What types of cells are there?
-What is each limited to? -What does one lack? |
Prokaryotic : Limited to Bacteria, lack a membrane enclosed nucleus and lack compartmentilization
-Are also older Eukaryotic : Compartmentilized, each of which are organelles, all multitask |
|
Nucleus
|
-Storage of DNA
-Contains nucleulos, which is where ribosomes are made -Networks through the endomembrane system which consists of -Rough E.R -Smooth E.R -Golgi Complex -Vacuoles -Has a double membrane called the nucleur envelope - |
|
Membrane Structure
-What is a phospholipid? -How is the phospholipid bilayer structured -A membrane is a ______ mosaic because ______ |
-Phospolipids are related to fats but only have 2 fatty acid tails
-Has a phopshate group as the head, it is hydrophillic, allowing molecules to pass through -A membrane is a fluid mosaic because the molecules can move freely past one another, and a mosaic because of the proteins that float around -What it looks like O || || O |
|
Cell Surfaces
-What does a plant have that an animal does not, what is it purpose, and what is it made out of -Animal cells excrete, what is their purpose |
-Plant cells have cell walls made from cellulose
-Animal cells have an extracellular matrix that holds cells together in tissues |
|
How do cells talk to eachother
-What is the method in plants -What is the method in animals |
-Plasmodesmata in plants
-Gap Junction in animals |
|
Cytoskeleton
-Made of what macromolecule\ -What purpose do Microtubules serve -What purpose do Intermediate Filaments serve |
Microtubules
-Maintenance of cell shape -Movement of Organelles -Cell Mobility, through Cillia, and Flagella Intermediate Fillaments -Maintenance of cell shape Microfilaments -Changes in cell shape |
|
Golgi Apparatus
-What is its purpose -What network is it apart of -How do things import/export |
-A packaging facility, works with ER
-Receives chemical products of cell -Imported and exported through transport vesicles -Exports to organelles or out of cell, through membrane |
|
Cytoskeleton
-Made of what macromolecule\ -What purpose do Microtubules serve -What purpose do Intermediate Filaments serve |
Microtubules
-Maintenance of cell shape -Movement of Organelles -Cell Mobility, through Cillia, and Flagella Intermediate Fillaments -Maintenance of cell shape Microfilaments -Changes in cell shape |
|
Smooth E.R
-What is its purpose? |
-Smooth because of lack of ribosomes
Functions -Synthesis of lipids, namely steroids -Detoxification |
|
Golgi Apparatus
-What is its purpose -What network is it apart of -How do things import/export |
-A packaging facility, works with ER
-Receives chemical products of cell -Imported and exported through transport vesicles -Exports to organelles or out of cell, through membrane |
|
Cytoplasm and Cytosol
|
-Entire region of cell between nucleus and plasma membrane
-Organelles are suspended in Fluid, called Cytosol, mainly water |
|
Lysosome
-Sack of what? -If cell is damaged, it commits what |
-Digestive sack of enzymes
-Allow for enzymes to digest things in sac, not cell itself. -If the cell is damaged, the lysosome bursts, releasing enzymes to kill cell, a process called Autophagy |
|
Movement of a Cell
Flagella -Where is this seen -How many are there -What motion does it create Cillia -A back and forth motion -More numerous than Flagella |
-The cell uses microtubules, as a monorail system
-The Cillia -A back and forth motion -More numerous than Flagella Flagella -Used to propel sperm cells of humans, and other animals -Whip like motion, often occurying singly |
|
What do plant cells have that animal cells dont.
|
Chloroplast
-Where light energy is captured Cell Wall, -made of cellulose fibers Central Vacuole -It stores organic nutrients -Also contributes to plant growth by absorbing water and causing cells to expand. |
