KROK 1 2018 – Question 162 · KROK (Medicine) · Histology, Cytology, and Embryology
Ionizing radiation or vitamin E deficiency affect the cell by increasing lysosome membrane permeability. What are the possible consequences of this pathology?
- A. Partial or complete cell destruction
- B. Intensive protein synthesis
- C. Restoration of cytoplasmic membrane
- D. Intensive energy production
- E. Formation of maturation spindle
Hint
Recall what lysosomes store and what would happen to the structures of the cell if that material leaked through a damaged membrane into the cytoplasm.
