Order the following statements to correctly describe the route of secreted protein as it is synthesized and secreted from a eukaryotic cell. _____ The protein folds and undergoes modification within the rough ER. _____ The protein travels within a membranous vesicle from the ER to the cis face of the Golgi apparatus. _____ Translation begins on a ribosome. _____ The protein travels toward the trans face of the Golgi, from which it is packaged into a secretory vesicle. _____ The secretory vesicle travels to and merges with the cell membrane, releasing its contents outside of the cell. _____ The ribosome attaches to the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the newly formed polypeptide is pushed into the lumen of the rough ER.
