THE CELLULAR ORGANIZATION

Cards (58)

  • PARTS OF THE CELL
    Plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus
  • parts of plasma membrane
    lipid bilayer, membrane proteins
  • membrane protein
    integral proteins, periheral proteins
  • What type of protein forms a pore for specific ions to flow through the membrane?
    Ion channel (integral)
  • What is another name for carrier proteins?
    Transporters
  • selective permeability
    permits some substances to pass more readily than others
  • concentration gradient
    a difference in the concentration of a chemical from one place to another
  • electrical gradient
    a difference in electrical charges between two regions
  • transport process across the plasma membrane
    passive transport
    active transport
  • passive transport
    DIFFUSION
    OSMOSIS
  • ACTIVE TRANSPORT
    PRIMARY ACTIVE TRANSPORT (NA-K Pump)
    SECONDARY ACTIVE TRANSPORT
    VESICULAR
  • PASSIVE PROCESS
    movement of substances down a concentration gradient until equilibrium is reached; does not require energy in the form of ATP
  • diffusion
    movements of molecules or ions down a concentration gradient due to their kinetic energy until they reach equilibrium
  • simple diffusion
    passive movement of a substance down its concentration gradient through the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane without the help of membrane transport proteins
  • facilitated diffusion

    passive movement of a substance down to its concentration gradient through the lipid bilayer by transmembrane proteins that function as channels or carriers
  • osmosis
    passive movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of higher to lower water concentration until equilibrium is reached
  • ACTIVE PROCESS
    movement of substances against concentration gradient; requires cellular energy in the from of ATP
  • ACTIVE TRANSPORT
    cell expands energy to move a substance across the membrane against concentration gradient by transmembrane proteins that function as carriers
  • primary active transport
    substances moves across the membrane against its concentration gradient by pumps that use energy supplied by hydrolysis of ATP
  • secondary active transport
    coupled active transport of two substance across the membrane using energy supplied by a Na+ and H+ concentration gradient maintained primary active transport pumps.
    antiporters have Na+ and another substance in opposite direction across the membrane; symporters move and another substance in the same direction across the membrane
  • transport vesicles
    substance move into or out of cells in vesicles that bud from plasma membrane
  • endocytosis
    movement of substances into cell vesicles
  • receptor-mediated endocytosis
    ligand-receptor complexes trigger in folding of a clathrin coated pit that forms a vesicle containing ligands
  • PARTS OF CYTOPLASM
    CYTOSOL
    CYTOSKELETON
    ORGANELLES
  • CYTOSKELETON
    Microfilament, intermediate filament, microtubules
  • ORGANELLES
    Centrosomes
    Cilia and Flagella
    Ribosomes
    Endoplasmic Reticulum
    Golgi Complex
    Lysosomes
    Peroxisomes
    Proteasomes
    Mitochondria
  • centrosomes
    the pericentriolar material contain tubulins, which are used for growth of mitotic spindle and microtubule foundation
  • cilia
    moves fluids over the cells surface
  • flagella
    moves the whole cell
  • rough er
    synthesizes glycoproteins and phospholipids tat are transferred to cellular organelle
  • smooth er
    synthesizes fatty acids and steroids
  • Golgi complex
    accepts proteins from rough er, modifies molecules further then sorts and packages them for transport to their materials
  • lysosomes
    fuses with and digest content of endosomes, pinocytic vesicles, and phagosomes and transport final product of digestion into cytosol
  • proteasomes
    degrades unneeded, damaged, of faulty proteins by cutting them into small pieces
  • mitochondria
    site of aerobic cellular inspiration reactions that produces most of cells ATP. play important role in apoptosis
  • ATP
    the energy currency of the cell
  • CELL DIVISION
    mitosis
    meiosis
  • mitosis
    all cells
  • meiosis
    gametes cell
  • stages of cell division
    interphase - mitotic phase - cytokinesis
