anatomy II

exam 2

QuestionAnswer
some things can cross the membrane, others cant selectively permeable
Includes everything inside the cell membrane and outside of the nucleus. Components participate in cell metabolism cytoplasm
viscous fluid in which other materials are suspended cytosol
"little organs" inside of cell which carry out specific functions organelles
stored chemicals like lipid droplets, glycogen, pigment granules, protein fibers inclusions
Cytosol components: water 85-90%; protein 7-10%; Fat 1-2%; Organics 0.5-1.5% (Carbohydrates, DNA,RNA); Inorganics 0.5-1.5% (Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Chloride)
enzyme containing sacs. Contain acid hydrolases, enzymes capable of digesting worn out cell structures and foreign substances lysosomes
enzyme containing sacs. uses oxygen to detoxify a number of harmful substances. in kidney and liver cells peroxisomes
rod-shaped bodies with double membrane wall; inner membrane is thrown into folds, or cristae. oxidative enzymes catalyze the kreb cycle creating ATP for the cell mitochondria
Small structures found free in the cytoplasm or attached to an organelle (ER, nucleus) or in mitochondria ribosomes
Made of subunits of protein and rRNA ribosomes
primary function of ribosomes site of protein synthesis
Ribosomes are attached to its outer surface (cytosolic- facing the cytosol) rough ER
Abundant in cells specialized to produce secreted proteins, like pancreas (digestive enzymes), liver (clotting factors), and plasma B-cells (WBC's that make antibodies) rough ER
Lipid synthesis and metabolism ­ cholesterol, lipoproteins, steroid hormones, phospholipids smooth ER
Carbohydrate synthesis and breakdown of stored glycogen to release glucose in liver smooth ER
Absorption, synthesis, and transport of fats in intestinal cells smooth ER
Detoxification of drugs/chemicals in liver and kidney cells smooth ER
In skeletal and cardiac muscle, serve as calcium storage sacs. smooth ER
Stack of fluid-filled sacs golgi apparatus
Transport vesicles bud off from the rough ER and migrate it golgi apparatus
processes proteins (adds or removes carbohydrates or lipids; phosphates added; some cut or joined;) and re-packages them for transport through cell golgi
Vesicles transport proteins to the appropriate location with the help of tags added to the proteins from it golgi
contain proteins which will be secreted (released) from the cell secretory vesicle
contain proteins which will become part of the cell membrane, and therefore fuse with it membrane vesicle
contains acid hydrolase enzymes lysosome
Network of fibers that help the cell keep its shape. also keeps organelles and nucleus in position, and helps them move cytoskeleton
Protein molecules- ("Tubulin") stacked into tubes, 13 tubes in a circle (25 nm diameter) microtubules
Help materials move in cell, including during cell division and determine organelle position by attaching to and moving them microtubules
More like 2 twisted chains of beads, where the beads are the protein actin (5-8 nm diameter) microfilament
Found throughout cell to give it shape, but especially found attached to inside of cell membrane for support. microfilaments
Guide movement of materials in cell microfilaments
Structure is more like a rope or strand of yarn. More permanent than other 2, and very strong (function is to reinforce cell structure) intermediate filaments
Found in a pair at right angles, near nucleus centrioles

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
