Types of cells on earth
Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
Name the domains on Prokaryotes cells?
1. Bacteria
2. Archea
name Domains for Eukaryotes cells?
1. Animals
2. Plants
3. Protists
4. fungi
All cells have ?
Cytoplasm
cell memebranes
Differences bt Prokaryotes cells and Eukaryotes cells?
1. Prokaryotes
*have no nucleus
* have no other membrane enclosed organelles

2. Eukaryotes
*Do nave a nucleus and numerous organelles
Plants and Animals have most of the same organelles except:
Plants have but Animals dont:
*Cell walls
*Chloroplasts
*Central Vacuole

*membrane enclosed organelles
*Plasmodesmata
Animals cells have that plants don't?
*Lysosomes
*Centrosomes (with centrioles)
*Flagella (but present in some plant sperm).
The plants have membrane-enclosed organelles called?
Plastids
Most important Plastids is?
The most important one is Chloroplast; which carries out photosynthesis.
Nucleus
contains most of the genes in the eukaryotic cell (some genes are located in mitochondria and chloroplasts)
Nuclear envelope
encloses the nucleus separating its contents from the cytoplasm. IT is double membrane
Pore Complex
Lines each pore of the nuclear membrane, playing an important role in regulating the entry and exit of most proteins and RNA and large complexes of macromolecules.
Nuclear Lamina
a netlike array of proteins filaments that maintains the shape of the nucleus by mechanically supporting the nuclear envelope
Chromosomes
structures that carry the genetic information. Each Chromosome is made up of a material called CHROMATIN
Chromatin
a complex of protein and DNA
How many chromosomes do human have?
46 chromosomes the exceptions are the sex cells (egg and sperm)which have only 23 chromosomes.
Nucleolus
a round structure visible in the nondividing nucleus,synthesizes and assembles ribosomes (ribosomal RNA)(rRNA)is made here by the instructions of the DNA.
Also, pr imported from the cytoplasm are assembled with rRNA into large and small ribosomal subunits. In cytoplams can be assmble as a ribosome.
Ribosomes
are complexes made of ribosomal RNA and protein, are the cellular componetns that carry out protein sytnthesis
Ribosomes are located in two places in the cell?
1. Cytosol (free ribosomes)
2. Endoplasmic reticulum or nuclear pores (bound ribosomes)
Endomembrane system includes:
1. Nuclear envelope
2. endoplasmic reticulum
3. Golgi apparatus
4. Lysosomes
5. vacuoles
6. Plasma membrane
Endoplastic reticulum (ER)
is the most extensive network of membranes that it accounts for more than half the total membrane in many eukaryotic cells. It Consist of a network of membranous tubules and sacs called cisternae. Two kids of them, Rough and Smooth.
Function of the Smooth ER
Serves diveres fuctions in different cells:
*It enzymes are involved in phospholipid, steroid, and sex hormone sythesis
*Metabolism of carbohydrates
*detoxification of drugs and poisons.
*storage and release of calcium ions during muscle contraction
How does Barbitureats, alcohol, and other drugs affect smooth ER?
It increases a live cell's production of smooth ER, leading to an increased tolerance and thus reduced effectiveness for these and other drugs.
Functions of Rough ER
*aids in synthesis of secretory and or other proteins from bounded ribosomes.
*adds carbohydrate to glycoproteins
*produce new membrane
Glycoprotein?
proteins that have a carbohydrate attached to it
Golgi Apparatus
"shipping and receiving Center"
*consist of a stack of falttened membranous sacs. Vesicles that bud from the ER join to the cis face of the Golgi, adding to it their contents and membrane.
*products that travel through the Golgi are usually modified or refined as they move from one cisterna to the next.
*some polysaccharides are manufacture here
*the products are sorted into vesicles, which pinch off from the trans face of the Golgi.
Lysosomes
"Digestive Compartments"
*are a membrane-enclosed sacs of hydrolytic enzymes used by the cell to digest macromolecules. The cell can maintain an acidic pH for these enzymes and also protest itself from unwated digestion by containing hydrolitc enzymes within lysosomes.
phagocytosis
eat by engulfing smaller organisms or other food particles
