because the nuclear membrane has many openings for nuclear traffic so i don't think there is any thing around it.but if you think i am wrong i am sorry:)


The endoplasmic reticulum is an extension of what?

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is thought to be an extension of the nuclear membrane. This structure is seen to connect the nuclear membrane to the cell membrane. When viewed under high magnification, this organelle is seen to encompass the entire cytoplasmic space between the nucleus and cytoplasm.


What is the system of membranes and tubes connecting nuclear membrane and plasma membrane?

Endoplasmic Reticulum


Outer portion of nuclear membrane shown to be continuous with what structure?

The outer portion of the nuclear membrane is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), forming a network of membranes that are interconnected within the cell. This connection allows for the exchange of materials between the nucleus and the rest of the cell.


Rough Endoplasmic reticulum is connected to what membrane?

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is connected to the nuclear envelope membrane in eukaryotic cells. This connection allows for the transport of proteins synthesized on the ribosomes of the rough ER to other parts of the cell.


The outer portion of a nuclear membrane has been shown to be continuous with what?

endoplasmic reticulum


Which cell organelles surrounds the nuclear membrane?

the cytoplasm


What cell organelle synthesizes the nuclear membrane?

The rough endoplasmic reticulum synthesizes membranes.


What are some examples of an organelle?

For a animal cell: nucleus, the ribosomes, Golgi body, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, nuclear membrane, vacuoles, cytoplasm, cell membrane, chromosomes. For a plant cell: nucleus, vacuoles, nuclear membrane, cell wall, cell membrane, chloroplast, chromosome, Endoplasmic Reticulum, chloryphyll, cytoplasm, ribsomes, mitochondria.


Where is the nuclear envelope located in the cell?

Around the Nucleus of the Cell. It is a membrane.


What are some organelles you can find in a cell?

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) nucleus Golgi apparatus Mitichondrian Liposome cell membrane there are different parts in an animal cell and a plant cell, so I have to list them separately ANIMAL vacuole mitochondria endoplasmic reticulum (ER) nucleus ribosome lysosome nucleolus nuclear membrane cytoplasm cell membrane cell membrane PLANT cell membrane chloroplast chromosome mitochondria endoplasmic reticulum (ER) cell wall nuclear membrane nucleus nucleolus ribosomes cell membrane


What organelle is connected to the nuclear envelpoe?

The rough Endoplasmic Reticulum is a continuation from the nuclear membrane, which in turn is connected to the smooth ER.
