Chapter 1 : Cell Unit Of Life Flashcards
Vacuoles
Non cytoplasmic area bounded by tonoplast
tonoplast
Semipermeable membrane around vacoules this thing have higher concentration and facilities are transport of ions
What are the type of vacuoles
- Contractile vacuole
- Food vacuole
- Sap vacuole
- Gas vacuoles
Contractile vacoule
Food vacuole
In protists
Formed by engulfing food particles
Gas vacuoles
Also called as pseudo vacuoles membraneless vacuole found in prokaryotes to provide buoyancy
Func of vacuoles
Reservoir of sugar, Aster, amino acids, some water soluble pigments
Percent of area covered by vacuoles in mature plant cell
90%
What does vacuoler SAP do
Determine osmotic concentration of plant cell
Microbodies
Single membrane bound and involved in oxidation other than respiration
Where is lysosome formed
Formed by the packaging in Golgi apparatus
Which is known as the suicide bags of the cell
Lysosomes
What r lysosomes involved in
Involved in intercellular and extracellular scavenging
Structure of lysosome
Has vacuole bound by membrane reservoir of approximately 50 hydrolytic enzymes which are optimum functional at acidic PH
For example acid hydrolases like amylase nucleus Peptodasd lipase
Types of lysosomes
1primary
2. Secondary
3. Autophagic
4. Tertiary residual bodies
