A cell buds 200 vesicles a minute from its endoplasmic reticulum. How many does it produce in an hour?

  • A.120,000
  • B.3,600
  • C.12,000
  • D.1,200

Answer: C

Two hundred each minute over sixty minutes gives twelve thousand. The scale of this traffic is why membrane must be recycled continuously rather than made afresh each time. Retrieval by endocytosis balances the membrane added by every fusion.
