CELL STRUCTURE Flashcards
UNICELLULAR;
NO TRUE NUCLEUS
PROKARTOTIC CELL
MULTICELLULAR;
TRUE NUCLEUS
EUKARYOTIC CELL
MADE OF HYDROPHILIC HEAD (PHOSPORUS; LIPIDS) AND HYDROPHOBIC TAIL (LIPID);
AN OUTER COVERING THAT SEPARATES THE INTERNAL PART OF THE CELL TO ITS ENVIRONMENT.
PLASMA MEMBRANE
A JELLY-LIKE FLUID WHERE IT HOLD ALL THE MATERIALS INSIDE THE CELL OR WHERE CELLULAR CONTENT OR STRUCTURES ARE FOUND.
CYTOPLASM
THE GENETIC MATERIAL OF THE CELL.
DNA OR DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID
A CELLULAR COMPONENT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF PROTEINS.
RIBOSOMES
IT IS MADE UP OF ORGANELLES WITH A MEMBRANE THAT PERFORM THE DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS.
CELL / TYPICAL CELL
WHAT IS INSIDE THE TYPICAL CELL?
ENDOMEMBRANE SYSTEM;
ENERGY RELATED ORGANELLES;
CYTOSKELETON
CONTROL CENTER OF THE CELL WHICH HOLDS THE GENETIC MATERIAL (DNA) OF THE CELL.
NUCLEUS
RIBOSOMES;
IT IS A CONTINUOUS MEMBRANE SYSTEM IN EUKARYOTIC CELLS THAT PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE BIOSYNTHESIS, PROCESSING, AND TRANSPORT OF PROTEINS.
ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
IT SYNTHESIZE LIPIDS, CARBOHYDRATES, AND STEROID HORMONES;
HELPS TO DETOXIFY MEDICATION AND POISONS;
ALSO KNOWN TO STORE CALCIUM.
SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
RESPONSIBLE FOR MODIFYING, PACKAGING AND TRANSPORTING PROTEINS AND LIPIDS.
GOLGI BODY
IN ANIMAL, IT SERVES AS THE FOOD STORAGE.
IN PLANTS, IT PLAYS AS A WATER STORAGE.
VACUOLE
DIGESTION OF MACROMOLECULES;
RECYCLING OF WORN-OUT ORGANELLES;
IT ENGULFS PATHOGENS AND DIGEST USING HYDROLYTIC ENZYMES.
LYSOSOME
KNOWN AS THE POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL THAT PRODUCE ATP (TRIPHOSPHATE) AS THE SOURCE OF ENERGY OF THE CELL.
MITOCHONDRIA
