Transport of material into cells:
|
phagocytosis: engulf large particles, form phagosomes
- pinocytosis: engulf soluble material in a non-specific fashion - receptor mediated endocytosis: specific, involving coated pits lined with clatherin - all can fuse with primary lysosomes. - Residual body can be exocytosed or form lipofuscin |

Lysosomes
|
membrane bound
- contain acid hydrolases, pH 5.0 - degrade just about everything - 2 functions o degrade substance taken in by cell o degrade worn out organelles - new lysosomes: primary lysosomes - lysosomes digesting: secondary lysosomes - lysosomes unable to completedigestion: residual bodies - autophagy: consumption of self |

Mitochondria
|
0.5-1.0 wide x 5-10 um long
- ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation - Double unit membrane (7 um) separated by Intramembranous space - Number of mitochondria related to energy requirements - Cristae increase inner membrane surface area o Shelf like o Finger like…more area o Covered with elementary particles: connect electron transport to phosphorylation - “cytosol” of mitochondrion called matrix o matrix granules divalent cation store o contains both RNA and DNA and ribosome -duplicate by fission |
