CELL MEMBRANE |
STRUCTURE - Made up of proteins, phospholipid bilayer and glycoproteins. FUNCTION - regulates the movement of substances into and out of the cell. - Can be folded into microvilli to increase surface area for absorption. |
Movement |
|
|
NUCLEUS |
STRUCTURE - contains nucleolus, nucleoplasm and nuclear envelope. FUNCTION - contains DNA providing instructions of protein synthesis - nucleolus which coordinates the synthesis of ribosomes with rRNA and proteins. |
DNA |
|
|
MITOCHONDRIA |
STRUCTURE - contains matrix, Cristae, ribosome, granules, inner membrane, outer membrane FUNCTION - Double membrane bound organelle - inner membrane folded into the cristae that increases surface area. - contains matrix which contains respiratory enzymes for use in aerobic respiration producing ATP. |
ATP |
|
|
CHLOROPLASTS |
STRUCTURE - double membrane bound organelle - contains stroma, thylakoid, Granum and starch grain FUNCTION - contains chorophyll which is the site of light dependent reaction of photosynthesis. |
LIGHT |
|
|
GOLGI APPARATUS |
STRUCTURE - flattered membrane sacs FUNCTION - sort, modify and package proteins and lipids produced by the RER and SER. |
PROTEINS AND LIPIDS |
|
|
VESICLES |
STRUCTURE - Membrane bound FUNCTION - transport substances around the cell |
TRANSPORT |
|
|
LYSOSOME |
STRUCTURE - membrane sacs produced by golgi FUNCTION - contains lysozymes that can destroy unwanted structures and pathogens. |
DESTROY |
|
|
RIBOSOME |
STRUCTURE - made from rRNA and protein. FUNCTION - used for protein synthesis. |
PROTEIN |
|
|
ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RECTICULUM |
STRUCTURE - large networks of tubes often connects to the nuclear membrane FUNCTION - each membrane is called a cisternae - they’re covered in ribosomes for the transport and synthesis of proteins. |
PROTEINS |
|
|
SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM |
STRUCTURE - large network of tubes FUNCTIONS - for transport and synthesis of lipids |
LIPIDS |
|
|
CELL WALL |
STRUCTURE - made up of cellulose, murein and chitin FUNCTION - to provide strength and rigidity to the cell and to withstand pressure. |
STRENGTH |
|
|
VACUOLE |
STRUCTURE - contains cell sap FUNCTIONS - a weak solution of sugar and salts which can be used for storage and maintain cell shape. |
SAP |
|
|
ALGAL CELLS |
STRUCTURE - contains flagella [motile] chloroplast, cell wall [cellulose] FUNCTION - photosynthesis - multicellular or unicellular - eukaryotic |
|
|
|
FUNGAL CELLS |
STRUCTURE - cell wall [chitin] , no chloroplast - made up of long thin strands called hyphae FUNCTION - hyphae increase surface area for the absorption of water and ions - multicellular or unicellular |
