Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum |
Phospholipids and steroid synthesis Carbohydrate metabolism Detoxification Muscle contraction (calcium reservoir) |
|
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum |
Protein Synthesis Synthesis of membrane parts Secretory proteins |
|
Golgi Apparatus/body |
Poles Cis face- receives vesicles from ER Trans face- ships vesicles to other places in the cell Alters glycoproteins, manufactures carbohydrates. Molecular ID tags (shipping labels) |
|
Vesicles |
Mainly in animal cells Smaller than vacuoles Transport Bud off from ER, golgi, plasma membraneq |
|
Vacuoles |
Mainly in plants Larger than vesicles Central- Tonoplast, storage, waste disposal (similar to lysosomes in animals), pigment storage, toxin storage (poison ivy) Food vacuoles store starch |
|
Mitochondria |
Own ribosomes and DNA 2 membranes, intermembrane space, matrix |
|
Chloroplasts |
2 membranes, intermembrane space, stroma, thylakoids, thylakoid membrane, thylakoid space, grana |
|
Peroxisomes |
-Break down substances by first transferring H to water (H2O2), then catalase breaks down H2O2 -Metabolize Fa's, detoxification -In plants, convert FA's to sugars in seedings, keep plant nourished until it can photosynthesize |
|
Lysosomes |
-Animals only (vacuoles in plants) -Phagocytosis, recycling, autophagy (cell suicide) |
|
Cytoskeleton |
-Mechanical support, shape, anchors organelles, motility -Microtubules, monorails, shape and support, spindle apparatus, centrioles, basal bodies, flagella, cilia -Microfilaments, muscle contraction, cleavage furrow, pseudopia -Intermediate, tension bearing, more permanent, hold organelles in place |
