30 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
light microscopes and what do you see under them
visible light is passed through and then glass lenses refract (bend) the light

--organelles
magnification
ratio of an object's image to its real size
resolution
measure of the clarity of the image
ultrastructure
a cell's anatomy as revealed by an electron microscope
SEM and TEm
sem=surface
tem=internal intrastructure
cell fractionation
the disruption of a cell and separation of its organelles by centrifugation
cytology and biochemstiry
complement each other in correlationg cellular structure and function
what do all eukarytoic cells have in common with prokayrotic
--bounded by a plasma membrane and the membrane is a semifluid substance
--cytosol: where organelles are found
--contain chromosomes
--have ribosomes
what is the major difference of eukarytoic cells and prokaryotic
--chromosomes of eukaryotic are located in the nucleus
--in prokayrotic they are concentrated in the nucleoid
-the enter region between nuclelus and plasma membrane in eukaryotic is the cytoplasm
what is the general aspect of structure that relates to function
size
smallest cells
mycoplasmas
plasma membrane function
serves as a selective barrier that allows sufficient passage of oxygen, nutrients and wastes to service the entire volume of the cell
what do biological membranes consist of
double layer phospholipids and other lipids
pore complex
intricate protein that lines each pore and regulates hte entry and exiit of certain macromoluecules and particles
nuclear lamina
except at the pores, the nuclear side of the envelop is lined wiht this netlike array of protein filaments that maintains the shape of the nucleus by mechanically supporting the nuclear envelop
nuclear matrix
a framework of fibers extending throughout the nuclear interior
chromatin
the complex of dna and proteins that make up a eukaroytic chromosomes. when the cell is not dividing, chromatin exists as a mass of very long thin fibers
nucleolus
appear through the electron microscope as a mass of densely strained ganules and fibers adjoining at the part of the chromatin
cells that have a high rate of protein syntehsis have a high rate of what

and whats an example
ribosomes

pancreas
what do both nucleoli and ribosomes have
not enclosed in membranes
free ribosomes and examples
suspended in the cytosol

enzymes that catalyze the first step of sugar breakdown
bound ribosomes (ex)
attached to ER or nuclear envelop
--cells that specialize in protein secretion--for instance, the cells of the pancreas that secrete digestive enzymes--frequently have a high proportion of bound ribosomes
what does the ER consist of
a network of membranous tubules and sacs called cisternae
what does the ER do
separates the internal component of the ER, called the lumen (cavity) or cisternal space, from the cytosol
4 things about the smooth er
--synthesiszes lipids
--metabolizes carbs
---stores calcium
--detoxifies poison
4 things about rough ER
--has bound ribosomes
--produces proteins and membranes, which are distrubuted by transport vesibles
--is a membrane factory for the cell
--phosholipid itself is made in the ER
what are most secretary proteins
glycoproteins...proteins that have carbs covalently bonded to them
what does the golgi do
center of manufacturing, warehousing, sorting and shipping. especially extensive with secreting cells
what are the two pols of th gogli stack referred to
the cis face (receiving)
--located near the ER and the trans face (shipping)
transport vesicles
move materials from the ER to the golgi. a vesicle that buds from the
