Eukaryotic cells
Complex cells with nucleus and organelles
All fungi plants and animals
3 main parts of a cell include...
Plasma membrane (plasmalema)
Cytoplam
Nucleus
Chromosomes
Consists of a single molecule of DNA
Prokaryotic cells
Simple cells with no nucleus
Unicellular bacteria
What are common molecules that can/cannot pass through membrane freely
Can= H2O, CO2, O2
Cannot = ions and glucose (certain polar substances)
Ligands
Molecules that bind with a receptor
Exocytosis
Secreting substances outside of cells using vesicular transport
Neurotransmitters
Endocytosis
Process of moving substances into cells
I. E. Phagocytosis
Lipid bilayer consists of
Phospholipids, cholesterol and glycolipids
Integral vs Transmembrane proteins
Integral Protiens extend into or through the bilayer

Transmembrane proteins is a type of integral protein. Transmembrane Protiens open to both sides

Most integral proteins are transmembrane proteins
Peripheral proteins
Attaches to inner/outer surface but doesn't extend through membrane
Glycoprotein
Membrane proteins that contain a carbohydrate group. Helps with stabilization and cell identification
Glycocalyx; made up off...
A sugar coating that sidings entire membrane.

Made up of carbohydrate portions of glycoprotein and glycolipid
Ion channels
Allows passage of specific ions

Just opened and closes like a gate
Type of membrane protein
Carrier Proteins
Carries specific substances by changing its shape
Receptor proteins
Recognizes specific ligands and alters cells function in some way.
Enzymes
Catalyzes reactions inside or outside of cells
Linker membrane proteins
Anchors filaments inside and outside membrane, provides structural stability and shape.

May link 2 cross together too
Selective permeability
Cell membrane allows small, neutrally-charged, lipid-soluble, substances to pass. With the exception of water.
List passive processes
Diffusion of salutes, Diffusion of solvents (osmosis), facilitated diffusion
Facilitated diffusion plus examples
Requires a specific channel but passive because it doesn't differently use energy

Carrier mediated (changes shape)
Channel mediated (opens and closes like a gate)
Diffusion
Passive spread of particles through random motion

High covenant to low concentration
2 ways that osmosis can occur are...
Through lipid bilayer

*through aquaporins (integral membrane protein)
Osmotic pressure
Amount of pressure you need to apply to get back to starting conditions to reverse the actions of equilibrium.

Osmotic pressure predicts direction of diffusion
Tonisity
Conservation of salt solution in blood an elsewhere
What occurs to RBC in a hypertonic condition ?
Crenation = movement of water moving out of cell
What occurs to a RBC in a hypotonic solution?
Hemolysis = inward movement of water resulting in the EXPLOSION of the cell!
What pump is found in all cells?
The sodium-potassium pump... Duh
Antiporters vs symporters
Antiporters carries two substances across the membrane but in opposite directions

Symporters carries two substances in he same direction

*both examples of secondary active transport

Secondary active transport
Indirectly used energy obtained from hydrolysis of ATP

Uses energy stored in an ionic concentration
Transcytosis
Combination of endocytosis and exocytosis
Moves a substance into, across, and out of a cell
Phagocytosis
Pseudopods, phagosome , fusion of lysosome , digestion, risidual
Cytosol
Intracellular fluid. Surrounding organelles. Part of cytoplasm; excluding the organelles.
Cytoskeleton
Network of protein fibers that provides structural support throughout the cytosol .
Cytoskeleton types (protein filaments)
Microfilaments (outside)
Intermediate filaments (inside)
Microtubules (in nucleus)
Centrosomes
Located near nucleus
Contains 2 centrioles and a pericentriolar membrane
Cillia
Short, hairlike , used to move fluids along cell surface
Flagella
Longer than cilia, moves entire cell, only example = sperms tehe
Ribosomes
Core of protein synthesis

Composed of large and smaller subunits
Endoplasmic reticulum
Network of membranes

Rough ER = connects to nuclear envelope. Studded with ribosome. Produces various proteins

Smooth ER= no ribosomes, synthesizes fatty acids and steroids. Also detoxifies certain drugs


2 parts
Golgi complex
Modified, sorts, and packages packages proteins for transport

Consists of 3-20 flattened sacs called cesteranes
Lysosomes
Vesicles that contain powerful digestive enzymes
Peroxisomes
Smaller than detoxifies certain toxins such as alcohol
Proteasomes
Destroys unneeded/damaged/faulty proteins
Mitochondria
Generates ATP, abundant in physiologically active cells (muscles, kidneys)
Cristae
Folds in mitochondria
Nuclear envelope
A double membrane surrounding nucleus
Composition of chromosomes
Transcription vs translation
Transcription occurs in the nucleus, RNA polymerase rides along DNA to produce mRNA that corresponds to the genes sequences of DNA (thymine becomes uracil)

Translation occurs in cytoplasm. Ribosomal subunits form around mRNA, tRNA attaches to ribosome at P site then A site based on the anticodon sequence it carries. The tRNA brings an amino acid and a polypeptide bond forms between the two via dehydration synthesis. The tRNA at the p site detaches and cycle repeates till stop codon it reached and polypeptide chain is formed.
Gene
Sequence of nuclotide
Human somatic cells contain how many pairs of chromosomes?
23 pairs
Not total
Homologous chromosomes
2 chromosomes that make up each pair.
(X)
Diploids vs haploids
Haploids have half the number of chromosomes than diploids... (23 vs 46)

Diploids have 2 complete sets while Haploids contain only 1
Example of haploids cells
Sex cells
Interphase
Cell spends most of its time in this phase

Cell replicates it's DNA

Consists of three phases
G1 vs S vs G2 phases
G1= duplication of organelles
S= Synthesis of DNA (replicated)

G2= more cell growth
Prophase
Chromatin fibers change to chromosomes
Nuclear envelope disappears and centrioles start to move to opposite ends
Metaphase
Microtubules align the centromeres of the chromatid pairs @ metaphase plate

*not right 2, just the one on left
Anaphase
Chromatid pairs split @ centromeres and moves to opposite poles of the cell

Characterized by v shape of chromatids

Cytokenisis starts in late anaphase along with the formation of the cleavage furrow

Chromatids are now called chromosomes

*both models on right
Telophase
2 identical nuclei are formed around the the sets of chromosomes (now in their chromatin form )

*last model shows two daughter cells, telephone is models on left
Mitosis vs meiosis
Meiosis is for sex cells (gametes)

MiTOEsis is for cells in ur toes! Lol diploids
Fertalization
Union of 2 gametes

Restores number of chromosomes to 46
Meiosis 1
Begins with a diploid cellars ends with 2 cells having haploids number of chromosomes

Undergoes PMAT
Meiosis 2
Each of the 2 haploid cells divide to 4 haploid gametes. 4 gametes are genetically different than original diploid starting cell because of genetic recombination
