cells Flashcards
rough endoplasmic reticulum
Ribosomes attach here and translation takes place. Proteins are packed into vesicles here. folds and processes proteins made on ribosomes
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
synthesises lipids, phospholipids and steroids
Golgi apparatus
vesicles join and fuse onto here. Proteins are further modified. it processes and packs proteins
different sides of Golgi
cis- side where vesicles join
trans- side where vesicles leave
cytosol
enzymes and biochemicals dissolved in water
lysosomes
vesicles containing a digestive enzyme bound by a single membrane
what’s the inner membrane of the mitochondria folded into
cristae
DNA, ways it is layed out
wrapped around histone (a protein)
before splitting the DNA is indistinct and is called chromatin
Nucleolus
Ribosomes are assembled here
Transport vesicles
help move materials, such as proteins and other molecules, from one part of a cell to another.
cytoskeleton
Network of interlinking protein filaments that maintain the shape of the cell, transport organelles and provides mechanical support for things such as division
three types of cytoskeleton
actin filaments, intermediate filaments and microtubules
nucleus
nuclear envelope-double membrane
pores-enable molecules to leave and enter
nucleolus- site of ribosome production
mitochondria
double membrane inner membrane folds to form projections called cristae with the matrix on the inside containing the enzymes for respiration
different s of ribosomes
80 s in cytoplasm and 70s in mitochondria and chloroplast
