what is the rough endoplasmic reticulum? has ribosomes on the surface, stores protein
what is the golgi apparatus? modifies, packages, and distributes molecules out of the cell
what is the vault? transport molecules to and from the nuclear pore
what are proteasomes? barrel shaped organelle that breaks down unwanted proteins in the cell
what are the vesicles from the golgi apparatus that digest cellular debris? lysosomes
when a cell engulfs solid debris like another cell, this is known as ___. phagocytosis

edema occurs when fluid goes from the ___ space to the ___ space. intravascular, interstitial
if intravenous (IV) hypertonic fluid is given to a patient, the blood cells will... shrink in size
when a nucleus wants to make a protein it replicates a chunk of dna through the process of ___ and makes a piece of ___. transcription, mrna
at the ribosome, this _rna template from the nucleus is made into proteins by the process called ___. amino acids attached to ___ floating around in cytoplasm are connected to this _rna strip one at a time to form the final polypeptide. translation, trna
