Chapter 3 Flashcards
3 basic parts of human cell
1.) membrane
2.) cytoplasm
3.) nucleus
blood plasma is inter or extra cellular
extracellular
in blood plasma
cerebrospinal fluid
surrounds cells in NS
extracellular matrix
acts as glue holds cells together
cholesterol function
to keep shape and stability
carbohydrates in membrane
signal molecules
on outside of cell
glycolipids
lipids with sugar groups
integral proteins
spam entire membrane
peripheral proteins
attached to integral
glycocalyx
sugars/carbs
on cell surface attached to glycolipids + glycoproteins
acts as signal molecules
cell junctions types
1.) tight
2.) desmosomes
3.) gap
crenation
h2o flows out of cell
lysing
h2o flows in
desmosomes
medium cell junction
2 cells anchor together
not as tight as tight junctions but not as much space as gap junctions
tight junctions
2 cells join at the junction
materials cannot get through
gap junction
allows for cell-cell communication
antiporters
transport 2 substances in opposite directions
1 substance into cell
1 substance out of cell
symporters
transports 2 substances in the same direction
primary active transport
atp directly from atp hydrolysis
energy from atp hydrolysis changes protein shape and allows for it to transport
secondary active transport
atp is used indirectly
energy from primary ion gradient
the downhill diffusion of one drives the uphill of another
vesicular transport
bulk transport
transports entire vesicles into or out of cells
endocytosis
bulk transport into cells
exocytosis
bulk transport out of cells
organelles
mini organs in a cell
endomembrane system
organelles that have their own membrane
organelles in the endomembrane system
mitochondria
nucleus
er
golgi
peroxisomes
lysosomes
non-membranous organelles
ribosomes
cytoskeleton
centrioles
mitochondria
produces most of cells energy (atp)
double membrane
takes glucose +oxygen to make atp
nucleus
stores dna
in the form of chromatin
main structures of nucleus
nuclear envelope
nucleolus
chromatin
where are ribosomes synthesized
nucleolus
how do ribosomes get out of the nucleus
nuclear pores
Endoplasmic Reticulum
smooth and rough
rough er
has ribosomes
site of protein synthesis
smooth er
synthesizes lipids
detox
stores calcium
ribosomes
site of protein synthesis
types of ribosomes
1.) free
in cytosol
2.) bound
on rough er
golgi
boxes things and ships them out
what does golgi pack things into
secretory vesicles
types secretory vesicles
1.) peroxisomes
2.) lysosomes
peroxisomes
break down toxins
white blood cells
lysosomes
break down bacteria
liver
cytoskeleton
cell structure
allows cells to get bigger/smaller as they move through body
parts of cytoskeleton
1.) microfilliments
2.) intermediete filaments
3.) microtubules
centrosomes
part of cytoskeleton
assemble microtubules
involved in dna division
(pulls chromatids apart during cell division)
organelles near nucleus
made of 2 centrioles
centrioles
assemble microtubules in a certain order
makeup centrosomes
cellular extensions
1.) cillia
2.) flagella
3.) microvilli
cilia
push things passed cell
across membrane in one direction
flagella
move entire cell
microvilli
extensions of membrane
gives more SA for absorption
cell cycle
1.) interphase
2.) mitotic phase
interphase
cell grows and carries out normal functions
mitotic phase
parent cell divides into 2 identical daughter cells
mitosis steps
1.) prophase
2.) metaphse
3.) anaphase
4.) telophase
prmitosis steps
1.) prophase
2.) metaphse
3.) anaphase
4.) telophase
prophase
- chromatin condenses into chromosomes
- nuclear envelope disappears
- centrioles form microtubules between them
- centromeres move from nucleus and head to opposite ends of cell to hold chromotids
metaphase
chromosomes meet in middle
anaphase
chromosomes break apart
chromatids go towards centrioles
telophase
nuclear envelope reappears
cytokinesis
cell splits into 2
mrna
rna copy of a piece of dna
goes out of nucleus —> ribosomes
trna
brings correct amino acid to build polypeptide
rrna
type of rna that makes up a ribosome
transcription
in nucleus
rna brings instructions for protein synthesis from nucleus to ribosomes
translation
in ribosomes
rna —> proteins
translation
in ribosomes
rna —> proteins
