CYTOPLASM COMPONENTS Flashcards
a gel-like matrix consists of water , enzymes , nutrients , wastes , gases , and contain cell structure organelles .
cytoplasm
a fluid that surrounds the organelles
cytosol
most of the metabolic reactions occur in
occur in the cytoplasm
an organelles that are surrounded by one layer of membranous
Peroxisomes, Golgi Complex, Lysosomes, Endoplasmic Reticulum
an organelles that are surrounded by two layer of membranous
Nucleus, Mitochondria
Organelles that are not surrounded by membranes
Ribosomes, Cytoskeleton, Centrioles
Specialized for synthesizing ATP
mitochondria
the power house
mitochondria
They are diverse in size, number, and shape; some are rod- like, and others are more or less spherical.
mitochondria
usually has folds called cristae
inner membrane
The space between the cristae, is called the matrix, contains ribosomes, enzymes used in ATP synthesis, and a small, circular DNA molecule called mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA).
The space between the cristae
It is a network within the cytoplasm, which is a system of interconnected channels called cisternae by a unit membrane. functioning as routes for transport of proteins within the cell
endoplasmic reticulum
has a network of tubules ( cisternae ) , are not attached with the ribosomes , the enzymes carry out the detoxification , store the intracellular “ Ca2+” ,and release it , involved in the synthesis of lipids and Steroid hormones .
SER , smooth endoplasmic reticulum
has network of tubules , attached with ribosomes , The proteins synthesized on the external surface , stored , and exported from the cell , makes the lysosomes ,
RER , rough endoplasmic reticulum
they are may be covered on their outer surfaces by ribosomes
Membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum
