Organelles Flashcards
Nucleus - composition
double membrane
Nucleus- contains
genetic material
Nucleus - functions
pores in membrane that control entry and exit of substances in and out of the nucleus
Ribosome - function
translate mRNA into proteins
Ribosomes - sorts (2)
bound and free ribosomes
free ribosomes - make?
cytosolic proteins
free-ribosomes - functions
incorporrated into cytoskeleton, mitochondria, paroxisome
bound-ribosome - attachment
exterior surface of RER
Bound-ribosome - functions
make proteins incorporated into membrane. transported inside organelles or transported outside the cell
vesicles - composition
small membrane bound sac
vesicles - functions
transportbetween component of endomembrane system
edoplasmic reticulum (ER) - composition
network of internal membrane
ER - sorts (2)
smooth ER
rough ER
SER- particularity
w /out ribosomes attached
RER - particularity
w/ ribosomes attached
Golgi - composition
made of flattened , stacked membrane saCS
Golgi - Funtions
modifies proteins into the vesicles
lysosomes - composition
membrane-bound sac of enzyme
lysosome - functions
- intracellular digestion
- recycle organelles
- apoptosis
- destroy bacteria
lysosome - pH
4.8
vacuoles - composition
membrane-bound sac, larger than vesicles
food vacuoles - functions
intracellular digestion
food vacuoles - fusion
fuses with lysosome
vacuoles - sorts
- food vacuoles
- contractile vacuoles
- central vacuoles
contractile vacuoles - functions
pump excess water IN PROTOZOA
central vacuoles - functions
IN PLANTS storage of ions
peroxisome - conposition
single- membrane-bound organelles
proxisome - contains
enzymes
peroxisome - functions
oxidase - H–> O2
catalase - H2O2 –> H2O
mitochondria - composition
bacteria = double membrane
mitochondria - functions
aerobic cellular respiration
mitochondira - particularity
can grow and reproduce
mitochondria - possess
mtDNA and ribosome
plastids - composition
double membrane not made of ER
plastids - organism
ONLY IN PLANTS AND ALGEA
microtubules- compostion
hollow tubes of tubulin dimers
microtubules - functions
- shape and support
- intracellular transport
- chromosome division
- motion cilia and flagella
microfilaments - composition
solid filaments of ACTIN units twisted double chain
microfilaments - functions
- support
- muscle contractions
- cytokinesis of ANIMAL cell
- ameboid movement cytoplasmic streaming in PLANTS
- block exocytosis of hormones
intermediate filaments - composition
two rods twisted in helix
intermediate filaments - functions
- cell shape support
- fix shape of organelles
- form nuclear lamina
- form junctions olding cells together
