cell (or plasma) membrane

A
  • phospholipid bilayer with associated proteins
  • separates cell from its environment

Q

Endoplasmic reticulum

A

extensive network of membranes

1) Rough ER (rER)– with ribosomes
- site of translation of membrane bound and secreted proteins
2) smooth ER (sER)- lacks ribosomes
- lipid and steroid synthesis and drug detoxification

Q

Ribosomes

A
  • Complex of rRNA and r-proteins
  • location of translation (protein synthesis)

Free ribosomes-in cytoplasm
bound ribosomes- attached to ER

Mitochondria

A

Power house of the cell

1) surrounded by double membrane
- outer mitochondrial membrare
- inner mitochondrial membrane (folder into cristea)

2) site of pyruvate oxidation, Kreb’s cycle, and electron transport chain

Q

Centrioles

A

a pair of organelles that organize microtubules into spindles on which chromosomes are seperated when cells divide

17
Q

Lysosomes

A

membrane bound organelle

-contains hydrolytic (digestive) enzymes
