Lesson 2 Flashcards
cytoplasm
Structure from membrane to nucleus, fills the cell
cytosol
fluid within cytoplasm
function of plasma membrane
encapsulates the cell and regulates molecules that enter and exit
perioxisome function
oxidation
nucleus
holds genetic information and command center,
lysosome
responds to external substances and digests macromolecules
smooth ER
stores lipids and steroids
mitochondrion
produces ATP by breaking down glucose
golgi
processes protein and sorts them for transport
ribosome
performs protein synthesis - central dogma
RER
assists in protein synthesis and transportation
G1 interphase
growth of the cell
S interphase
DNA synthesis
G2
growth and preparation for mitosis
M
Mitosis - cell division
Prophase
chromosomes condense
Metaphase
sister chromatids line up in the center of the cell
Anaphase
chromatids are pulled to opposite ends of the cell
Telophase
Chromosomes decondense and form nuclear envelopes
cytokenesis
cleavage furrow separates daugher cells
