CH 6 EUKARYOTIC CELLS Flashcards
Appendages (Eu)
Flagella ; Movement
Cillia: moves the ‘medium’
Sugar Coat
GLYCOCALYX
2 Types of Glycocalyx
- Capsule = hard/ cross linked
2. Slime layer = Loose / not cross linked
Cell Envelope coposition
- Cell wall
2. Cell Membrane
Cell wall function
Prevents bursting
Cell Membrane function
barrier/ controls transport
