Q

Why can mitochondria produce by cell division?

A

They have mitochondrial DNA

20
Q

Ribosomes
(made of RNA and protein)

A

Build proteins
(float or attached to ER)

21
Q

Endoplasmic Reticulum

A

Tubes and sacs (cisternae) that transport molecules around the cell

22
Q

Rough ER

A

Covered in ribosomes
Proteins are transferred in or out of cell membrane

23
Q

Smooth ER

A

Builds lipids (cholesteral)

24
Q

Golgi Apparatus

A

Membranous sacs recieve vesicles (transportation for proteins/lipids) and lables them with carbs

25
Lysosomes
Digestivve enzymes digest old organelles by autophagy or dysfunctioning cells by autolysis
26
Peroxisomes
Neutralize damaging oxyfen ions (radicals), detoxify drugs, produces hydrogen peroxide during the process
27
Glyoxysomes break down fats in plant seeds for energy
Another vesicle
28
Endosomes
formed from pockets in membraes
29
Food vacuoles
Store nutrients
30
Contractile vacuoles
rid excess water
31
Protein synthesis
Ribosomes on rough ER, transported in vesicles to Golgi Apparatus, modified and repacked, released from vesicles, (remaining vesicles are lysosomes or peroxisomes)
32
Cytoskeleton
Tubes and filaments as roadways and structure
33
Microtubules
Hollow tubes of tubulin keep organelles in place, keep shape, guide molecules
34
Intermediate Filaments
Rods hold organelles in place
35
Cilia and Flagella
Hair-like stuctures on cells for movement (made of 9 microtubules and 2 central tubules
36
Centrioles
Two short cylinders of microtubules that organize microtubules of the cytoskeleton during cell division in animal cells
37
Plant cells have additional...
Cell walls, large central vacuoles, and plastidsC
38
Cell wall
Cellulose inside proteins and carbs that form boxes around cell (has pores)
39
Primary and secondary wall
Primary wall built by enzymes, secondary wall grows between mebrane and primary wall; can't expand
40
Central Vacuole
stores water, enzymes, wastes Provides a lot of structure; wilts without water
41
Other vacuoles (plant cell)
Store toxic materials or pigments
42
Plastids
Surrounded by double membrane and has own DNA
43
Chloroplasts (cell division)
Make carbs from light energy with H2O and CO2 using chlorophyll inside thylakoids (membranous sacs)
44
Endosymbiosis
Prokaryotic cells incorporated in eukaryotic cells a long time ago
45
Chromoplasts
Contain pigments; sometimes helps with photosynthesis
