cells are composed of 3 major parts
1. cytoplasm
2. nucleus
3. plasma membrane
cytoplasmic cytosol
fluid portion/ site of chemical reactions
cytoplasmic organelles
cellular growth, maintenance and production
endoplasmic reticulum
network of membranes in the form of tubles
2 types of ER
rough and smooth
rough ER
outer surface studded with ribosomes
smooth ER
lack ribosomes
ribosomes
composed of protein and mRNA
golgi complex
group of flattened membranous sacs
mitchondria
outer and inner membrane, inner membrane contains elongated fluid dilled folds called cristae
lysosomes
contains enzymes
peroxisomes
most abundant cells in liver
portensome
tiny barrel shape structure of 4 stacked rings of protein
centirsomes
nonmembraneous structure composed of two hollow cylinders called centrioles
cilia
moves fluid cell surface
flagella
moves entire cell
cytosol
building blocks and maintenance of cell structure and growth
organelles
aid in cellular growth maintanence and reproduction
cytoskeleton
maintain shape and general organization of cellular contents
centrosomes
used for growth of mitotic spindle
ribosomes
site of protein synthesis
endoplasmic reticulum
synthesizes glycoproteins and phospholipids
golgi complex
entry accepts proteins from ER/ exit modifies molecules and packages for transport
lysosome
garbage disposal
peroxisome
contain oxidase and catalase
oxidase
breakdown organic molecules
catalase
breakdown H2O
protensome
cuts damaged proteins into small peptides
mitochondria
generates ATP through cellular respirations
plasma membrane
flexible outer surface
permeable membrane
open to passage or penetration of substances
selectively permeable membrane
allows entrance and exit of some substances
plasma membrane description
- complex surface
- metabolic reactions take place on surface
-conduit between cell and environment
plasma membrane function
- maintain integrity
-control passage of material
- provide signal transduciton
plasma membrane head
-hydro-philic
-form surface of membrane
plasma membrane tail
hydro-phobic
- make up interior
2 types of passive process
diffusion and osmosis
diffusion
simple and facilitated
simple diffusion
random movement from higher to lower concentration
facilitated diffusion
random movement from higher to lower concentration by carrier molecules
osmosis
H2O molecules move from higher concentration to lower across selectively permeable membranes
2 types of active process
active transport and transport in vesicles
active transport
primary- energy of hydrolysis of ATP is used in carrier protein
secondary- indirectly uses energy obtained by ATP
Endocytosis receptor
mediated membrane engulfs selected membranes combined with receptor protein
phagocytosis
cell takes in solid
bulk phase endocytosis (pinocytosis)
cell takes in tiny droplets of liquids
exocytosis
vesicle fuse with membrane and release contents outside of cell
transcytosis
movement resulting from endocytosis on one side and exocytosis on the other
