Q

proteins in cellular membrane

A

many types of proteins are embedded in the membranes phospholipid bilayer

- proteins perform most of the membranes specific functions
    - carrying out important Chem reactions
    - help cells communicate/recognize each other
    - move substance across membrane

Q

osmosis

A

passive transport of water across a selectively permeable membrane
(osmosis will allow water to move from the hypertonic solution on one side of a membrane to the hypertonic solution on the other side until the concentrations of water and solute are the same on both sides)

Q

how large molecules move across a membrane

A

large particle movement across a membrane depends I. being packaged in vesicles (small membrane sacs that specialize in moving products into, out of, and within a cell)

16
Q

how the functions of ribosome, ER, and Golgi Apparatus are related

A

1) ribosome produces protein
2) protein is packaged in vesicle
3) vesicle buds of ER
4) vesicle transports protein to GA

17
Q

vacuole

A

large membrane bound sacs in the cytoplasm

  • contractile vacuole: pumps out excess water that diffuses into the cell
  • central vacuole:stored chemicals such as salts and contributes to plant growth m (by absorbing water) and causing cells to expand
18
Q

lysosomes

A

membrane bound sacs that contain digestive enzymes that can break down such macromolecules as proteins, nucleus acids, and polysaccharides
several functions: destroy harmful bacteria, recycling centers for damages organelles and can engulf/digest other organelles

19
Q

path of cellular products through membranes

A

1) vesicles bud from one organelle
2) fuse with another
3) transferring membranes/products

20
Q

chloroplast

A

photosynthetic cells found in some cells of plants and algae

21
Q

mitochondria

A

site where cellular respiration occurs

22
Q

cytoskeleton

A

a network of fibers extending throughout the cytoplasm

flagella and cilia

23
Q

flagella

A

long and thing (whip like)
core of microtubules
waves with an S shape motion that propels the cell

24
Q

cilia

A

shorter and more numerous
bundle of microtubules
move in a back and fourth motion that moves the cell
