Parts of A Cell, Transport Mechanisms, Membrane Proteins Flashcards
(43 cards)
contains digestive enzymes
lysosome
membrane bound vesicle
peroxisome
site of lipid and amino acid degradation, breaks down hydrogen peroxide
peroxisome
tubelike protein complexes in the cytoplasm
proteasomes
breaks down protein in the cytoplasm
proteasomes
spherical/rod-shaped structure, enclosed with double membrane and cristae
mitochondria
pair of cylindrical organelles, consisting of triplets of parallel microtubules
centrioles
centers of microtubule formation, determine polarity using cell division
centrioles
extensions of plasma membrane containing doubles of parallel microtubules (10 micrometers)
cilia
move materials over the surface of cells
cilia
extension of plasma containing doubles of parallel microtubules (55 micrometers)
flagellum
modifies, packages, and distributes proteins and lipids for secretion
golgi apparatus
propels spermatozoa
flagellum
extension of plasma membrane containing microfilaments
microvilli
increase surface area of plasma membrane for absorption and secretion
microvilli
membrane protein that allow cells to identify other cells or other molecules
marker molecules
anchor cells to other cells (cadherins) or to extracellular molecules (integrins)
attachment proteins
form passageways through the plasma membrane, allowing specific ions or molecules to enter or exit the cell
channel proteins
move ions or molecules across the membrane; binding causes changes in shape
carrier proteins
require ATP molecules to function
ATP-powered pumps
function as binding sites for chemical signals in the extracellular liquid
receptor proteins
catalyze chemical reactions either inside or outside cells
enzymes
always open and are responsible for plasma membrane’s permeability to ions when the plasma membrane is at rest
leak ion channels
channel protein that can be open or closed
gated ion channels
