Cells Chapter 6.1 HS pg 122
Defined • Basic unit of structure and function of all living things
Cell Membrane • Surrounds cell =cell wall • Alias= plasma membrane • Regulates transport of molecules into and out of the cell • Semi permeable • Composed of phospholipid bilayer and proteins
Nucleus • Most important organelle • Controls activity • Contains DNA • Nuclear membrane=envelopes the nucleus • Nucleoplasm= semi fluid that holds chromatin in place,
Cytoplasm/cytoskeleton • Cytoplasm= jelly like substance, fills area between nuclear membrane and cell membrane • Cytoskeleton= structure acts as support for cell, cytoplasm flows throughout, and holds organelles in place
Centrioles • Two cylinder shaped organelles found near the nucleus • Perpendicular to each other • Separate from each other in mitosis • Spindle fibers pull away from each other and cell splits (spindle fibers attach to chromosomes)
Endoplasmic Reticulum • Network of tubular structures • Serves as transport system for cell • Rough ER= ribosomes attached • Smooth=cholesterol synthesis, fat metabolism and detox of drugs
Mitochondria • Rod shaped organelle • Supplies cell with energy in the form of ATP • “power house” of the cell
Golgi Apparatus • Golgi Body/complex • Synthesizes carbs and combines them with proteins • Stores and packages secretions for discharge from the cell • Abundant in cells of gastric glands, salivary glands, pancreatic glands
Lysosomes • Spherical shaped • Digestive enzymes to digest protein molecules • Digests old worn out cells, bacteria, and foreign matter • If lysosome ruptures, it eats the cells proteins=cell death=nicknamed “suicide bags”
Perioxisomes • Membranous sac • Contains oxidase enzymes= digest fats and detox harmful substances
