Cellular Biology Flashcards
Difference of prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Prokaryotes DNA is found on the nucleoid region NO nucleus Smaller in size no organelles
Eukaryotes DNA found in the nucleus has nucleus Bigger in size has membrane bound organelles
Similarities of prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Both have cell membrane
both have cytosol
both have ribosomes
both have chromosome
has all the DNA and genetic materials
site of cellular processes
command center of the cell
Nucleus
protein synthesis
Ribosome
where can you find free ribosome
Cytosol
bound ribosomes are found in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum
False - rER
lipid synthesis; metabolism of carbohydrates; detoxify drugs and poison
Smooth ER
Why is the smooth ER smooth
Because walang ribosomes sa sER
protein synthesis; repairs the plasma membrane by sending phospholipids and proteins thru vesicles
Rough ER
modify, stores and send proteins to its destination
Golgi Apparatus
Cis-face transports protein
False - receives protein
What delivers proteins?
Trans-face
digests macromolecules and other by products of cellular processes thru hydrolytic enzymes
Lysosome
Lysosome binds to autophagosomes for autophagy
True
site of cellular respiration; produces ATP by extracting from sugar, carbs, and other energy sources using oxygen
Mitochondria
increases surface area for harvesting of energy
Cristae
site of photosynthesis; where solar energy transform into chemical energy
Chloroplast
sunlight triggers the formation of sugar and carbohydrates
True
chloroplast has a single membrane
False - double membraned
digestion of fatty acids; detoxifies alcohol and other harmful subs by transferring hydrogens of substrates to oxygen; produces H2O2
Peroxisomes
peroxisomes is bounded by a single membrane
True
maintains the shape and stability of cell
Cytoskeleton
serves as the traffic way of vesicles and organelles and is found all thru out the cell
Cytoskeleton
protect the plant cell
Cell Wall
maintains the shape and prevents excessive water uptake in plants
Cell Wall
Cell wall is made up of?
Cellulose
channel that links cell to cell communication; penetrates the cell wall
Plasmodesmata
make spindle fibers
Centrioles
where is centrioles found?
Centrosome
site of storage and breakdown of waste materials by hydrolysis
Central Vacuole
Central vacuole is the most prominent organelles in plant cells
True
Similarities of Plant cell and animal cells
Both have: Mitochondria Golgi apparatus sER, rER Ribosomes Nucleus Cytoplasm
