All orgainisms are composed of one or more cells & Basic unit for structure functions
All living things are made of cells
All cells come from pre-existing cells
Cell Theory
A semi-permiable barrier that holds all cells together and controlls what can and cant enter the cell.
-See coloring for phospholipids bi-lager with protein structure
Cell (plasma) Membrane
Controll center of the cell that contains chromosomes made of DNA (your genes are located on your chromosomes) The information encoded on your chromosomes tells your ribosomes how to make the diffrent proteins tha make you.
Nucleus
Inside the Nucleus
Makes ribosomes (out of DNA)
Nucleolus
Located floating in the cytosol or attached to Endoplasmic reticulum. They assemble Amino Acids into protein using instruction from DNA
Ribosomes
A watery protein fluid gel that supports and nourishes cell parts
Cytosol
The powerhouse of the cell, site of cellular respiration, converts the energy found in food to cellular energy (ATP)
Mitochondria
Production and Transportation tubes of cell. 2 types:
Smooth E.R: produces and transports carbs and lipids also detoxifyes poisons
Rough ER: Has ribosomes attatched to it to produce and transport protein
Endoplasmis Reticulum
(The thing inside the cell - that goes back and forth)
Add finishing touches, sort, prepare and package cell products into vesicles for transport through and out of the cell
Golgi Apparatus
(Thing-a-ma-jig)
"Suicide sac" contains enzymes to digest and recycle wate, infectious agents and warn out cell parts
Lysosomes
(Split-bodys)
Constantly changing support framework that anchors organelles and moves cell parts. Made of mitochondria and microfilimants.
Cytoskeleton
(Cell - skeleton)
Stores water. Very large in plant cells. provides them with turgur preassure
Vacuoles
NOT IN PLANT CELLS! Set up Spindell aperatus in mitosis to move chromosomes to opposite sides of the cell and in cell divison.
Centrioles
Hairlike cytoplasmic extensions that sweep back and forth (Crowd surrfing) Respritiory tract and fallopian tubes.
