Exam 3 Flashcards
2 main extracellular fluids
- interstitial- fluid outside tissue cells
- plasma- around blood cells and w/I blood vessels
2 main ECF ions
- Na+ 142
- Cl- 103
2 main ICF ions
- K+ 140
- PO4 75
PO2 ECF vs ICF
ECF- 40
ICF- 20
pH of ECF vs ICF
ECF- 7.4
ICF- 7.0 (higher concentration of H)
microvilli
increase SA
cytosol (AKA intracellular fluid)
has free ribosomes
can become glycolytic enzymes or proteins in cytosol
Rough ER
- has ribosomes (translation occurs)
- synthesize membrane bound proteins
what do free ribosomes synthesize
hydrophilic cytosolic proteins
smooth ER (connects to RER)
- membrane embedded with numerous enzymes
- enzymes glycosylate proteins from RER
- enzymes synthesize lipids, FA, phospholipids, sterols
- membrane continuously growing and forming vesicles
Peroxisomes
vesicles containing enzymes like oxidases and catalases
what do oxidases do
breakdown toxic organic molecules to H2O2 (free radical)
what do catalases do
convert H2O2 into H20 + O2
transport vesicles
carry various products from the ER to other areas
Golgi body
received vesicles and products from ER for further processing
- composed of slacked vesicles
- bottom called cis face (composed of elongated vesicles)
- top called trans (composed of smaller vesicles)
what do products delivered to the golgi undergo
- seperations, sequestering, concentration
- glycosylation
- cross linking of peptides
what does the golgi synthesize
- proteoglycans
- heteropolysaccharides
secretory vesicles
transported from golgi to plasma membrane
- fuse plasma membrane and materials released into ECF
lysosomes
vesicle containing:
1. digestive enzymes (hydrolases)
2. high [H]
3. lysozyme- attack bacterial cell walks
4. lysoferrin- bind iron required by bacteria
endosomes “suicide bags”
vesicles derived from plasma membrane containing EC material (like bacteria)
nucleus
genetic control center of cell containing chromatin
- chromatin composed of dispensed chromosome
- each chromosome composed of 1DNA mol with hundreds of proteins
- human nuclei has 46 chromosomes
- chromatin surrounded by nuclear envelop (double membrane)
nucleolus
dark region in nucleus – site of RNA synthesis
