The size of a cell depends on the amount of surface area needed to obtain necessary nutrients and dispose of wastes.
Give two examples of how cell size and shape are related to function.
a. Plants cells have a rigid cell wall for protection and to maintain a defined shape.
b. Animal cells are fluid to support more frequent chemically-based activity.

synthesize lipids

detoxify drugs and other harmful substances

store calcium ions
Names processes of rough ER
creates membrane for itself and other organelles

modify proteins that are transported to other organelles or are secreted
Explain the golgi apparatus and its relation to rough and smooth ER
The Golgi Apparatus serves as a figurative “post office” for cell processes as it receives and modifies substances made in the ERs and sorts them for distribution to other organelles.
List the functions of lysosomes
a. Lysosomes fuse with food vacuoles to facilitate the release of the food’s nutrients to the cell.

b. Lysomes fuse with damaged organelles or small amounts of cell fluid to recycle any organic molecules that can be reused for cell function.

c. Lysosomes play multiple roles in embryonic development. One example is that they help destroy the webbing that is formed between the fingers of human embryos.
How are lysomes related to fatal diseases?
If enough lysosomes lack the hydrolytic enzymes needed to process food, damaged organelles, cell fluid, or other matter, they can become engorged with these therefore indigestible substances and can interfere with other cellular functions.
Names the three cytoskeletal elements of a cell
microfilament

intermediate filament

microtubule
For microtubules, explain their importance in the 9+2 arrangement in the cilia and flagella.
Each outer-doublet connects into an identically-situated collection of triplets on the organism called a basalt structure. Since each doublet fits into a triplet unevenly, the travel of each microtubule to alternate fitting in spaces of the triplet facilitates movement of the cilia or flagella.
What problems do cell walls present in cell-to-cell communication and how do plants solve this?
Cell walls’ main function is to protect plasma membrane and the fragile organelles it houses from the exterior of the cell. This sectionalism makes inter-cell communication difficult, but in plant cells, plasomdesmata are channels in cells walls that transfer important nutrients such as water between cells.
List three cell-to-cell junctions in animals and where each is found.
TIGHT JUNCTIONS: In places where preventing contents from leaking into surrounding areas are necessary.

ANCHORING JUNCTIONS: Common to areas “subject to stretching or mechanical stress.”

GAP JUNCTIONS: Important in places where “chemical communication between cells is essential.”
