Cell model Flashcards
Physical isolation, regulation of exchange with the environment (permeability), sensitivity, structural support
Plasma membrane (func)
Tangle of fine filaments formed when cells are not dividing and nucleosides are loosely coiled
Chromatin
produce 95% of the ATP required by the cell
mitochondria
control of metabolism.
nucleus
storage & processing of genetic information
nucleus
control of protein synthesis
nucleus
site of rRNA synthesis and assembly of ribosomal subunits
nucleolus
synthesis of secretory products. intracellular storage & transport
ER
modification & packaging of newly synthesized proteins
rough ER
lipid, steroid, carbohydrate synthesis; calcium ion storage
smooth ER
storage, alteration, packaging of secretory products & lysosomal enzymes
golgi apparatus
intracellular removal of damaged organelles or pathogens
lysosome
catabolism of fats & other organic compounds
peroxisome
neutralization of toxic compounds generated in the process
peroxisome
essential for movement of chromsomes during cell division; organization of microtubules in cytoskeleton
centrosome (centrioles)
