Ch. 6 Review Flashcards
Why do cells have membranes?
It’s a barrier to maintain internal chemistry of the cell
CELL WALL DOESN’T DO THIS
Membranes have…
Functionality
Membranes allow cells to ______ with each other because they have ______
Communicate, receptors
Do bacteria have internal compartments?
NO
Which organelles have 2 membranes?
Nuclear envelope
Mitochondria
Chloroplasts
Nuclear pores allow…
RNA to leave the nucleus, its where the two membranes come together
Where are proteins made in the cell?
Ribosomes
What two macromolecules compose a ribosome
Polypeptides and rRNA (nucleic acids)
A ribosome is a ______ complex
Macromolecule
What organelles are in the EMS
ER (rough and smooth), golgi, lysosomes, vacuoles, the cell membrane
Define the characteristics of the Rough ER
-Covered in ribosomes
-contains chaperones
-Site of protein synthesis
Chaperones can help?
Proteins fold
Proteins in the Rough ER can either…
Stay in the rough ER or leave in a transport vesiscle
Define the Smooth ER
-no ribsomes
-makes lipids (all kinds)
-detoxifies drugs
-stores glycogen
What cell would be rich in SER
Liver cells
The golgi contains a unique set of _____
Enzymes in its flattened sacs
Golgi receives vesicles from the _____
ER
Vesicles in the golgi are transmitted _____ the golgi
Through
Vesicles that move through the golgi are?
Chemically modified, this is the final stage of activating a protein
The golgi’s essential function is
modifying and activating proteins then preparing them for shipment elsewhere
Where do vesicles leaving the golgi go?
- go to the cell membrane so the cell membrane can GROW
(secretion) - goes to lysosomes
EMS is a way to ____
Export cell products outside the cell
Lysosomes contain…
Hydrolytic enzymes to do hydrolysis (break down molecules)
