Cell Structure Flashcards
Membranes are made from…
Phospholipid Bi-layers
Difference between a Prokaryote and a Eukaryote?
Prokaryote has NO nulceus
Where the genetic material is stored in the cell
Nucleus
Where ribosomes are produced in the cell
Nucleolus
Where the microtubles are produced
Centrosome
Site of protein synthesis
RER (Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum) / Ribosomes
Site of lipid/steriod production
SER (Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum)
Where ATP is produced / the site of aerobic respiration
Mitochondria
Where proteins are modified / transported
Golgi body
The ‘waste site’ of the cell which contains digestive enzymes
Lysosome
Size of prokaryotic ribosomes vs eukaryotic ribosomes
P: 20nm/60s E: 30nm/80s
Nucleus
