Cell organelles
Mitochondria Lysosomes Golgi bodies Endoplasmic Reticulum Vacuoles Plastids
19
ATP
ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) Energy currency
20
how many ATP
36 ATP 6^2 anaerobic respiration yields 2 ATP for every molecule of glucose
21
Cis face Trans face
towards-nucleus towards- plasma membrane
21
Sucidal bag of the cell
Lysosomes (Digestive)
21
Cis face Trans face in ?
Golgi bodies
22
Post office of the Cell
Golgi bodies
22
Rough ER Smooth ER makes?
Rough ER: makes proteins, ribosomes present Smooth ER: synthesis of fats and lipids, ribosomes absent
22
___ forms lysosomes
Golgi bodies
22
Convex - forming face ? Concave - maturing face ?
Cis face Trans face
23
Detox, Manufacturing in
Endoplasmic Reticulum
24
Vacuoles in animals
Small, temporary stores glucose, glycogen, protein
24
Vacuoles - in plants
Large, distinct, Permanent
25
kitchen of a cell
Plastids Only in plant cell · Has its own DNA & Ribosomes
26
Plastids types
Chloroplasts - stores chloropyll pigment (Mg metal) Chromoplasts - stores colour pigment Leucoplasts - stores starch oil protein
27
Chloroplasts stores
stores chlorophyll pigment
28
Chromoplasts stores
stores colour pigment
29
Leucoplasts stores
Stores starch, oil and protein granules
30
Metal in Chlorophyll
Magnesium (Mg)
31
Amyloplasts synthesize Elaioplasts Aleuroplast
Amyloplasts synthesize - starch Elaioplasts synthesize - Oil Aleuroplast synthesize - Protein
32
Tomatoes pigment
Lycopene
33
Carrot pigment
carotenoids
34
Cell division phases
G1 - Growth S -DNA synthesis G2 - Growth & preparation for mitosis M - Mitosis
35
Mitosis occurs in Meiosis occurs in
Somatic cells ( not involve sex) Germ cells (involve sex)
36
Mitosis
Nucleus divides once diploid (2), 2 daughter cells 2 set of chromosomes
37
Meiosis
Nucleus divides twice haploid (1), 4 daughter cells 1 set of chromosomes
38
Prokaryotic cell Eukaryotic cell
e.g. - bacteria, cynobacria, mycoplasma e.g. - Plant, Animal
39
DNA RNA
DNA RNA Adenine Adenine Guanine Guanine Thymine* Uracil* Cytosine Cytosine AGTC AGUC
40
That separates the internal environment of the cell from the extracellular fluid
Plasma membrane
41
Group of cells --> ___
Group of cells --> Tissue --> Organ ---> Organ system
42
Cytoplasm
Substance inside the cell between plasma membrane & nuclear envelope Cytosol - fluid part of cytoplasm
43
Protein synthesis takes place in
Ribosomes
44
Mitoplast
Mitochondria whithout outer membrane
45
In animal cells, Generally small and help separate waste products in cell
Vacuole
46
No nucleus, lack membrane
Prokaryotic cell Eukaryotic cell - nucleus ,membrane present
47
Central Dogma of molecular biology
