Which of the following transport moves molecules from the plasma membrane to the Golgi?
A
Cisternal transport
B
Vesicular transport
C
Retrograde transport
D
Anterograde transport
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the context: The problem is about the transport of molecules between cellular compartments, specifically from the plasma membrane to the Golgi apparatus.
Identify the types of transport: The options given are cisternal transport, vesicular transport, retrograde transport, and anterograde transport.
Define each transport type: Anterograde transport moves molecules from the ER to the Golgi and then to the plasma membrane. Retrograde transport moves molecules from the Golgi back to the ER or from the plasma membrane to the Golgi. Vesicular transport involves the movement of molecules in vesicles between compartments. Cisternal transport refers to the movement within the Golgi stacks.
Focus on the direction: Since the question asks for transport from the plasma membrane to the Golgi, consider which transport type involves this direction.
Conclude based on definitions: Retrograde transport is the process that moves molecules from the plasma membrane to the Golgi, as it involves the backward movement of vesicles from the cell surface to the Golgi apparatus.
