|
Mitochondria
|
Found in both plant and animal cells
creates energy for the cell (glucose is too big a form of energy) so the mitochondria breaks down glucose into more usuable forms of energy called ATP site of cellular respiration double membrane inner membrane is site of aerobic respiration inner membrane is ruffled called the cristae mitochondria have their own DNA and make their own proteins |
|
centrioles
|
assit in cell division
only found in animal cells they are made of protein fibers |
|
Smooth and Rough ER
|
series of double membranes that loop back and forward between the cell membrane and the nucleus
fill up the cytoplasm rough ER has ribosomes attatched to it (where proteins are made) smooth ER has no ribosomes attatched to it acts as a way of transporting proteins |
|
Lysosomes
|
single membrane and a digestive enzyme (protein) inside
lysosomes dissolve bacteria and old organelles (called suicide sacks) |
|
Golgi Body
|
Proteins are sent through the cisternae- Packages proteins that are received from the rough ER and sends them off to the cytoplasm (some are made into lysosomes)
|
|
Nucleus
|
Controls all cell activity
Nuclear membrane has pores that allow ribosomes, RNA, and others to pass in and out Nucleus has chromatin in it Nucleus houses the nucleolus which is a ball of chromatin THE NUCLEOLUS MANUFACTURES RIBOSOMES the chromatin is the DNA |
|
Chloroplasts
|
where photosynthesis takes place in plant cells
makes glucose for the cell only in plant cells |
|
Autolysis
|
when the lysosome breaks open and self distructs in order to dissolve a bacteria etc
|
|
what is the difference between the outer and the inner structure of the mitochondria
|
outer- has a double membrane just protects the mitochondria
innter- called the cristae white ruffled folded structure |
|
where might have mitochondria have originiated from and why
|
they might have come from bacteria since mitochondria have their own set of DNA and create their own proteins
|
|
what does the outer membrane of the nucleus look like
|
it has pores that allow ribosomes RNA and others to pass in and out of the nucleus
|
|
describe the inner contents of the nucleus
|
chromatin- thick ropy strands that make up the nucleolus that make ribosomes- chromatin is also where the DNA is
nucleolus- condensed ball of chromatin |
|
what are the disk like structures in chloroplasts called
|
Grana- connected by thylakoid membranes
|
|
what is the cell theory
|
all cells come from other cells
all living things are made from cells cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things |
|
what are photographs viewed through a microscope called
|
micrographs
|
|
a cell part with a specific job is called a
|
organelle
|
|
what organelle does both plant and animal cells have that covers the cell
|
plasma membrane
|
|
what does the plasma membrane do
|
regulates chemicals going in and out of the cell
|
|
what is the area between the nucleus and the plasma membrane called
|
cytoplasm
|
|
what do plant cells have in addition to the plasma membrane
|
cell wall
|
|
what is the difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells
|
pro- only bacteria, no nucleus only organelle it has is ribosomes
eukar- has a nucleus enclosed by a membrane and all the other organelles with membranes |
|
what are the four types of eukaryotic cells
|
animal
plant fungi protista |
|
what are the two kinds of prokaryotic cells
|
eubacteria and archiobacteria
|

what two structures are found in plant but not animal cells
|
cell wall and choloroplasts
|
|
what two things make up the membrane of a cell
|
proteins and phospholipids
|
|
phospholipid bilayer
|
two layers of phospholipids that are sandwiched together that make up the membrane
|
|
what kind of molecules cross the membrane easily
|
small nonpolar molecules like oxygen
|
|
what kind of molecules do not pass through the membrane easily
|
large polar molecules like sugars
|
|
what role do proteins play in the phospholipid bilayer
|
enzymes- carry out chemical reactions
also proteins help cells communicate and recognize each other transport proteins- moves certain substances across the membrane |
|
diffusion
|
movement of the molecules of a substance from where they are more concentrated to where they are less concentrated

these membranes only let some substances pass through but block out other substances
cellular membranes are selectively permeable |
|
facilitated diffusion

|
facilitated diffusion diffusion and osmosis
passive transport- when the cell doesn't use any energy to move substances through the membrane |
|
osmosis
|
the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane
|
|
hypertonic
|
when there is a high concentration of solute and a lower concentration of water
|
|
hypotonic
|
when there is a lower concentration of solute and a higher concentration of water
|
|
in what direction does osmosis happen
|
water will move from the hypotonic side of the membrane to the hypertonic side of the membrane
