organelles jack Flashcards
nucleus main functions
.control centre of cell
.retain gm as dna and chromosomes
.make ribosomes
nuclear envolope
double membrane
continues onto er
pores allow dna, rna and ribosomes in and out of cell
nucleolus
denser than nucleus and forms ribosomes
mitochondria main function
production of atp
cristea function
folded inner membrane, large sa as has proteins and enzymes on it involved in respiration
example of cell thats needs alot of mitochondria
epithilial cell as absorbs nutrients from intestine via active transport so needs alot of energy
matrix function
contains proteins, lipids, dna and enzymes involved in production of some of own proteins
chloroplasts main fucntion
carry out photosynthesis
chloroplast envelope functions
double plasma membrane, highly selective in what it allows in and out
grana fucntion
100 thylakoids
within thylakoids is chlorophyll and is where the light absorption part of reaction occurs
stromo fucntion
where second stage of photosynthesis occurs where sugars are synthesised
