Animal and plant cells (3)

 

Cell membrane, Cytoplasm, DNA in nucleus

Bacterial cells (5)

Cell wall, Cell membrane, Cytoplasm, Single circular strand of DNA and plasmids (rings containing DNA found in Cytoplasm), no membrane bound organelles

Nucleus (animal&plant cells)

Contains DNA, enclosed in nuclear membrane

Cytoplasm (animal&plant cells)

Liquid where reaction occur containing enzymes (catalyst->proteins)

Cell membrane (animal&plant cells)

Barrier between cell and environment, controls what enters and leaves the cell

Prokaryotes

Unicellular organism without a nuclei and organelles enclosed within a membrane (example: archaea & bacteria)

Eukaryotes

Multicellular organism with a nuclei containing DNA (membrane enclosed organelles)

Lipids in Cell Membrane (3)

Phospholipids, Glycolipids , Cholesterol

Phospholipid (structure,location,function)

Hydrophilic polar phosphate head with hydrophobic fatty acids tails, in the membrane, the most abundant

Cholesterol (structure,location,function, other name?)

Hydrophilic head and hydrophobic acid tail, located in bilayer, gives stability - controlling membrane fluidity, sterol

Glycoplipid (structure,location,function)

Hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail (steroid rings), surface of membrane, communication between cells - cell-cell recognition

Function of Plasma Membrane (4)

 

Selectively permeable seal for cell, maintains constant internal environment (homeostasis), cell-cell communication (recognition), non recognition

Integral proteins (PM) (3)

Alpha helix (recognition, receptors), helical bundle (enzymes, transport, receptors), beta barrel (transport -> channel proteins)

Peripheral protein (PM) 

Enzymes, anchorage, transporters

Golgi Apparatus (functions (3), structure (3)

Membrane bound organelle, modifies and secretes proteins, transports lipids, creates lysosomes - Trans, medial, cis parts

Lysosomes (description, function (2, containing special word))

Membrane bound vesicle containing digestive enzymes, destruction of damaged, deseased cells & bacteria, autophagy!

Mitochondria

Membrane bound, ATP production with aerobic respiration, contains two membranes

Nucleus (structure with membrane, content (2), function)

Membrane bound, large organelle surrounded by nuclear envelope (membrane), contains nucleic acid (hereditary info) and RNA, controls the cell

Rough endoplasmatic reticulum (RER) (location, content (3)

Membrane bound, extention from nuclear membrane (envelope), ribosomes (rough), membrane & modified proteins in reticulum (network)

Smooth endoplasmatic reticulum (SMR) (location, function (2)

Membrane bound, extention from RER, synthesis of proteins and metabolism of fats and steroid hormones

Vaculoes (location, content, explain in plants)

Membrane bound vesicle, liquid with dissolved substances, plants have large main vacuole which is storage in cell

Vesicle (types (4), function), importance)

Lysosomes, vacuoles, secretory, transport, move chemicals and biomolecules around the cell where needed, crucial for cell

Cell wall (plant) (content (3), function (3)

Non-membrane bound, cellulose (polysaccharide) fibres linked with hydrogen bonds, pectin, hemicellulose (polysaccharides), support cell structure, separates cell from environment, water permeable

Cell wall (funghi) (content, function (2))

Non-membrane bound, chitin, glucan & manan (polysaccharides), structural support, environmental stresses (osmotic shock)

Cell wall (bacterial) (2 types, function (2))

Non-membrane bound, gram positive (single membrane) or gram negative (double membrane), structural support, protects from environmental stresses (osmotic shock)

Centrioles (location, function)

Non-membrane bound, contained in dense area of cytoplasm close to nucleus (centrosome), involved in cell division

Cilia (structure (2), function (2))

Non-membrane bound, groups of cilia produce wave-like motion across surface of cell, made of microtubules, move organisms, move within organisms

Cytoskeleton (function (2), filaments (3))

Non-membrane bound, maintains cells shape, intracellular movement, actin filaments (microfilaments), intermediate filaments, microtubules

Cytoplasm (content (2), function)

Non-membrane bound, made up of cytosol (fluid of salts, ions, water) & organelles, where many chemical reactions occur

Flagella (eukaryotic) (function, structure (2)

Non-membrane bound, propel cells through environment, made of microtubules, not hollow

Flagella (prokarytic) (function, structure (2)

 

Non-membrane bound, propel cell through environment, made of flagellin proteins, hollow
