Cells 2.1-2.3 and 2.10-2.11 Flashcards
Turgor Pressure
Pressure from water against cell wall
Lysosomes
membrane, enclosed sacs that contain hydrolytic enzymes
Lysosomes are important for
- intracellular digestion
- the recycling of a cells organic materials
- programmed cell death (apoptis)
Common function of Mitochondria and chloroplasts
energy transducers
Mitochondria
-takes chemical (food) energy and synthesizes it into ATP energy
-contains DNA and ribosomes
Outer Membrane of Mitochondria (OMM)
Smooth
Inner Membrane of Mitochondria (IMM)
-High convoluted (folds)
-the folds increase surface area for more enzymes which allows for more ATP to be made
Krebs Cycle (citric acid cycle)
generation of electrons that are used to make NADH and FADH, in the mitochondira
Where do NADH and FADH drop there electrons?
In the Electron Transport Chain (In the IMM) where it will then synthesize ATP
Simmilarties between Prokaryotic cells and Eukaryotic cells
-DNA
-Ribosomes
-cytoplasms
-membrane
Simmilarties between Prokaryotic cells and Eukaryotic cells
Differences between Prokaryotic cells and Eukaryotic cells
Prokarotes:
- have nucleoid (where DNA is stored)
-compartment less
Eukaryotes:
-endomembrame system
-compartmentalization
Chloroplasts
-double outermembrane
-intermembrane space
Inner membrane of Chloroplasts
-thylakoids
-orgnaized into stacks called grana
-single stack is granum
multistacks are grana
Stroma
fluid between inner membrane and grana
