3.energy storage
4.energy metabolism
5. structural &transport functions
1.nucleus
2.endomembrane system
3.lipid& polysaccharide granules
4. chloroplast and mitochondria
5.cytoskeleton and plasmamembrane
plasma membrane
continuous,selectively permeable membrane that surrounds the fluid and other structures of a cell
allows cell to maintain constant internal environment.
Nucleus
contains most of DNA required for function of the cell. Possesses the instructions for a cell to differentiate into different cell types
largest organelle
nuclear membrane
double-folded plasma membrane bounded on inside by nuclear lamina
nuclear lamina
network of protein fibers
nuclear pores
where material passes in between cytoplasm and nucleus
complex made up of 8 protein granules arranged in an octagon
nucleolus
consists of ribosomes and RNA. Site of ribosome synthesis
well developed in cells with lots of protein synthesis
chromatin
DNA and associated particles
Associated particles: histones and regulatory proteins that help control gene expression.
Endoplasmic reticulum
important for protein synthesis
made up of smooth and rough ER
Cisternae
folded series of tubles in ER
lumen
Internal compartment of ER. has different ion and protein concentration than the rest of the cell
called cisternal space
What are properties of ER and its membrane?
membrane surface area> plasma membrane (much of the membrane of cell)
15% of entire fluid volume of cell in ER
Ribosome
site of protein synthesis.
two parts large and small subunit
location of ribosomes
1. free in cytoplasm
2.bound to ER
3.mitochrondria and chloroplasts
1.synthesize cytoplasmic soluble proteins
2. synthesize protein insoluble
smooth endoplasmic in liver
site of synthesis of glycogen, cholesterol, and steroid
site of drug detoxification
Golgi apparatus
responsible for production and functional maturation of proteins and some polysaccharides
Similar in structure to smooth ER with stacked discs (cisternae)
Process of Golgi apparatus
transport vesicles from rough ER fuse at "cis" face. It leaves at "trans" face.
proteins travel and are modified until they become the final product that is released by secretion
Where newly synthesized proteins go
1.released outside of the cell
2.inserted into membrane
3.remain in cytoplasm as soluble proteins
4. used to maintain organelle function either as part of an organelles structure or inside the organelle
lysosomes
digest macromolecules, organelles, and food particles
have an acidic environment of pH 5.
