Gen. Bio. PPTs: Cell Parts and Functions Flashcards
MajorClassification. Include protists, fungi, plants, and animals
Eukaryotes
What are the 3 basic cell structures of eukaryotic cell?
- Cell Membrane (Plasma Membrane)
- Nucleus
- Cytoplasm
CNC
Organelles. SECURITY GATE
* [Selectively permeable boundary] of the Cell
* Bilayer of phospholipids with proteins and short carbohydrate chains
* Regulates what [enters or exits] the cell
Cell Membrane
Organelles. All parts of the cell inside the membrane but outside the nucleus.
- Gel/Jelly-like substance in constant motion.
- Nutrients & Minerals spread through it to all parts of the cell.
Cytoplasm
Cytoplasm. A thick, aqueous solution of salts surrounding the organelles inside the cell membrane.
Cytosol
Cytoplasm. The constant motion of this gel-like substance is called ___________.
cytoplasmic streaming or cyclosis
Organelles. Headquarter / Cell Center
- Control/Transcription center of cell activities
- Made of DNA organized in chromosomes
> Also made up of nucleoplasm, nucleolus, nuclear membrane containing nuclear pores
Nucleus
_____ is the HEREDITARY MATERIAL of the cell
DNA
PartsNucleus. Cell may have 1 to 4 nucleoli
* DISAPPEARS when cell divides
Nucleolus
NUCLEOLUS makes __________ that makes ___________.
Ribosomes; Proteins
PartsNucleus. DOUBLE MEMBRANE surrounding nucleus.
Nuclear Membrane
NuclearMembrane. Contains __________ to regulate movement of molecules in and out of the nucleus.
nuclear pores
NUCLEAR MEMBRANE is connected to the ___________.
rough ER (Endoplasmic Reticulum)
Nucleus is found majority on _________ cells and considered as the LARGEST organelle.
a. Accounts for around _____ of the cell’s volume. Contains the _____.
Eukaryotic Cells
a. 10%; genome
Nucleus. The process of selectively permeable nuclear envelope SEPARATES the CONTENTS of the nucleus from that of the cytoplasm.
Cell COMPARTMENTalization
Nucleus. Involves FIRST TRANSCRIPTION (DNA transcribed to mRNA).
Gene Expression
Before the pre-mRNA exits the nucleus, it undergoes a process known as ______________ where molecules are added/removed from structure.
post-transcriptional modification
