Q

Organell

A

Any membrane bound compartment inside a cell

17
Q

Filament

A

A long chain compormised of protein sub units

18
Q

Chromosome

A

Carry heritage Information

19
Q

Nucleus Envelope

A

1-Covers the nucleus
2- Regulate what comes in and out of a cell

20
Q

Cilia

A

Small flagella found in Eukaryotic Cells

21
Q

What do Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes cell share

A

1-Cell membrane
2-Chromosomes
3-Ribosomes
4-Cytoskeletal elements
4-Cell wall
5-Flagella
6-Organells

22
Q

Vacuole

A

Stores Molecules

23
Q

Endoplasmic Reticulum

A

1-Froms a network of tubules/ Branching network and sacs inside the cell
2- Where proteins, membrane lipids and other molecules are synthesized and or processed

24
Q

Microtubules

A

Large diameter, ha;llow cytoskeletal elements made of pairs of the proteins A-TUBULIN AND B-TUBULIN

25
Actin Filaments
Small diamter cytoskeletal fibers made of subunits of the protein Actin
26
Intermediate Filaments
Cytoskeletal fibers whose size in intermediate between those of actin filaments and microtubeles and can be made from a variety of protein subunits.
27
Cytoplasm
Region around the organelle
28
cytosol
The fuild like substance that make a cytoplasm
29
What are the key players in the Endomembrane System
1-Rough ER, Golgi, Microtubules, MotorProtiens
30
Signal sequence
A series of amino acids at the start of a protein that allows that protein to enter the endomembrane system.
31
Motor protein
A protein that functions in cell movement through shape changes caused by phosphorylation or dephosphorylation.
32
Phosphorylation
The addition of a phosphate group (PO43-) to a protein or other molecule. In most cases, the phosphate group comes from ATP. Dephosphorylation is the reverse process.
33
Evidence that support the theory of sndosymbosis
1-Two membranes 2-Singular circular chromosome 3-Ribosomes similar to the size of prokaryotic ribosomes 4-Can make own protein 5-Able to replicate independent of the cells
