Answer 1

Anatomy and Physiology

Question 2

CELLS

what components are cells and their organelles made up of.

Answer 2

atoms. Atoms then join to gether to form non-living structures called molecules. small molecules serve as building blocks for larger molecules. 4 major molecules are protein nucleic acids, carbs and lipids in the cell.

What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)?

Answer 4

• comes both smooth and rough
• Rough Er is coated with ribosomes
• functions for both include mechanical support,synthesis (especially proteins by rough), and transport of molecules.

Question 5
