Q

where are ribosomes free in

A

cytoplasm

17
Q

translation

A

ribosome reads rna and produces encoded protein

18
Q

er memb is

A

continuous with nuclear memb

19
Q

rer has

A

ribosome`

20
Q
  • After synthesis at the Rough ER, the proteins are then
A

chemically modified (adding sugars and/or phosphates) inside the ER. -After this they are packaged into transport vesicles and transported to the Golgi endomembrane system.

21
Q

what does ser do

A

The Smooth ER does not participate in protein synthesis. -Instead, it synthesises lipids, including cholesterol and phospholipids for the production of cell membranes. -In some cell types the Smooth ER makes steroid hormones (e.g., testosterone or oestrogen). -In the liver the Smooth ER detoxifies drugs. any chemical like paracetemol will be broken down in liver

22
Q

The mitochondria are the respiratory centres of the cell

A

Mitochondria: -The site of respiration (the process of harvesting energy from food molecules) -2 membranes. The outer is smooth, while the inner is folded into cristae or shelf-like structures. -They function as semi-autonomous organisms with their own DNA and ribosomes for making some of their own proteins. -The summary equation for cellular respiration is C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6O2 (oxygen) = 6CO2 (carbon dioxide) + 6H2O (water) + ATPs

23
Q

respiration occurs between

A

cytoplasm and mitochondrea

24
Q

chloroplast

A

Chloroplasts are a type of organelle called a plastid. They are found only in plant cells. They contain the pigment chlorophyll. Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts. •contain 3 membranes (outer, inner and thylakoid) –inner membrane surrounds a stroma which contains soluble enzymes, ribosomes, DNA, and thylakoids. A stack of thylakoids is a granum. –thylakoid membrane contains the energy transducing machine

25
Q

cytoskeleton

A

• unique to eukaryotes • correlated with the evolution of mitosis • Essential for successful eukaryotic cell division • a dynamic set of filaments • for cell shape, cell support (reinforcement), cell movement set of proteins that help cell move lets animals adopt to extreme shapes memb fingers draped on cytoskeletal proteins put finger inside scarf memberane anology

26
Q

vacoule

A
  • Most mature plant cells have one or more vacuoles that typically occupy more than 30% of the volume. - The vacuole houses water, contaning enzymes, ions, pigments, and toxic metabolic byproducts. - Transport of protons from cytosol to vacuole helps keep cytoplasmic pH stable. - Maintains turgor pressure against the cell wall (keeps cell inflated). - Pushes choloroplasts against the cellular membrane (closer to light). very important for life of the plant maintains enough liquid to push content of cell outside pushes chloropolast top also acts as a dumping ground for toxic metabolic products
27
Q

Extracellular Structures: Cell Wall in Plants and Fungi

A
  • a distinguishing feature of plant and fungi cells (cf animal cells) - rigid structure outside the plasma membrane - consists of polysaccharides - the main one is cellulose (or chitin) - support for the cell - limits cellular expansion, but prohibits shape change
