Eukaryotic Cells
|
membrane bound organelles & nucleus
true nucleus containing genetic material. Contain membrane bound organelles. |
|
Protista, Plantae, Fungi, Animalia
|
What kingdom are the eukaryotic cells in?
|
|
Cytoskeleton
|
Network of fibers that form a dynamic framework for support and movement.
|
|
cytoskeleton
microfilaments/actin filaments intermediate filaments microtubules organelles nucleus nucleolus E.R. Smooth E.R. Ribosomes Golgi Apparatus Lysosomes Mitochondria |
What's in the eukaryotic cells.
|
|
Microtubules
|
Form cilia, flagella, and centrioles.
|
|
Organelles
|
Specialized structures that perform specific functions. Sequester reactions.
Many contain folded membranes (increase surface area) |
|
Nucleus
|
Spherical or oval, contains DNA
|
|
Nuclear Envelope/Membrane
|
Double membrane perforated by pores. Maintains nuclear shape and regulates transport in and out of the nucleus.
|
|
Nucleolus
|
One or more spherical bodies within the nuclear envelope.
Functions in the synthesis of RNA. |
|
Rough E.R.
|
Studded with ribosomes. Site for synthesis of secretory proteins and membrane molecules.
|
|
Smooth E.R.
|
Lack ribosomes
synthesizes: Phospholipids Fats Steroids |
|
Ribosomes
|
Formed of 2 subunits: 60s and 40s
Free __________: suspended in the cytoplasm Bound _________: attached to ER Sites of protein synthesis. |
|
Golgi Apparatus
|
Flattened sacs, stacked on one another.
Receive and modify products from the ER. Packages products in vehicles: Transport, Secretory, and Storage. |
|
Lysosomes
|
stomach of cell
Membrane-enclosed sac of hydrolytic enzymes. Function in phagocytosis, Recycling cells own organic material If the leak out, the cell will die Programmed cell destruction |
|
Lysosomal storage disease
|
Lysosomes lack one of the hydrolytic enzymes.
eg. Tay-sachs disease: lack enzyme to digest lipid. Excess lipid accumulates and damages brain cells. |
|
Mitochondria
|
"power house of the cell"
|
|
Mitochondria
|
Inner membrane folds into cristae
Sites of cellular respiration (ATP production) |
|
semipermeable/selectively permeable
|
What is the name for the plasma membrane in eukaryotic cells?
|
|
Passive
Simple diffusion Facilitated diffusion Osmosis Osmoregulation Channel proteins gated channels Active transport |
What are the modes of transport for eukaryotic cells?
|
|
Transport
|
The movement of materials across the plasma membrane.
|
|
Passive transport
|
Does not require energy from the cell.
|
|
Simple diffusion
|
Molecules move from an area of greater concentration to an area of lesser concentration.
|
|
Facilitated diffusion
|
A carrier protein combines with a specific substance and moves it across the membrane.
|
|
Osmosis
|
The diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane. (water moves from a higher to a lower concentration of water)
Water moves toward a region of higher solute (dissolved substance) concentration. |
|
Osmoregulation
|
The control of water balance
|
|
Isotonic
Hypertonic Hypotonic Plasmoptysis plasmolysis |
What are the types of solutions in eukaryotic cells?
|
|
Isotonic
|
Concentration of dissolved substances are the same inside and outside the cell. No net flow of water.
same inside as outside |
|
Hypertonic
|
above/exceeding
high solute concentration more dissolved solution in environment than in cell. |
|
Hypotonic
|
lower/below
Low solute concentration outside in environment |
|
Plasmoptysis
|
Osmotic lysis
Bursting of a cell in a hypotonic solution becuase water moves into the cell. |
|
Plasmolysis
|
Shrinkage of the cytoplasm due to loss of water in a hypertonic solution
happens because water leaves cell. |
|
Channel proteins
|
Proteins which form channels through the membrane allowing passsage of certain molecules
gated channels: some can act as "gates" that open and close. |
|
gated channels:
|
some can act as "gates" that open and close.
|
|
Active Transport
|
Can move substances against their concentration gradient.
Requires that the cell expend energy (ATP) eg. Sodium-Potassium pump |
|
Endocytosis
Exocytosis |
What do eukaryotic cells use for transportation of large particles?
|
|
Endocytosis
|
Bringing it into the cell.
Phagocytosis Pinocytosis Receptor-mediated Endocytosis |
|
Exocytosis
|
Vacuole fuses with plasma membrane & expels contents from cell.
brings particles out of cell. |
