20
Q

2 cell types based on chromosome

21
Q

ATP

A

adenosine triphosphate. NRG stored in covalent bonds. powers cell activity

22
Q

ATP consists of..

A

3 phosphates, ribose, adenine

23
Q

Functions of DNA

A

cellular respiration. template to make RNA

24
Q

Functions of RNA

A

proteins synthesis

25
Functions of ATP
breaks bond to create immediate NRG
26
Cytoplasm
area between inside of cell membrane and outside of nucleus
27
Cytosol
gel like ICF
28
Ribosomes
sites for protein synthesis
29
Centrosomes
organize microtubules to form spindle apparatus and organize cytoskeleton
30
Cytoskeleton
determines cells shape, important in cell movement, divisions, anchoring of organelles
31
Microfilaments
muscle contraction, maintenance of cell shape, help with cytokenesis
32
Intermediate filaments
supports the cytoplasm
33
Microtubules
structural, move or secure organelles in place
34
Mitochondria
site of ATP synthesis
35
Rough er
attached ribosomes, synthesis of proteins
36
Smooth er
lacked attached ribosome, synthesis lipids and steroid hormones
37
Golgi apparatus
stacks of membrane discs, modifies, sorts, packages, and delivers proteins/lipids to cell membrane lysosomes, or for secretion
38
Lysosomes
filled with digestive enzymes, digest bacteria, viruses, worm out organelles.
39
Nucleus
cell control centre
