22
Q

different types of proteins exist with the membrane

23
Q

the plasma membranes of cells are

A

selectively permeable

24
Q

the plasma membrane controls ________ and influences which substances may cross into the cell and at what speed

25
the control center of the cell
nucleus
26
Inside the nucleus DNA is present and expressed as segments called ______
genes
27
What genes express to ___________
produce proteins
28
surrounding the nucleus is another membrane called
the nuclear envelope
29
the nucleus stores genetic information in the form of
chromosomes
30
When DNA is transferred to _______ it becomes accessible
RNA
31
The cell has a variety of seperate membrane bound compartments called
organelles
32
Many organelles surrounded by membrane are part of the
endomembrane system
33
The endomembrane system includes
- endoplasmic reticulum - Golgi apparatus - Lysosomes and Vacuoles
34
The endoplasmic reticulum is composed of two distinct components
- rough ER | - smooth ER
35
what form on the membrane of the rough ER that give the ER its rough appearance
Ribosomes
36
the main function of the rough ER are to produce
protein precursors | new membrane molecules
37
The smooth ER has no ribosomes on its surface, it produces
lipids steriods, and hormones
38
Protein precursor molecules are packaged and transported in
vesicles
39
the ________ receives precursors from the Er then refines, stores, and repackages proteins so they can be sent to areas inside and outside the cell where they can function
golgi apparatus
40
is a type of vesicle containing digestive enzymes. They fuse vacuoles to digest food particles as well as damage organelles inside the cell
lysosomes
41
membrane sacs
vacuoles
42
the ___________ and ___________ are inter conncted membrane bound organelles linked as a protein making conyor belt
golgi and ER
43
What are the two types of vacuoles
vacuoles of protists and the central vacuoles of plants
44
Plants have membrane bound organelles called
chloroplast
45
chloroplast conduct
photosynethesis in plants
46
Both plants and animals have ___________ which conduct cellular energy processes
mitocondria
47
the internal network of fibers called the _________________ helps the cell maintain its shape, structure, and anchor other organelles
cytoskeleton
48
The cytoskelliton is made of
micro filaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules
49
________ are made from an arrangment of microtubials
cilia and flagella
50
use whip like beats to propel a cell through an enviroment
flagella
51
are short types of flagella that are coordinated and provide propulsion in wavelike back and forth movements
cilia
52
the human windpipe is lined with
cilia which bring up polluatants
