-part of cytoskeleton

19
Q

microtubules

A

-part of cytoskeleton

20
Q

microvilli

A

projections that increase cell surface area

21
Q

peroxisomes

A
  • metabolic functions
  • produces hydrogen peroxide by product
  • then converts it to water
22
Q

mitochondrion

A

cellular respiration

  • generates most ATP
  • contains some genes
23
Q

lysosomes

A
  • digestive organelle

- macromolecules are hydrolyzed

24
Q

central vacuole

A

older plant cells

  • storage break down of waste
  • hydrolysis of macromolecules
  • enlargement of vacuole plant growth
25
chloroplasts
- photosynthesis - energy from sunlight to chemical energy stored in sugar molecules - contains some genes
26
plasmodesmata
channels through cell walls that connect the cytoplasms of adjacent cells
27
cell wall
-protects cell from mechanical damages | made of cellulose, protein, other polysaccharides
28
nuclei lamina
netlike array of protein filaments that maintain shape of nucleus by mechanically supporting ht nuclear envelope
29
nuclear matrix
frame work of fibers extending throughout the nuclear interior
30
chromosomes
carry genetic information | -each chromosome is made up of chromatin
31
free ribosomes
suspended in cytosol | -generally make proteins that function in the cytosol
32
bound ribosomes
attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or nuclear envelope | -generally make proteins that are going to be inserted into membranes
33
the endomembrane system- function
- the different membranes of an eukaryotic cell - synthesize proteins - transport - metabolism - movement of lipids - detoxification of poisons
34
vesicles
tiny membrane segments
35
endomembrane system parts
``` nuclear envelope endoplasmic reticulum -golgi apparatus - lysosomes -vacuoles -plasma membrane - ```
36
the smooth ER
-synthesize lipids, metabolize carbs, detoxify drugs/poisons
37
enzymes of the smooth ER: steroids and lipids
synthesize lipids, oils, phospholipids,steroids - steroids: esx hormones, adrenal glands hormones (the testes and ovaries have lots of smooth ER)
38
enzymes of the smooth ER: drugs
detoxify drugs by adding hydroxyl groups to make them more soluble and flush them out (liver cells)
39
smooth ER stores
calcium -when stimulated by nerve impulse, calcium ions rush back across the Er membrane into the cytosol and trigger muscle contractions
40
rough ER
also it makes membrane has ribosomes attached to it -as polypeptide chains grow from the ribosome, they enter the ER lumen from a pore where it is folded -most of the secretory proteins are "glycoproteins" -have carbs covalently bonded to them -secretory proteins leave the ER in transport vesicles from the transitional ER
41
transport vesicles
vesicles in transit from one part of the cell to another
