Unit 1: Chapter 5 Part 3 Cell Biology of Bacteria and Eukaryotes (Eukaryotes ONLY) Flashcards
What is the endomembrane system from inner to outer?
Outer membrane of the nucleus
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Golgi apparatus
Vesicles then can direct it to the lysosome or plasma membrane
What is the largest organelle in eukaryotes?
Nucelus
The nucleus is a double membrane organelle that’s main function is
to store DNA
Function of the nucleolus
It is where ribosomes are made which are then sent to the cytoplasm
Function of the rough ER
Is rough due to the ribosomes on top
Helps the folding of the proteins
Function of the smooth ER
Continuous with the rough Er
Main function is to make lipids and hormones; detoxification
How are proteins transported to the golgi apparatus?
Through vesicles
Function of the golgi apparatus
This is like the post office
Transporting, modifying, and packaging proteins and lipids into vesicles for delivery for targeted destinations
What is exocytosis?
Exporting contents out of the cell
Vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane and exits the cell
What is endocytosis?
Import contents into the cell
Function of Mitochondria
ATP; Powerhouse of the cell
Electron Transport Chain
Double membrane matrix closed by inner membrane
Function of Chloroplast
Double membrane
Contains thylakoids for photosynthesis
Convert light energy to chemical energy through photosynthetic process
Which two organelles are called endosymbiosis and why?
The mitochondria and the chloroplast because they both posses their own nucleic acids and there membranes are like prokaryotes
Function of Flagella
Tend to be at the ends of the cell
Long and 1-2 of them
Helps with cell movement
Function of Cilia
Small, short, and all around the cell
Helps with movement
Can be used to capture food
