cellular structures Flashcards
Rough ER
has ribosomes. Makes proteins
smooth ER
no ribosomes, makes lipids and detoxifies
flagellum
tail like- protein that helps with cell movement
cytoskeleton
network of fibers =- give cells shape and help with movement
Types of cytoskeleton, from thickest to thinnest
microtubules
intermediate filament
microfilament
Nucleus
contains DNA, directs cell activity, makes ribosomes
Plasma membrane
controls what enters and exits the cell- phospholipid bilayer
ribosomes
small structures that make proteins
golgi apparatus
modifies, packages, and ships proteins and lipids to their destinations
mitochondria
produce ATP through cellular respiration
chloroplast
convert sunlight into energy using photosynthesis
lysosomes
break down waste, damaged cell parts, and invading bacteria
-uses digestive enzymes
vesicles
small sacs that transport material around cells
Central Vacuole
storage and water content regulating compartment.
motor protein
walk vesicles along cytoskeleton fibers
what do plasmodesmata do?
they contribute to water transport in plant tissue
surface bound membrane protein
peripheral, extrinsic
surface bound monotopic
integral, intrinsic
transmembrane bi- and polytopic
integral, intrinsic
gap junctions
create channels between cells. these channels enable ions and small molecules to pass through the membrane via passive diffusion.
integrins
transmembrane receptor proteins that link the extracellular membrane to the cytoskeleton inside of the cell
How many functional membrane bound compartments does a chloroplast have and what are they?
3
- Inter membrane space, stroma, and thylakoid lumen
what is the inter membrane space of a chloroplast
where the inner and outer membrane are
what is the stroma of the chloroplast
fluid filled inside the inner membrane
