|
|
Cell well
|
The cell wall is composed of cellulose fibrils. The function is to provide support and protection
|
|
Nuclues
|
The nucleus is enclosed in the nucleur envelope; contains chromatin (threads of DNA and protien) and nucleus( produces ribosomes). Its function is to store genetic information synthesis of DNA & RNA
|
|
Nuecleolus
|
Concentrated area of chromatin, RNA, and protiens. Function: Produces subunits of ribosomes.
|
|
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
|
Membranous flattened channels and tubular canals
function is synthesis and/or modification of protiens and other substances; transport by vesicle formation. |
|
Rough ER
|
Studded with ribosomes. Function is protien synthesis
|
|
Smooth ER
|
Lacks ribsomes. Function is synthesis of lipids.
|
|
Golgi Apparatus
|
Stack of membranous saccules. Function; processes packages, and distributes protiens and lipids.
|
|
Vacuole and Vesicle
|
Membrane-bounded sac for storage of substances
|
|
Lysosme
|
Vesicle containing hydrolic enzymes. Digest macromolecules and cell parts
|
|
Perixisome
|
Vesicle containing specific enzymes; Breaks down fatty acids and converts resulting hydrogen peroxide to water; varios other functions.
|
|
Mitochondrin
|
Membranous thylakoids bounded by an outer membrane; carries out cellular resperation, producing ATP molecules.
|
|
Chloroplast
|
Membranous cristae bounded by two membranes; carries out photosynthesis, producing sugars.
Only found in plant cells |
|
Cytoskeleton
|
Microtubles, intermediate filaments, actin fillaments.
Maintains cell shape and assist movement of cell parts. |
|
Cilia and flagella
|
Function is movement of cell.
|
|
Centrioles
|
Unknown function.
Only in animal cell |
|
Diffusion
|
Is the movement of molecules from a higher to a lower concentration until equilibrium is achieved and the molecules are distributed equally.
|
|
Tonicity
|
is the relative concentration of solute(particles), and also a solvent(water), outside the cell compared with inside the cell.
|
|
Isotinic solution
|
has the same concentration of soluteas the cell. Animal cells prefer. Plant cells become flaccid.
|
|
Hypertonic solution
|
Has a higher solute(lower water) concentration than the cell. Both animal and plants cells shrivel.
|
|
Hypotonic solution
|
Has a lower solute(higher water) concentration than the cell. Animal cells- Lysed (burst) and plant cells become turgid (normal).
|
|
Turgor pressure
|
When plant cells are placed in a hypotonic solution, the large centrole vacule gains water and exerts pressure.
|
|
Plastmosis
|
When plant cells are placed in a hypertonic solution solution, the centrole vacuole loses water and the cytoplasm, including chloroplast, pulls away from the cell wall.
|
|
PH Scale
|
We use the PH Scale to describe how acidic or basic a solution is. PH stands for potential of hydrogen.
Range from 0 (acidic) to 14 (basic). |
|
Buffer
|
Substances that minimize the changes in PH.
A system of chemicals that takes us excess hydroger or hydroxide ions, as appropriate. |
