Blebs from tips of SER fuse with Golgi apparatus cisternae at:
Correct answer: A. Cis face (forming face)
- A. Cis face (forming face)
- B. Inner face
- C. Trans face
- D. Distal face
Explanation
Vesicles from the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER) are referred to as 'blebs' in the context of their budding and transport. These vesicles merge with the Golgi apparatus at the cis face, also known as the forming face. This is the entry point where the contents are delivered for further processing and modification. The 'inner face' and 'distal face' are not standard terms related to the Golgi apparatus, and the trans face is the exit point, not involved in the initial fusion of vesicles from the SER.
