ch6 bio euk cells

  1. autophagy
    destruction of own organelles by lysosome
  2. peroxisome
    • important in metabolizing lipids using h2o2
    • converts it to water and oxygen tho so not harmful to cell
  3. colligative properties
    • depend on number of solutes present in solvent
    • vapour pressure: pressure exerted by gas molecules that've evaporated from solvent
    • boiling point: point at which liquid becomes gas
    • freezing point: point where liquid becomes solid
    • solutes present in solvent disrupt the solvent structure because it binds to them so the packing is less orderly and thus changes would be observed to these properties
  4. tight junctions
    • creates regions (apical, lateral) on cell
    • prevents passage of substances btwn 2 cells
    • tight seal
  5. desmosome
    holds cells tgth at certain points
  6. gap junctions
    connections btwn 2 cells that allow mixing of their cytoplasms
