Science Assignment: Q2 Part: Acrosome Function: The acrosome is the part on the head of the sperm. It is located on the tip and it is made of chemicals. The function of the acrosome is to dissolve the membrane of the egg so the sperm can fertilize it.…
5. Ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis, in other words they create proteins. 6. mRNA attaches one end to a ribosome, and through codons, tRNA brings in amino acids and attaches them together to form a specific protein polymer. Codons code for amino acids, and are "triplets" of code.…
b-The nucleus is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells. Inside its fully-enclosed nuclear membrane, it contains the majority of the cell's genetic material. This material is organized as DNA molecules, along with a variety of proteins, to form chromosomes. The main function of the cell nucleus is to control gene expression and mediate the replication of DNA during the cell cycle.…
Its size is 0.025 µm in diameter. 5) Nucleus: - Contains the cell’s genetic material (DNA) and controls all the cell’s processes. - Its size is 5-10 µm in…
ATP allows cells to conserve and use the energy released in metabolism. Nitrogen is also a component of DNA. DNA allows cells to grow…
Lysosomes are small organelles that break down food particles and worn-out cell parts. Most of the cell’s energy is produced in the mitochondria. Cytoplasm is gel-like fluid which many of the organelles are found. Ribosomes function as factories to produce proteins which can either be attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or float in the cytoplasm. The golgi apparatus receives materials from the endoplasmic reticulum and send them to other parts of the cell…

Nucleus the central and most important part of an object, movement, or group, forming the basis for its activity and growth.…
Cells rely on ribosomes when they need to produce more protein. They are found in all living cells and they host protein synthesis. They can occur as free particles in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and also attaches to the membranes of endoplasmic reticulum in eukaryotic cells. When it comes to size, ribosomes are roughly spherical and usually measure 200 angstroms in diameter. To get an idea of how small this is, imagine trying to pick one little speck of dirt in your yard.…
Each organelle is significant to its cell, which are the building blocks of life. At the center of almost every cell is a dense organelle called the Nucleus. It contains the cell's genetic material and usually has a double membrane. The double membrane that protects the nucleus is similar to the thin single membrane made up of proteins and lipids.…
kidney failure) Rarity: Not many alternatives for burn victim treatment (assumption based on the case’s voice); large molecule research is still new and rare, tough to get into. Imitability: Not very imitable, especially if Nucleon can gain strong patent protection. Also, the slow development time means that even if another firm could mimic a similar drug, it would take time. Organization: Nucleon is currently not organized to begin trials and manufacturing of this drug.…
These go about as a boundary to keep DNA inside the core where interpretation happens. The RNA produced amid interpretation is transported out through atomic pores. Numerous proteins are integrated at the Endoplasmic reticulum. The ribosomes tie to the ER (a film bound organelle) and make an interpretation of the RNA message into protein that either navigates the layer (like a protein channel does) or is inside the ER in a vesicle (for solvent proteins that are emitted by the cell by exocytosis... like development elements and hormone proteins) (Meiner,…
To understand how homeostatic mechanism regulates the human body’s temperature, we must know and understand the organization of the human body and how it relates to homeostasis mechanism adapting to various conditions. It will be explained how the stimulus, receptors, integrator, effector, and the different tissues types play a role in how the human body responds to change in temperature. The human body is complex and consists of several levels of organization. The levels of organization within the human body are the chemical, cellular, tissue, and system level, which is the highest level in our body. Homeostasis is retained by a series of control mechanisms and some functioning within the organ or tissue level.…
Introduction: - Mitochondria is a double membrane organelle that is found in all eukaryotic organism. There are some evidences that proves that some of the eukaryotic organism lack this organelle but there is no true evidence which says that this specific organism completely lacks mitochondria. Mitochondria is also known as a power house of the living body cell. It stores energies in the cell and releases when its needed. Every organelle in Mitochondria have their own specific roles which helps in storing energy (See Figure 1 for details).…
Medical Aspect of Nuclear Chemistry Nuclear chemistry is a growing subfield of chemistry. Although it has also has been used for the destruction of humanity in history this paper discuss on how it has been helpful through medical aspects. Nuclear chemistry is related with radioactivity, nuclear processes, and properties. In order to build a nuclear process, radioactive elements are combined with nuclear reactors.…
are covered with ribosomes which create proteins, the proteins are then carried by the cisternae within the endoplasmic reticulum to their place within the cell. While the ribosomes in this case are attatched to the endoplasmic reticulum, this is not their only position, they can also be found freely within the cell cytoplasm (the area within the cell that contains the cell organelles) The S.E.R is in charge of storing, and secreting non-protein products such as carbohydrates and lipids etc. (kent, 2000,…
