A

It is a selective barrier (selective permeability ) controls what goes in and out of the cell and has two layers

Q

What is cytoplasm?

A

Cyto -cell
Plasm-Material
It is a semi fluid more like gel and flows slowly it is the pace where most chemical reactions happens it stores sugars such glycogen and melanin

Q

what is mitochondria?

A

Mitochondria is shaped like a sausage, It’s is the power house of the cell. It is used for aerobic respiration which where chemical energy is available in the cell

Q

What are ribosomes?

A

Ribosomes can be found in small clusters of the cytoplasm where they make proteins in he cell. They can also be found on the outer surface of the nuclear envelope and the rough endoplasmic material.

Q

What is a smooth and rough endoplasmic reticular?

A

The endoplasmic reticular is a extensive series of interconnecting membranous canals in the cytoplasm.

Smooth ER-It synthesis lipid and steroid hormones
Rough ER-studded ribosomes and the site of protein synthesis

Q

What are centrioles?

A

Every animal like cell has two organelles called centrioles. centrioles are small set of microtubes arranged in a specific way. They are there to help cells divide such as mitosis or meiosis

Q

Nuclear envelope?

A

A membrane similar to the plasma membrane but with tiny pores so that substances can pass between it and the cytoplasm surrounds the nucleus

Q

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum?

A

Synthesis lipids and steroid hormones. Some of the lipids are used to replace and repair the plasma membrane of organelles

17
Q

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

A

Studded with ribosomes. The site of protein synthesis

18
Q

What is does Ribosomes Contains

A

Ribosomes contain tiny granules of ribonucleic acid(RNA)

19
Q

What are the basic functions of a cell

A

1) Respiration
2) Excretion
3) Growth
4) Irritability

20
Q

What does the plasma membrane consist of?

A

It consists of phospholipids with proteins and sugars embedded in them
