Predict what would happen if transport between the Golgi apparatus and a growing hyphal tip in a fungus was interrupted.
A)transport by vesicles of enzymes would cease
B)uptake of water by osmosis would not occur
C)extension of the hyphal tip would be discontinued
D)transport by vesicles of cell-wall materials would be blocked
E)all of these are correct

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transport between the Golgi apparatus and a growing hyphal tip in a fungus is essential for the delivery of enzymes, cell-wall materials, and the uptake of water through osmosis to the growing tip of the hypha. If transport is interrupted, all of these processes will be affected, resulting in the cessation of enzyme transport by vesicles, the blockage of cell-wall material transport, the disruption of water uptake through osmosis, and the discontinuation of hyphal tip extension. Therefore, all of the given options are correct.
