What are the inner folds of mitochondria called?

Cristae

What are the functions of peroxisomes?

Breakdown of fatty acids, like alcohol. Help with metabolism.



What is the function of the nucleus?

Make DNA and RNA.



What is the function of the nucleolus?

Make ribosomes

What is the function of ribosomes?

Make polypeptides (soon to be protein)



Function of the Rough ER

Makes proteins

Functions of the Smooth ER

makes lipids, calcium storage



Functions of the Golgi Apparatus

Acts as a receiving dock and a shipping dock. As products go through the Golgi they are modified

Functions of lysosomes

Sac of digestive enzymes that digest food, and get rid of waste, break down bacteria

Functions of mitochondria

Makes energy in the form of ATP

Function of chloroplasts

Photosynthesis (converts light energy to chemical sugar energy)

Function of Cytoskeleton (cilia, flagella, and centrioles in animal cells)

Maintain cell shape, cell movement, transmissions of signals from the exterior of the cell to the interior

Function of the Extracellular Matrix (in animals)

Binds cells together and protects the plasma membrane

Functions of cell junctions

communication between cells, and binds cells together.

Functions of cell wall (plants)

Maintain cell shape, support, protect

What is the overview for this chapter?

Cells are made up of organelles which are used to manufacture, break down, and get energy from substances, support, and move the cell, communicate between cells.

Robert Hooke

Named cells after the tiny rooms in monestaries

Antoni Van Leeuwenhoek

Saw that cells could move

What do hair cells require a lot of?

Ribosomes. hair oil is made by the smooth ER

What ships, folds, and rearranges amino acids/

Golgi, DOES NOT PUT TOGETHER, RIBOSOMES DO!!!!!!

Function of contractile vacuole

Get rid of water in a cell (plants usually)

Endosymbiosis

When a smaller cill lives in a bigger cell and they both benefit from it

Cilia are

larger in quantity and smaller in size

There are no nucleic acids in the

ECM

What are the 3 junctions?

Tight- watertight


Gap- Communication


Anchoring- holds together (muscle and skin)

Anchoring junctions are also called ...

desmosomes

Being small allows cells to...

have a more favorable surface area to volume ratio (what their goal is)

What are not found in plant cells?

Lysosomes and centrioles

What are not found in animal cells?

Cell walls, chloroplasts, and central vacuole

Free ribosomes are...

suspended in the cytoplasm

Bound ribosomes are...

attached to the rough ER

Vacuoles

are small membrane segments that transfer info between organelles

Pigment vacuoles in plants

make flowers colored

Central vacuoles.....

use pressure to help the cell stay firm

Cellular respiration occurs in

the mitochondria

Two important fibers of the cytoskeleton are

Microfilament (rope) (made of actin)


Microtubules (made of tubulin)

Cells that sweep mucus out of our lungs have

Cilia

Animal sperm has

Flagella for movement

A group of chemicals that ruin sperm quality

Phthalates

Genetic examples why sperm quality might be bad:

PCD

ECM makes...

collagen (makes skin tight) and protects the plasma membrane.

Integrins

integrate signals and messages on the membrane

All living things require

proteins
