Structure/function Of Cytoplasmic Organelles

Front 1

Ribosomes

Back 1

Compoased of RNA and PROTEIN. Actual sites of PROTEIN SYNTHESIS. Floating free/attached to a membraneous structure(the rough er) in the cytoplasm

Front 2

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)

Back 2

Tubules that extends throughout the cytoplasm.

1.) Rough ER is studded with ribosomes (tubules of the rough ER provide an area for storageand transport of the proteins made on the ribosomes to other cell areas)
2.) SMOOTH ER
NO FUNCTION IN PROTEIN SYNTHESIS (it's a site of steroid and lipid synthesis, lipid metabolism, and drug detoxification)

Front 3

Golgi Apparatus

Back 3

Stack of FLATTENED SACKS. Found close to the NUCLEUS. Plays a role in packaging proteins for export from the cell into the plasma membrance and in packaging LYSOSOMAL ENZYMES

Front 4

Lysosomes

Back 4

Various-sized membraneous sacs containing digestive enzymes (acid hydrolases); function to digest worn out cell organelles and foreign substances that enter the cell; have the capacity of total cell destruction if ruptured

Front 5

Peroxisomes

Back 5

SMALL LYSOSOME-LIKE membraneous sacs containing OXIDASE enzymes that DETOXIFY ALCOHO, HYDROGEN PEROXIDE

Front 6

Mitochondria

Back 6

PROVIDES CELLULAR ENERGY (ATP)
ROD-SHAPED W/ A DOUBLE MEMBRANE WALL

Front 7

Centrioles

Back 7

PAIRED, CYLINDRICAL BODIES lie at RIGHT ANGLES. CLOSE TO THE NUCLEUS.
FUNCTION:
directs the formation of the mmitotic spindle during cell division; form the bases of cilia and flagella

Front 8

Cytoskeletal

Back 8

Provides cellular support.
FUNCTION=INTRACELLULAR TRANSPORT

Front 9

Cytoskeletal--mircrofilaments

Back 9

important in cell mobility(particularly in muscle cells)

Front 10

Cyto--Intermediate filaments

Back 10

stable elements composed of a variety of proteins and resist mechanical forces acting on cells

Front 11

Cyto--Microtubules

Back 11

Form the internal structure of the centrioles and help determine CELL SHAPE
