Cell
|
structural and functional unit of all living matter, vary in size shape and function
|
|
Cell membrane
doorman physically holds it together and selects substabces to entor or leave |
Cell is encased in a cell membrane that is also called a plasma membrane, it separates the intracellular (inside) from the extracellular (outside of cell) physically holds it together. selects substances to enter or leave the cell
|
|
Semi Permiable
|
sellectively permiable, selecting and allowing substances in or out of the cell
|
|
Nucleus
|
Control center or power house of cell, controls the workings of an entire cell, contains the genetic info and controls protein synthesis
|
|
Nucleoplasm
|
substance that fills nucleus
|
|
Nuclear membrane
|
large pores that allow free movement of certain substances between the nucleus and cytoplasm
|
|
Cytoplasm
|
gel like substnce found in the cell but "outside the Nucleus" The gell in the cell is primarily comprised of water electrolytes and nutrients
|
|
Organelles
|
Part of the cytoplasm, little organs that play a specific role
|
|
Mitochondria
Slipper Shaped How hard it works |
Tiny slipper shaped organelles, the number depends on how hard the cell works
|
|
Ribosomes
Protein makers, some like to hang out in the ER |
Cytoplasmic Organelles that are associated with protein synthesis
some are attatched to the Endoplasmic Reticulum "ER" |
|
Endoplasmic Reticulum
"ER" |
network of membranes within cytoplasm , the long folded membranes form channels for substances to move through, two types of ER Rough and Smooth
|
|
Rough ER
proteins |
Rough sandpaprer like appearance , RER is concerned with protein synthesis , then hooks up with the Golgi Apparatus
|
|
Smoothe SER
lipids steroids |
SER is smoothe when the ER doesn't contain ribosomes on its surface it is smoothe and not sandpaper lke, it is sconcerned with lipids and steroids
|
|
Golgi Apparatus
Packages it up and wraps it |
series of flattened membrane sacs , protien sythesized along ER are transported to Golgi thru channels formed by ER, golgi puts the finishing touches on protein, wraps it up
|
|
Lysosomes
Garbage Men (lysol) clean the house Phagocytosis |
Membrane sacs that contain powerful enzymes; digestive organelles that break down waste and debris
|
|
Cytoskeleton
cells skeleton |
tiny tube like structures that maintain the shape of the cell, assists in the movement
|
|
Centrioles
pairs |
Paired rod like structures, key role is reproduction
|
|
Flagella
sperm |
Whiplike similar to cilia because both are hairlike, thicker, longer with tail
sperm |
|
Cilia
move mucus and trapped dust away from lungs |
short hairlike projections on outer surface
|
|
Movement across the cell membrane
|
Passive Transport
Active Transport |
|
Passive transport
require no additional energy in the form of ATP |
Diffusion
Facilitated diffusion osmosis filtration |
|
Active Transport
requires an input of energy thru ATP |
Active Transport Pumps
Endocytosis (Phagocytosis) (Pinocytosis) Exocytois |
|
Diffusion
Like Osmosis but without water |
Movement of a substance from an area of higher concentration to an area with lower concentration
|
|
Facilitated Diffusion
like diffusion but has a "helper" |
a "Helper" molecule within the membrane that assists the movement of substances from a higher concentrated to lower concentrated
|
|
Osmosis
brings a full glass of water to a person that is almost out |
Movement of water(solvent) from an area with more water to an area with less
|
|
Filtration
Pushy |
Movement of water and dissolved substance from an area of high pressure to an area with low pressure, the water and dissolved substances are pushed.
|
|
Active Transport Pumps
ATP Uphill, packs low concentration to high, requires input |
ATP moves a substance uphill (from an area of LOW concentration to an area of high Requires an input of energy
|
|
Endocytosis
takes in or ingests |
Taking in or ingesting substances by the cell membrane
|
|
Pagocytosis
Cellular eating |
Engulfing solid particles by the cell membrane
|
|
Pinocytosis
cellular drinking |
Cell engulfs liquid droplets
|
|
Exocytosis
secretion, exiting debris and waste |
process by which the cell secretes waste products out of cell
|
|
Isotonic Solution
|
same concentration as cellular fluid Iso means same
Saline IV |
|
Hypertonic
|
too much salt in the solution, water rushes out causes the red blood cell to shink or crenate because water rushes out
|
|
Hypotonic
|
a solution containing no solute, water is dominant and will rush in to place with least amount, (osmosis) causing RBC to burst
|
|
RBC
|
red blood cell
|
|
Commonly used isotonic solution
Most IV solutions |
5% (dextrose or glucose in water or DW5 and ringers solution,
|
