Biology Flashcards
Organelles of Eukaryotic Cells
Nucleus Mitochondrion Lysosomes Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Golgi Apparatus Peroxisomes
Nucleus
Contains all genetic material necessary for replication of the cell
Mitochondrion
Location of many metabolic processes and ATP production
Lysosomes
Membrane bound structures containing hydrolytic enzymes capable of breaking down many different substrates
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
Interconnected membranous structure with ribosomes studding the outside
Site for synthesis of proteins destined for insertion into a membrane of secretion
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Interconnected membranous structure where lipid synthesis and detoxification occurs
Golgi Apparatus
Membrane bound sacs where posttranslational modification of proteins occurs
Peroxisomes
Organelle containing hydrogen peroxide
Site of beta oxidation of very long chain fatty acids
Cell Division
G1 S G2 M Mitosis Meiosis
G1
Cell increases its organelles and cytoplasm
S
DNA replication
G2
Same as G1
M
Cell divides in two
Mitosis
PMAT Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Teleophase
Meiosis
PMAT x2
