What do all cells in your body have?
- Plasma Membrane
- Nucleus
- Cytoplasm
-
What is the structure of the plasma membrane?
contains two phospholipid bi-layers with integral and peripheral proteins
-
What is the function of the plasma membrane?
to provide a boundary around the cell; where chemical reactions occur
-
Which part of the cell is selectively permeable?
Plasma membrane
-
What does selectively permeable mean?
only allows certain things to go through the membrane
-
What is the structure of the nucleus?
surrounds the DNA through the protection of a nuclear envelope
-
What is the fuction of the nucleus?
Houses the DNA, is the genetic control center of the cells.
-
What is the structure of cytoplasm?
liquid/gel part of the cell (jelly-like substance)
-
What is the fuction of the cytoplasm?
Holds the organelles in place inside the cell
-
Organelles
small organs found within the cell
-
Structure of Ribosomes
- free in the cytoplasm
- attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum
-
-
Structure of the Endoplasmic Reticulum
a network of membranes connected to the nucleus
receive their directions directly from the nucleus
-
Fuction of the Rough ER
synthesizes proteins (enzymes, hormones, muscles) studded with ribosomes
-
synthesizes lipids (phospholipids, waxes) it lacks ribsomes on its surface.
Smooth Endopasmic Reticulum
-
Structure of peroxisome
sac-like organelle found in cytoplasm
-
contains enzymes that detoxify toxins like alcohol, formaidetlyde, and free radicals and changes them to hydrogen peroxide
Peroxisome
-
Ships items from the ER
golgi apparatus
-
appears to be a stack of flatten pancakes.
Golgi Apparatus
-
modify, package, and secreate substances from the cell.
Makes lysomes
Golgi Apparatus
-
larger than ribosomes an are found free in the cytoplasm
produced by the Golgi Apparatus
Lysosomes
-
acts as the 'janitor'
Lysosomes
-
Lysosomes
break down cell parts (recycle worn out organelles)
kill the cell (if lysosome is reptured)
-
powerhouse of the cell, the site of cellular respiration such as glusose and oxygen, converted into ATP (energy)
Mitochondria
-
Centrioles
tubes of proteins called microtubules
-
used in mitosis and meiosis in order to pull the chromosomes aparts
centrioles
-
Cytoskeleton
network of proteins called microtubules and microfilaments form rught under the plasma membrane
-
Forms a flexiable internal framework for the cell
Cytoskeleton
-
short hair like extension of the plasma membrane
cilia
-
moves in unison to clean the respiratory tract of debris or to move an egg from teh fallopian tube to the uterus
cilia
-
Flagella is found in what part of the human body?
Sperm
-
long tail-like whip found in the plasma membrane
flagella
