ANPH - Cells, Chemical Basis Of Life, Tissue CH 3-9 Flashcards
What do you call a typical cell?
Composite cell
What kind of organelle is the nucleus?
Membranous organelle
What does the word organelle mean?
Small organ
Where is the golgi apparatus geographically?
Beside the endoplasmic reticulum and cell membrane
How does communication occur in the cell?
Through the cytoskeleton
What makes up a phospholipid?
Glycerol backbone with phosphate attachment and 2 fatty acid tails. Tails are hydrophobic, and phosphate is hydrophilic
Hydrophobic vs hydrophilic
Hydrophobic - hates water
Hydrophilic - loves water
Cell membrane mainly made of?
Phospholipid bilayer - semi permeable
2 examples of non-membranous organelles?
Ribosomes and proteasome
Cell pumps and channels are made of ..?
Protiens
What’s on outside of cell?
IMP - integral membrane protiens
What increases cell membrane’s ability to withstand heat and overall strength?
Cholestral
What increases membrane permeability to water?
Aquaporins - only water can use
Which IMPs sense hormones?
Hormone receptors
What is the endoplasmic reticulum called in muscle cells?
What does is metabolize?
Sarcoplasmic reticulum
Calcium
What type of RNA brings info from nucleus to ribosomes?
Messenger RNA
When substances leave from the golgi apparatus what do they leave in?
Vesicle
How do vesicles move to cell membrane?
Nanobots move them across cytoskeleton
What is the smooth ER for?
Synthesizes special lipids or carbohydrates to attach to a protein coming g from Rough ER . Makes some non-active protiens into active ones
Describe ribosomes?
Non-membranous structure made of large subunits.
MRNA enter though one side and exits the other.
Replicative RNA that is part of the structure of ribosomes, put together amino- acids to fabricate proteins.
E its hole at bottom of the large subunit.
What Type of organelle is the golgi apparatus?
Membranous tube
What type of organelle is the mitochondria?
Common name for it?
Name of twisting inner membrane?
Membranous organelle
Cell “power plant”
Cristae of mitochondria
What type of organelle is a lysosomal?
Another name?
Function?
Membranous organelle
Cell “digestive system”
Breaks down complex molecules into simple ones. Broken down material go to ER
When a cell performs phagocytosis, what is the vesicle called?
Phagosome
