material passes on its way to lysosomes

membrane invagination: nucleus, golgi apparatus, ER, endosomes, lysosomes
protein sorting - Answer: the sorting of proteins from the cytosol to an organelle depending on their
amino acid sorting signal seqeunce

mitochondria, or chloroplasts; protein must unfold in order to go through this

compartment of endomembrane system; vesicles become loaded with a cargo of proteins from the
lumen of one compartment by pinching off from that membrane and discharge the proteins at another
compartment by fusing with the membrane
signal sequence - Answer: amino acid sequence, typically 15-60 amino acids long, that directs a protein
to a specific location in the cell; often removed once the protein is sorted
