33
Panoramic view: Have most of the same organelles
plant and animal cells
34
in animal cells but not plant cells:
Lysosomes, Centrioles, Flagella ( in some plant sperm)
35
in plant cells but not animal cells:
Chloroplasts, central vacuole and tonoplast, cell wall, Plasmodesmata
36
plant cell: genetic library of the cell; carried out by the ribosomes
Nucleus
37
plant cell: encloses the nucleus, separating its contents from the cytoplasm
the nuclear envelope
38
what are the organelles containing DNA?
nucleus, mitochondria and chloroplasts.
39
Evolution of eukaryotic cells
Endosymbiosis theory
40
plant cell: carry out protein synthesis
Ribosomes
41
plant cell: accounts for more than half the total membrane in man eukaryotic cells; biosynthetic factory
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
42
Two distinct regions of ER
Smooth ER (lacks ribosomes) and Rough ER (contains ribosomes)
43
Synthesizes lipids, metabolizes carbohydrates, stores calcium, detoxifies poison
smooth ER
44
has bound ribosomes, produces proteins and membranes, which are distributed by transport vesicles
rough ER
45
plant cell: shipping and receiving center
gogli apparatus
46
consists of flattened membranous sacs called:
cisternae
47
diverse maintenance compartments
Vacuoles
48
are formed by phagocytosis
Food vacuoles
49
Pump excess water out of protist cells
Contractile vacuoles
50
are found in plant cells; hold reserves of important organic compounds and water
Central vacuoles
51
are the sites of cellular respiration; chemical energy conversion
mitochondria
52
are the sites of photosynthesis
chloroplasts
53
m____and c_____ change energy from one form to another
mitochondria and chloroplasts
54
mitochondria enclosed by two membrane:
a. smooth outer membrane b. inner membrane folded into cristae
55
capture of light energy; contains chlorophyll; are found in leaves and other green organs of plants and in algae
chloroplast
56
produce hydrogen peroxide and convert it to water
Peroxisome
57
is a network of fibers that organizes structures and activities in the cell; found in the cytoplasm; gives mechanical support to the cell.
Cytoskeleton
58
is an extracellular structure of plat cells; made of cellulose fibers embedded in other polysaccharides and protein; many have multiple layers.
Cell wall
59
are channels that perforate plant cell walls
Plasmodesmata
60
functions as a selective barrier; allows sufficient passage of nutrients and waste; it supports and protects the cell; also helps maintain homeostasis
plasma membrane
