M7: Cell Modification Flashcards
Cells whose structure are modified or change after cell division.
Cell Modifications
APICAL

cilia
flagella
microvilli
stereocilia
ensures cells can be able to function well.
Modifications
Found at the top of a cell
apical
Found at the base of a cell
BASAL
BASAL

basal lamina
basal infoldings
hemidesmosomes
Found at the side of a cell
LATERAL
LATERAL
- T_______ j_________
- g____ j_________
- D__________
tight junction
gap junction
desmosomes
Hairlike structure
Short, tapers distally
Cilia
Attached at the apex of columnar epithelium
Cilia
Mostly found in eukaryotic cells
Cilia
motile: able to move
Cilia
is an apical modification that has a sweeping movement
Cilia
In Humans, Commonly seen in the respiratory and urinary tubes
Cilia
Finger -like structure
Microvilli
Extremely thin and short
Microvilli
Non - motile
Microvilli
Function: absorption of materials
Microvilli
Attached to columnar epithelial cells found most commonly in the intestines and kidney tubules
Microvilli
Whiplike structure
Long
Flagella
Occur at one end of the cell
Flagella
Can be found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell
Flagella
undulatory movement (can move 360 degrees or wavelike movement)
Flagella
Function: Locomotion
Flagella
Brush like
Rigid
Stereocilia
Attached to plasma membrane of epithelial cells
Stereocilia
Immobile
Stereocilia
Function: Hearing and Balance
Stereocilia
Also known as the basement membrane
Basal Lamina
It is an extracellular matrix - a large network of proteins and other molecules that surround, support, and give structures
Basal Lamina
From proteins produce by the epithelial cell
Basal Lamina
Filter blood entering the epithelial cells and acts as scaffolding of regenerating epithelial cells
Basal Lamina
It is an extracellular matrix - came from proteins produced by epithelial cell
Basal Lamina
It is an extracellular matrix - protein:collagen
Basal Lamina
