chapter 3 Flashcards
cytoplasm
inside cell.
structure: composed of water
fxn: in which stuff dissolves
nucleous
structure: double membrane bound
organelle contains a cytoplasm like material called: nucleoplasm
DNA DISSOLVES HERE
nucleous fxn
contains/protects DNA control call fxn
RIBSTONES MADE AT NUCLEOUS
Occurs in 2 forms: roughER
and smoothER
roughER has rimbosomes
smothER does NOT have rimbosomes
mitochondria
structure: double membrane bond organelle
fxn: “the powerhouse” of the cell (ATP)(atp means energy)
cell membrane
The cell membrane is a flexible, sturdy barrier that delimits
the cell
what are the primary component of
Cellular membranes
phospholipids
Each phospholipid molecule has two regions
-HEADS are hydrophilic to interact with watery
environments inside and outside the cell
– TAILS are hydrophobic and form the interior of the
bilayer
cell support
and shape ,organization
of chemical reactions, cell
& organelle MOVEMENT
Cytoskeleton
membrane permeability
DIFFUSION: movement of molecules/compounds from high concentration to low concentration
FACILITATED DIFFUSION: movement of
active transport
needs energy to travel up and down (usually ATP)
simple diffusion
does not need energy to go high to low
facilitated diffusion
need help from protein to go up and down
the study of the entirety (or sum) of all the
genes within an organism
Genomics
ribosomes
structure: rna + proteins
fxn: all proteins made by robosomes
