How Is the Nuclear Membrane Related to the Endoplasmic Reticulum

question 39

Multiple Choice

How is the nuclear membrane related to the endoplasmic reticulum?

• A) The nucleolus is present in the nucleus, but communicates directly with the endoplasmic reticulum.
• B) The inner and outer bilayers of the nuclear envelope are separated by a space that is continuous with the space inside the endoplasmic reticulum, thus providing direct contact between the two structures.
• C) Ribosomes that exit the nucleus through the nuclear pore complex attach to ribosome receptor locations on the endoplasmic reticulum, thus providing a means of communication between the two structures.
• D) The nuclear lamina anchors the endoplasmic reticulum, providing structural support and communication through direct contact.
