Cells and Organelles Flashcards
cell membrane?
separates interior of the cell from extracell enviro
rough er?
translation & folding of new proteins
- GLYCOSYLATION!
smooth er?
detoxification, lipid synthesis, hormone communication
golgi apparatus?
storing, modifying & exporting of proteins & vacuole synthesis
nucleus?
controls cell growth, DNA replication/translation
nucleolus?
synthesis of rRNA
lysosome?
hydrolytic enzyme synthesis & digestive enzyme synthesis
proteasome?
protein complexes that degrade proteins
peroxisomes?
detoxification & uses hydrogen peroxide
mitochondria?
produces ATP
ribosomes?
protein synthesis
phospholipid structure
glycerol backbone
1 phosphate group (hydrophilic)
2 fatty acid tails (hydrophobic)
what is cell mem made up of?
phospholipids, cholesterol and membrane proteins
Simple diffusion
flow of small, uncharged, nonpolar substances DOWN concentration gradient
NO ENERGY USED
Ex. osmosis
Facilitated transport
Have uni, symport and antiporters
Passion diffusion is an ex. of this
Passive diffusion
Type of facilitated transport
Substances go DOWN concen. gradient
NO ENERGY USED
USES CHANNEL PROTEIN
Ex. porins
Active transport
2 types: Primary and Secondary
Primary active transport
uses ATP hydrolysis to pump molecules AGAINST their concentration gradient
ex. Na/K pump
Secondary active transport
uses FREE energy released when other molecules flow down their concentration gradient to pump across
gradient established by primary active transport
