Important Points Cell
Important Points Cell
membrane
• Flagellum: used for movement
• Pili: small hair-like structures used for
attaching to other cells
• Capsule : outer layer that protects
bacteria, often associated with harmful
bacteria
• Organelles "little organs" that carry out
cell functions
• Cytoplasm : jelly-like fuid interior of the
cell
• Chromatin: DNA bound to protein (non-
dividing cell
• Chromosomes: condensed structures
seen in dividing cell
• Ribosomes are the organelles that carry
out protein synthesis
• vesicles enclosed sacs made of
membrane material
• The ER membrane is continuous with the
nuclear envelope and consist of RER,SER
• Smooth ER- no ribosomes
• secretory proteins called glycoproteins
• Lysosomes: are membrane bounded
vesicles containing hydrolytic enzymes
• Rough ER- contains ribosomes.
• lysosomes play a critical role in the
programmed destruction of cells
(apoptosis)
• Found only in plant chloroplast
• The cytoskeleton is a network of fbers
extending throughout the cytoplasm.
• cytoskeleton helps cells maintain their
shape and internal organization
• sites of photosynthesis chloroplast
• chlorophyll make chloroplast green
• The primary cell wall in plant: is made of
cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin
• The secondary cell wall: composed
mainly of cellulose and lignin
• plasmodesma channels allowing cytosol
to pass between cell
• Tow component of cytoskeleton are
microfilaments , microtubules
• Animal cells e not have cell walls
• Cellular respiration making ATP to
prvide energy
• Powerhouse of the cell mitochondaria
• LYSOSOMES take in and break down
cellular derbis
• Vacuoles sac like organelles store
material within cell
• It receives proteins from the ER, then it
modify and sorts them for transport golgi
apparatus
• Transport poretin to glolgi ER
• RIBOSOMS make protein
• Nucleous make ribosms
• Passive transport: no input of energy
• Active transport: Some small molecules
use active transport, which requires both
energy and a transport
• Bulk transport: Large molecules move in
and out, using bulk transport; exocytosis
or endocytosis
• Provide corridors that allow a specific
molecule or ion to cross the membrane
Channel proteins
• They are usually transmembrane proteins
Integral membrane protein
• Are the major structural components of
the cell membrane: phospholipids and
proteins
• The major role of Membrane
Carbohydrates is Cell-Cell Recognition
• Higher temperature increases fluidity
• Cholesterol enables membrane fluidity at
low temperature because it hinders its
solidification
• Most membrane proteins are also
amphipathic
• Phagocytosis (takes in food) and
Pinocytosis (takes in fluid)
• Define isotonic , hypertonic , hypotonic
•
