Tissues - Unit 2 Flashcards
gelatinous liquid that fills the inside of a cell and surrounds organelles
cytoplasm
the fluid of cytoplasm. contains/dissolves nutrients, wastes, enzymes, and signaling molecules
cytosol
the intracellular machinary. serval types. “machines that carry cell basic process”
organelles
type of organelle: powerhouse of cell
mitochondria
type of organelle: enclosed by a membrane. has O2 and makes most of the cell’s ATP. Looks like a kidney bean, red, and is copied from mom’s cell.
mitochondria
type of organelle: produces protein by binding/transferring RNA. tiny, and at the site of translation in DNA.
ribosomes
the highway of the cell
endoplasmic reticulum
type of organelle: a network of membranous tubules continuous with the nuclear membrane
endoplasmic reticulum
two parts of the endoplasmic reticulum
rough ER and smooth ER
type of ER: contains ribosomes bound to surface. takes new proteins from ribosomes and folds them into their functional structure which then packaged into vesicles and delivered to Golgi apparatus
Rough ER
type of ER: stores Ca^(+2), and makes steroid molecules. Lacks ribosomes.
Smooth ER
type of organelle: receives proteins from rough ER and adds final modifications and folding to then become fully functioning then packaged in vesicles and delivered to parts of cell and out of cell through exocytosis. looks like waffle fries.
golgi apparatus
type of organelle: post office of the cell.
golgi apparatus
type of organelle: vesicles filled with digestive enzymes. they break down old/worn out/dysfunctional organelles by fusing to them (endocytosis). (aka chemical recycling).
lysosomes
type of organelle: clean-up crew
lysosomes
