Which of the following statements about the nuclear envelope is false?

a) Nuclear pores are made up of a group of proteins that are collectively called the nuclear pore complex.
b) The nuclear envelope is continuous with the Golgi apparatus.
c) The nuclear envelope is composed of two lipid bilayers.
d) Molecules pass into and out of the nucleus through nuclear pores.

Respuesta :

Answer:

b) The nuclear envelope is continuous with the Golgi apparatus.

Explanation:

The nuclear envelope is a nuclear membrane composed of two lipid bilayers: inner and outer membrane and perinuclear space between them. Its outer membrane is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum. Nuclear pores that are part of this envelope allow the movement of molecules in and from the nucleus (e.g. mRNA formed during transcription should be transported into cytosol through the pores).
