A nephron consists of two tubules; one is open at one end while the other is closed at the other end. The closed-end tubule forms the cup-shaped glomerular capsule. Other parts of the nephron include the proximal convoluted tubule, the medullary loop, distal convoluted tubules, ...
The endoplasmic reticulum is defined as an organelle that is made up of a series ofphospholipidmembranes.In fact, the membranes that make up the endoplasmic reticulumcan account for half of a cell’s total membrane structure in animal cells! These membranes are calledcisternae, are shaped like t...
5. Golgi apparatusGolgi apparatus is also known as Golgi complex. It's a membrane- bound organelle, which is substantially composed of a series of smoothed, piled sacks called cisternae. 6. MitochondriaMitochondria is also called as power house of the cell as they produce energy-rich molecules ...

When molecules, such as hormones, are released from a secretory vesicle, the molecules are taken out of the cell by a process known as exocytosis. Exocytosis is an active transport process that helps remove particles from the secretory vesicle to be released outside of the cell wall. Some of...
