Unit 2: Cells/Tissues Flashcards
DNA
This cell contains hereditary instruction for building proteins and control cell functions
Nucleus and Nuclear Envelope
This houses the DNA and nucleolus in eukaryotic cells
Lysosome
This cell would need hydrolyzing enzymes to break down organic material and damaged cell parts
Smooth ER
This cell synthesizes lipids, stores calcium ions in muscle
Mitochondria
this cell needs to release energy stored in food to make a more usable form of energy for the cell
Golgi Apparatus
this cell packages products from the ER into vesicles. these products can then be released to and from cells
Rough ER
synthesized proteins (via embedded ribosomes) that will be packaged by the cells
microvilli
this is found in or on cells whose main function is absorption
Structure: Centrioles
Function: organize spindle fibers
Impact of cell: Mitosis
Structure: Chromatin
Function: genetic material within nucleus
Impact: instructions for making proteins
Structure: Cytoplaste
Function: includes cellular organelles and cytosol contains enzymes
Impact: mediates cytosolic reactions
Structure: Smooth ER
Function: site of lypid synthesis and detoxification of drugs
Impact: detox and make lipids
Structure: Cytoskeleton
Function: main structural support composed of robules and filaments
Impact: helps maintain shape/foundation
Structure: Rough ER
function: synthesize protein, lysome secretioin
impact: cells that secrete alot of protein
Structure: Golgi Apparatus
Function: receives proteins from rough er and modifies, packages and sorts
impact: make/finish products
Structure: Lysosome
Function: membrane enclosed sac w/enzyme
impact: breakdown intracellular debris
Structure: Mitochondria
Function: site of cellular respiration to form atp
impact: drives active transport nd metabolic process
Structure: Nucleolus
Function: synthesizes RNA, assembles ribosomes
Impact: impacts protein production
Structure: Nucleus
function: contains the cells genetic material
impact: control center of the cell
Structure: Perioxisomes
function: breaks down lipids and tonic substances
impact: detox
Structure: Plasma Membrane
function: selective permeable membrane between intra/extra environment
impact: maintains a boundary
Structure: Ribosome
function: sites of protein synthesis
impact: makes proteins
structure: Vacuole
function: storage unit
impact: stores fat
Structure: Inclusion
function: intracellular, non living substances that are not bound by a membrane
impact: temporary food/fluid exchange
Transports materials within blood vessels
blood
inner supporting framework if spleen, liver, and lymph nodes
reticule
tough tissue that connects bone to bone and muscle to bone
dense regular
cartlidge that retains its original shape after being deformed such as cartlidge of the ear
elastic cartlidge
helps keep the body warm and stores excess fuel (energy)
adipose tissue
forms the ends of longbones, larynx, costal cartlidge, and embryonic skeleton
hyaline cartlidge
