Destinations Flashcards
haha its like a destination wedding but bchm instead- wait thats acc kind of sad lol (7 cards)
What is synthesized in the nucleus?
DNA and RNA
The nucleus is the site for genetic material synthesis.
Which metabolic processes occur in the cytosol?
Glycolysis, pentose phosphate pathway, fatty acid synthesis, protein synthesis
These processes are crucial for energy production and biosynthesis.
What processes take place in the mitochondria?
TCA cycle, ETC, ATP synthesis, beta-oxidation of lipids
Mitochondria are known as the powerhouses of the cell.
What is the function of proteasomes?
Degrade damaged proteins into amino acids
This occurs primarily in the cytosol.
What is the role of the Golgi Apparatus?
Glycosylation of proteins
The Golgi apparatus modifies and sorts proteins for secretion.
What is synthesized in the Endoplasmic Reticulum?
Protein and fatty acid synthesis
The ER is involved in the synthesis of biomolecules.
What does the lysosome degrade?
Large structures into building blocks (e.g., damaged organelles, nucleic acids)
This includes the degradation of proteins into amino acids and nucleotides.
