Q

what happens inside the nucleus

A

DNA combines with protein for chromatin
chromatin forms chromosomes
DNA is replicated in nucleus
site of genetic control

played a role in metabolic processes

17
Q

functions of smooth ER

A

synthesis of lipids
metabolites energy
stores calcium

18
Q

Rough ER

A

produce proteins for the rest of the cell

19
Q

ribosome

A

located in rough ER

to make proteins for the rough er to distributed

20
Q

what is the process of synthesis proteins from the rough ER

A
  1. when a polypeptide is synthesized on a ribosome it is threaded into the er through a pore
  2. when it enters the ER, new protein folds into 3D conformation
  3. in the lumen, enzymes can modify protein by adding carbs or liquids
  4. then secretary proteins depart wrapped is transport vesicles
21
Q

what is the process of synthesizing membranes

A

some proteins made by the ribosomes in ER get placed into the ER membrane itself
hence, the er membrane becomes bigger
some breaks off and ends up in other organelles

22
Q

vacuoles

A

sacs within the cell made out of the same material as the cell membranes

23
Q

vesicles

A

very small vacuoles

made at the golgi apparatus

24
Q

function of vesicles

A

carry protein molecules either to other organelles or cell membrane

25
golgi apparatus
received protein from the ER
26
cis region og GA
receives vesicles from ER
27
trans region of GA
vesicles but off from golgi apparatus and are moved to cell mebrane
28
functions of the golgi
processing proteins sorting proteins secretion of proteins
29
what does the golgi do in plant cells
polysaccharides are synthesized
30
peroximes
contain a variety of enzymes in order for the body to rid toxins transfers hydrogen from various substances to oxygen
31
what is the intermediate product form the peroximes job
hydrogen peroxide
32
role of the peroximes
to protect cells from its own production of hydrogen peroxide converts it into water
33
lysosomes
small bags filled with hydrolytic enzymes | acidic
34
function of lysosomes
break down proteins, carbs, nucleic acids and lipids
35
primary lysosomes
bud from golgi complex
36
secondary lysosomes
form from fusion of a primary with a vesicle
37
why do animal cells need lysosomes
to digest and use food for energy
38
why are lysosomes not needed in plant cells
plants cells have walls tough enough to keep large foreign objects out of the cell
39
autophagy
when lysosomes degrade worn out organelles | make their molecules available for new organelles
40
phagocytosis
amoebas and other protists eat by engulfing food particles
41
end-membrane systems
organelles either directly continuous or connected by transfer of vesicles
42
functions of the end-membrane system
``` synthesis of proteins transporting of protein into membranes and organelles metabolism movement of lipids detoxification of poisons ```
