| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| One disorder in detail | Mitochondrial disorders- cells do not produce enough ATP. Symptoms involve muscle weakness, seizures, respiratory problems, developmental delays, etc. Possible treatments inculde vitamins and Cofactors, supervised exercise, and target amino acids. |
| Glucose and how it relates to the cell membrane | |
| What is the cytoplasm? | Where metabolic reactions/activities take place. |
| What are organelles? | (Little Organs) Structures within the cell that have specific functions |
| What is the endoplasmic reticulum | It is a complex system of canals and channels. It is a transport system that includes the Rough ER and the Smooth ER |
| Another name of the Cell Membrane | Phospholipid Bilayer |
| It regulates what enters and leaves the cell - it is selectively permeable | The function of the Cell Membrane |
| What has a function that makes proteins and is located in the Rough ER? | Ribosomes |
| The "powerhouse" of the cell, harvests energy. | Mitochondria |
| Energy from food is converted to ATP through cellular respiration | The function of Mitochondria |
| Transports proteins to golgi apparatus. Its where ribosomes are located. | Rough ER |
| Its responsible for the production of ribosomes | Nucleolus |
| The area between the plasma membrane and nucleus, where most of the metabolic reactions & activities take place. The total of all biochemical reactions | Cytoplasm |
| Directs the activities of a cell. Contains genetic information (DNA) in the form of chromatin. | Nucleus |
| No ribosomes, its for lipid synthesis. | Smooth ER |
| Packaging and delivering proteins produced by ribosomes. | Function of the Golgi Apparatus (Bodies) |
| Breaks down substances. Contains enzyemes; sometimes called the "suicide sac". | Lysosomes |
| What causes Tay- Sachs? | Caused by defective lysosomes. |
| What is Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD)? | Very rare, affects the structure and function of cilia. |
| What two structures function in movement? | Cilia and Flagella |
