    Camillo Golgi, an Italian scientist was the first to discover it and named it after himself. They are membrane bound organelles which are shaped like a sack. The Golgi is made up of stacks of membrane-bound structures. At each end of the stack there is a face which helps with the function of the Golgi. One end of the stack is called cis face and the other end is called tans face. The cis face controls what…

    the vesicles holding the protein bud from the rough endoplasmic reticulum move too nearby Golgi apparatus. Then the vesicles from the rough endoplasmic reticulum join at one end, adding their proteins to the first flattened vesicle. Then the small vesicle buds from this structure move the proteins to the next layer of the stack. This continues until the protein is on the opposite end of then Golgi apparatus. After this the vesicles move to the plasma membrane and attach to the membrane and then…

    The cell has many parts. Those parts include the cell membrane, cytoplasm, nuclear membrane, nucleus, ribosomes, mitochondria, small vacuoles, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and the golgi apparatus. We compared all of these organelles to a plastic bag, a toy animal, a large toy bear head, a highlighter, a noise maker, a medicine cup, a candle, a straw, and a box. To begin, a cell membrane controls movement in and out of the cell. It is a thin flexible layer that also supports and…

    The second and third ones are in the left top corner next to each other. There is the presence of the Golgi apparatus. The Golgi apparatus is found in the cytoplasm (they are about two of them). The Golgi apparatus is responsible for making the proteins which are later transported by vesicles to the plasma membrane. There are also ribosomes present. The ribosomes synthesize protein, releasing them to work…

    Nucleus Essay

    • 1677 Words
    • 7 Pages

    Nucleus The Nucleus is an example of a command centre found inside a eukaryotic cell; it’s usually the most prominent organelle, yet it occupies only 10% of the total volume of the cell. If this cell did not have a Nucleus, it would be defined as a prokaryote cell, however if the Nucleus was damaged and not repaired, the cell would simply die. The cell nucleus is enclosed within a double membrane (contains an Inner and Outer Nuclear Membrane) called the Nuclear Envelope, which separates the…

    which contains various organelles. Both plant and animal cells have a cell membrane that surrounds. The different types of cells contain many of the same organelles such as ribosomes, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vacuoles, and the mitochondria. Plant and animal cells are also very different, I will name four. The first one is that plants are surrounded by a cell wall and cell membrane while animal cells have only a cell membrane to…

    throughout the cell. They are created by the rough endoplasmic reticulum, sent to the Golgi apparatus and then finally become lysosomes. Their main function is to float around the cell and when the cell eats or consumes energy, the lysosomes burst into action to consume the energy. Even though lysosomes jobs are to break down other energy and organelles in the cell, it doesn't break down the cell's membrane. The Golgi apparatus looks similar to the rough ER yet they are two completely different…

    Smooth E.R. are a series of interconnected tubes that connect from the nuclear envelope to the golgi apparatus, they send substances to the golgi apparatus, which then package and send them to other areas of the cell. Smooth E.R. also produce and metabolizes lipids, as well as producing steroid hormones, especially in the adrenal cortex and the endocrine glands. Smooth E.R. also play a large role in detoxifying organic chemicals, especially in the liver, converting them into substances that are…

    and in combination with the cell membrane, provide the cell the structure. The mitochondria provide the cell with power while the vacuoles stores nutrients for the cell. There are more organelles such as the ribosomes, lysosomes, centrioles, Golgi apparatus, peroxisomes and the cilia and flagella that all do certain jobs for the cell and require the cell to function. These parts or organelles may not be living, but they are still important for every living…

    Chloroplast (Plant cells only) - Small oval structure containing chlorophyll giving the chloroplast a green pigment. Chloroplast uses the sun’s energy to create food for the plant, this is known as photosynthesis. Cell wall (Plant cells only) - Provides structure and protection to the cell in the form of an outer layer. This organelle lets H2O, CO2, and O2 pass through it. One large vacuole (Plant cells only) - Large sac filled with fluids. The vacuole in a plant cell stores, large amounts…
