The answer is: mitochondrion.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER): The RER is part of the endomembrane system. It is involved in the synthesis of proteins that are either secreted from the cell, incorporated into the cell's plasma membrane, or sent to an organelle.

  2. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER): The SER is also part of the endomembrane system. It is involved in lipid synthesis, detoxification processes, and calcium ion storage.

  3. Mitochondrion: The mitochondrion is NOT part of the endomembrane system. It is primarily involved in energy production through the process of oxidative phosphorylation and has its own distinct set of membranes and functions.

  4. Golgi apparatus: The Golgi apparatus is part of the endomembrane system. It modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for secretion or for use within the cell.

Summary: The mitochondrion is the organelle that is not part of the endomembrane system, while the rough endoplasmic reticulum, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus are all components of this system.

If we find that there is a linear correlation between the concentration of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere and the global temperature, does that indicate that changes in the concentration of carbon dioxide cause changes in the global temperature? Choose the correct answer below. A. Yes. The presence of a linear correlation between two variables implies that one of the variables is the cause of the other variable. B. No. The presence of a linear correlation between two variables does not imply that one of the variables is the cause of the other variable.

Figure 9: Instrumentation amplifier. Consider the circuit in Figure 9, which represents an instrumentation amplifier (A1, A2, A3) with additional functionality (A4, A5). All operational amplifiers are assumed to be ideal. (a) [5 points] Derive the transfer function H1(s) = (V2-V1)/(Vint-Vin). Hint: Set up independent equations that involve Ig, the current through Rg and eliminate Ig. Use your knowledge about ideal operational amplifiers. (b) [5 points] Derive an expression for (V01)/(Vout) of the sub-circuit with A 5 and for (V02)/(Vout) of the sub-circuit with A4. Calculate the transfer function H2(s) = (V02-V01)/(Vout). (c) [4 points] Set up the circuit equations for operational amplifier A3: Find a relationship between VN and VP, then set up circuit equations for V1, Vol, V2, and Vo 2 to derive the transfer function H3(s) = (V02-V0)/(V2-V1).
