nucleus
|
houses genetic material of the cell and nucleolus
|
|
nucleolus
|
only sometimes there, makes rRNA
|
|
mitochondria
|
double membrane, large surface area from folds, create E and ATP through cellular respiration
|
|
ribosomes
|
helps protein synthesis 1 mRNA with ribosomes everywhere = polysome
|
|
golgi apparatus
|
harbors vesicles, modify macromolecules (lipids + protein), ship them to correct locations (post office)
|
|
rough ER
|
site of membrane and protein synthesis (ribosomes transmembreane exocyctosis) , lots of surface area HUGE
|
|
smooth ER
|
site for synthesis and metabolism of lipids, has important enzymes, in muscles as well
|
|
lysosomes
|
have enzymes of pH 5 called lysosymes take damaged cell parts and break them up and resist infection by breaking down bacteria
|
|
chloroplast
|
major role in protein syntheis 3 membranes, surface area, membrane catches light, chlorofil in stacks
|
|
cytoskelton
|
network of protein filiaments microtubles = railroad system, actin = protein dissassemble/reassemble, intermediate - scaffolding, all dynamic, organize mitosis and composed of tublin monomers
|
|
cytoplasm
|
area in cell with nothing
|
|
vacuole
|
central one is only in plants, temporarily stores something ingested by the cell, big
