Protein Production Storyboard
Name ______________________________________ Per ___
Biology Standard 1E: Students will know the role of the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus in the secretion of proteins.
Objective: Using my knowledge of the ER and Golgi Apparatus, I can create a storyboard/comic strip to show the steps of Protein Production.
Instructions: Use 6 frames to tell the story of protein being created, modified, packaged, and secreted by the ER and Golgi apparatus. Every frame
must show the what is being describe below, have a caption that uses the key words, and have speech bubbles for the “characters.”
Frame 1: Show DNA in the nucleus of the cell. (Use the key words: DNA and nucleus)
Frame 2: Show DNA making RNA, and the RNA leaving the nucleus. (Use the key words: DNA, RNA, and nucleus)
Frame 3: Show the RNA travelling to the ER, where it is translated into a protein. (Use the key words: RNA, ER and protein)
Frame 4: Show the ER modifying the protein, packaging it in a transport vesicle, and sending it to the Golgi apparatus (Use the
key words: ER, protein, modify, package, transport vesicle, and Golgi apparatus)
Frame 5: Show the Golgi apparatus making last modifications to the protein, then sending it in a transport vesicle to the cell
membrane. (Use the key words: Golgi apparatus, modify, transport vesicle, and cell membrane)
Frame 6: Show transport vesicle reaching the cell membrane and releasing the protein to the outside of the cell. (Use the key
words: transport vesicle, cell membrane, and release)
