“what is ph of acid?”
0-6.9
<7
Strongest Acid
lowest ph
Strongest Alkaline
highest ph
Weakest acid
highest ph
weakest alkaline
lowest ph
acid
any substance that if dissolves in water realease Hydrogen ion H+
alkaline/base
any substance that if dissolves in water realeases hydroxide OH-
Neutral
any substance if dissolved in water releases neither/same # of H+ and OH- ; 7
*“definition of a the cell?”
the basic structural and functional units of body
Cell main regions (3)
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Plasma Membrane
Nuclear Envelope
bilayer with pores which makes passage of substances into and out of the nucleus possible
*“Location of DNA?”
chromatin
Space between plasma membrane and nucleus
cytoplasm
control center of the cell and contains DNA
nucleus
border of the cell, separates center of the cell from the outside
plasma membrane
- backbone of the plasma membrane
phospholipid bilayer
glue to make phospholipid stick together
cholesterol
Main regions of plasma membrane? (4)
phospholipid bilayer
cholesterol
proteins
carbohydrates
Functions of the plasma membrane (3)
boundary of the cell
protects cell
controls transportation of chemicals in/out
channels for chemicals to go in/out
Proteins (receptors)
helps cells stick together
carbohydrates
semipermeable membrane some chemicals can go in and out of but not all?
plasma membrane
*which chemicals can go in and out of the plasma membrane? which can NOT easily go in/out?
Fat = easily
Large can NOT easily
space between the plasma membrane and nucleus
cytoplasma
is cytoplasm acid, neutral, or alkaline?
neutral ph=7
*jelly, 75% water and other substances that are dissolved in water
cytoplasma
main regions of Cytoplasma (3)
cytosol
inclussions
organelles
liquid part of cytoplasma
cytosol
Pantry of the cell?
inclussions
cell store or unwanted chemicals to use later
small organs inside cell ; which is the LARGEST organ inside?
Organelles
Nucleus
*function of the Mitochondria?
cells powerhouse
describe mitochondria
oval shape, two layers on the wall (enzymes), contains DNA
ATP
adenosine triphosphane
makes energy
proteins + rRna
ribosomes
*function of ribosomes
protein synthesis ; making protein
where are some ribosome freely located?
inside cytoplasma and RER
fluid filled canals inside the cell
endoplasmic reticulum
main regions of Endoplasmic Reticulum
smooth ER ; SER
rough; RER (ribosomes)
*Intracellular transportation of material
rough er ; RER
*Provides material to repair cell
smooth er ; SER
flat sacs inside the cell, located close to the plasma membrane and ER
golgi apparatus
*Functions of Golgi (3)
quality control
packaging proteins
EXTRACELLULAR transportation of packaged proteins
Double layered sacs containing digestive enzymes
Lysosomes
*functions of lysosomes (3)
destroy invaders
destroy unwanted/unusable organelles
apoptosis
Apoptosis
cell suicide
gives cells shape and *protein thread that supports cells
cytoskeleton
main regions of cytoskeleton (3)
microfilaments : smallest
intermediate filaments
microtubules : largest
two rod shaped structures inside the cells with right angle
centrioles
*in cell divison they help cell to make spindle fibers
centrioles
short hair on the cell surface to move material across the cell such as mucus
cilia
Long tail of the cells
Flagella
*function of flagella
movement of the cell ; sperm
folded plasma membrane, increase cell surface to increase absorption in the small intestine
microvilli
CONTROL OF TRANSPORTATION
Plasma membrane
INTRACELLULAR TRANSPORT
RER
EXTRACELLULAR TRANSPORT
golgi
no atp required, high to low
passive
atp low to high
active
endocytosis
too LARGE to enter
pinocytosis = liquid
phagocytosis = solid
exocytosis
too LARGE to leave
types of passive (4)
simple ; high to low
facilitated ; facilitated by PROTEIN CHANNELS
osmosis ; diffusion of water
filtration ; high to low w/o expenditure of energy
when a cell gets divided to two identical cellls (mother and two daughters)
mitosis
goal of mitosis
repair and replace
mitosis
replication ; doubling DNA
how much time is spent in mitosis?
5-10%
non diving cell cycle time?
interphase ; 90-95%
phases of mitosis in order (4)
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
first step of cell division
replication ; doubling dna
last step of cell division
cytokinesis ; doubling cytoplasma (two daughters get separated)
first phase of mitosis
prophase
nuclear envelope + other organelles disappear
second phase of mitosis
metaphase
chromosomes line up in middle ; spindle fibers
third phase of mitosis
anaphase
chromosomes get separated and move to 2 poles of cell
final phase of mitosis
telophase
nuclear envelope and organelles reappear
cleavage furrow
*function ; making and programming ribosomes
nucleolus
