Teamwork

Explain how several internal membrane-bound organelles and other structural features (e.g., ER, ribosomes) work together to provide a specific function for the cell (e.g., synthesis of protein for export) and contribute to efficiency (e.g., increasing surface area for reactions, localization of processes).
The endomembrane system consists of the movement of material between the membranous vesicles of a cell. [Nuclear envelope, smooth and rough ER, Golgi, lysosomes, vesicles, and vacuoles]Here, the rough ER and its ribosomes work together to synthesize proteins. The information to create these proteins comes from the nucleus via the nuclear envelope. The rough ER sends these proteins to the golgi, where they are packaged and sent to various locations within the cell to be digested [lysosome], stored [vacuoles], or function within the cell membrane.
