Q

structure of golgi

A

stack of squished bubbles made of membrane (phospholipid bilayer)

21
Q

function of golgi

A

modifies projects from ER, package and send to final destinations, manufacture molecules (assembly of starch molecules, glycoprotein assembly)

22
Q

golgi bodies

A

membraneous layers, make up golgi, cut up larger proteins (smaller hormones), combine proteins w/ carbs to make molecules, finish creation of lysosomes

23
Q

glycoprotein assmebly

A

golgi edit proteins from ER and adds Carbs, then sends to cell membrane

24
Q

vesicles

A

coming and going from Golgi, holding new material, phospholipid walls

25
Q

lysosomes

A

cell digestion, enzyme sacks, cell waste into building material

26
Q

nucleus

A

stores cells DNA, tells other cells what to do

27
Q

chromatin

A

holds DNA, cell division into chromosomes

28
Q

nucleolus

A

makes rRNA, mRNA into ribosomes

29
Q

mitochondria

A

cell

30
Q

characteristics of all cells

A

-ribosomes in use
-surrounded by plasma membrane
-cytoplasm fills them
-contains chromosomes

31
Q

domain of prokaryotic cells

A

bacteria, archea

32
Q

prokaryotic cells

A

less complex, DNA is concentrated in region of the cytoplasm called nucleoid (no real nucleus), no organelles just specialized regions, small (.1-5 um)

33
Q

endomembrane system

A

specialized membranes, that make organelle

34
Q

what does the endomembrane system include

A

nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus, lisosomes, plasma membrane, various vacuoles and vescicles

35
Q

function of endomembrane system

A

to manage the organic (non-energy) materials in a cell ex. protein synthesis

36
Q

structure vacuoles

A

a membrane container, defined by whats in it, filled w/ various contents from any # of places: ER, golgi, cell membrane

37
Q

function vacuole

A

varies based on cell type and cell function:
-stores food from phagocytosis
-pump water out in paramecium
-stores things like proteins (seeds), starch (fruits), pigment (flowers)

37
Q

contractile vacuoles

A

remove water from paramecium

38
Q

phagocytosis

A

cells absorbing or eating new material

39
Q

enzymatic hydrolysis

A

vacuoles preform this in plants to break down things into monomers

40
Q

central vacuole

A

only in plants, holds sap or water to give structure to plant cells

41
Q

structure lysosomes

A

vesicle filled with hydrolytic enzymes- does hydrolysis

42
Q

function lysosomes

A

digestion- breaking down monomers of polymers inside of cells
-breakdown of old/unneeded organelles
-digestion of food vacuoles (single cell simple organelles)
-fights invaders/bacteria (white blood cells)

43
Q

cellular energetics

A

mitochondria, chloroplasts

44
Q

structure mitochondria

A

outer membrane, surrounding an inner membrane that is folded and embedded with proteins, folded membranes increases surface area for more chemical reactions

45
Q

function mitochondria

A

generates ATP using oxygen to extract energy from sugars through Cellular Respiration

46
Q

structure chloroplasts

A

lense shape outer membrane surrounds an inner membrane that is filled w/ stacks of disks and tubes

47
Q

function chloroplasts

A

photosynthesis

48
Q

photosynthesis

A

conversion of solar energy into chemical energy by absorbing sunlight to drive the production of sugars
