HAP Test 1b Flashcards
cell membrane
- selectively permeable
- composed of lipids and proteins with some carbohydrates
- double layer of phospholipid
- hydrophilic vs. hydrophobic
receptor proteins
receive and transmit messages into cell
integral proteins
form pores, channels and carriers in cell membrane
enzymes
transduce signal
cellular adhesion molecules
enable cells to stick to each other
cell surface proteins
establish self
intracellular membranes
- tight junction
- desmosome
- gap junctions
ribosomes
protein synthesis, no membrane
endoplasmic reticulum
- composed of membrane-bound flattened sacs
- synthesis of protein and lipid molecules
- may be secreted from cell or used within the cell
smooth ER
lipid synthesis, absorb fats and breaking down drugs
Golgi apparatus
refines, packages and delivers proteins synthesized on rough ER
vesicles
membranous sac that vary in size and contents, transport substances
mitochondria
lungs, provide energy to all of cell
lysosomes
“garbage” disposals, dismantle debris, tiny membranous sacs
- break down proteins, carbs and nucleic acids
peroxisomes
membranous sacs, catalyze metabolic reactions that release hydrogen peroxide and decompose it
centrosome
aid in cell division, lead to microtubules and spindle fibers
microfilaments made of…
actin
