Q

Endoplasmic reticulum

A
  • helps process molecules made by the cell and transports them to their destinations
    • rough ER
      • covered in ribosomes
      • makes new protein molecules
    • smooth ER
      • no ribosomes
      • makes lipids

Q

mitochondrion

A
  • “powerhouse” of cell
    • makes ATP
  • the number of mitochondria in a cell will depend on how much energy that cell requires

Q

Anaerobic catabolism

A
  • 1 molecule of glucose can produce 2 molecules of ATP
    • releases H+ and decreases pH

Q

Golgi apparatus

A
  • transport vesicle come off the endoplasmic reticulum and fuse with the golgi apparatus
  • transported substances are then processed in the golgi to form lysosomes and other cytoplasmic components

Q

3 Phases of catabolism

A
  1. extracellular digestion of large macromolecules to simple subunits
  2. Intracellular breakdown of subunits to acetyl CoA accompanied by production of limited ATP and NADH
  3. Production of NADH yielding ATP via electron transport; waste products (H2O, CO2, NH3, and urea) are excreted
