Questions: QUESTION 10/32 The plasma membrane is *NOT* part of the endomembrane system. True False

The answer is True: The plasma membrane is _NOT_ part of the endomembrane system.

Explanation:

• The endomembrane system is a group of membranes and organelles in eukaryotic cells that work together to modify, package, and transport lipids and proteins. It includes the nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and vesicles.
• The plasma membrane, while crucial for cell function, is not considered part of the endomembrane system. It serves as the boundary of the cell, controlling the movement of substances in and out of the cell, but it does not participate in the internal transport and processing functions that characterize the endomembrane system.
