New cards
Components of the endomembrane system
Nuclear envelope
Endoplasmic reticulum
Golgi apparatus
Lysosomes
Vacuoles
Plasma membrane
23
New cards
Lysosomes
Spherical organelles containing a single layer membrane
Contain hydrolytic enzymes
Involved in enzymatic breakdown of macromolecules and organelles
24
New cards
Peroxisomes contain
oxidative enzymes which remove hydrogens from specific substrates that in turn produces H2O2
