rRNA

A

rhibosomal

18
Q

Difference between cytoplasm and cytosol?

A

Cytoplasm contains organelles, cytosol is just the fluid

19
Q

Types of nonbound organelles

A

Microfilaments, Intermediate filaments, microtubules

20
Q

ER and its two functions

A

Endoplasmic Riticulum, rough ER has rhibosomes, smooth ER creates hormones

21
Q

Can free rhibosomes exocytose?

22
Q

What do mitochondria do?

A

They create ATP

23
Q

What does the Golgi complex do?

A

It’s the last step for readying proteins.

24
Q

What do lysosomes do?

A

Digest acidic substances

25
What do peroxosomes do?
They exist primarily in the kidney and liver, and they detoxify
26
What do cilia do?
They provide movement
