lab exam Flashcards
nucleus
contains DNA or genetic material which is responsible for the instructions of the cell
chromatin
uncondensed form of DNA and spread out
nucleolus
where ribosomes are made
ribosomes
synthesizes protein
cytoplasm
jelly-like substance
rough ER
has ribosomes attached
smooth ER
synthesise liipids, phospholipids and steroids
golgi complex
consist of cis face and trans face, receives vesicles of proteins from ER and sends them out to proper destination and modifies into different groups
centrosome
made up of 2 centrioles and point of origin of the mitotic spindle
cytoskeleton
made up of microtubles (cilia, flagella), microfilaments (movement of within cell), intermediate filaments (structural support),
what is cilia and flagella
cilia is the hair-like outside cells to sweep substances
flagella tail-like outside cell to move
mitotic spindles
used for chromatid separation to opposite poles
microvilli
hair-like on surface of cells, increases surface area, for absorption
mitochondria
2 membranes inner and outer, cristae inside inner membrane, generates ATP
nuclear envelope
contains pores for ribosomes and RNA
protects DNA
explain the steps of interphase
During G1 (1st Gap phase), the cell grows and conducts normal cellular functions.
The cell also prepares for cell division by duplicating most of the organelles and other
cytoplasmic materials.
b) During the S phase (synthesis) of interphase, DNA is replicated.
c) During G2 (2nd Gap phase) Enzymes and other proteins that will aid in mitosis are
produced, and centriole replication is completed.
what kind of cells enter G0 PHASE
muscle and neuron cells
