2 centrioles direct formation of mitotic spindle In 9+0 array

The centrosome, also called the "microtubule organizing center", is an area in the cell where microtubles are produced. Within an animal cell centrosome there is a pair of small organelles, the centrioles, each made up of a ring of nine groups of microtubules. There are three fused microtubules in each group. The two centrioles are arranged such that one is perpendicular to the other. During animal cell division, the centrosome divides and the centrioles replicate (make new copies). The result is two centrosomes, each with its own pair of centrioles. The two centrosomes move to opposite ends of the nucleus, and from each centrosome, microtubules grow into a "spindle" which is responsible for separating replicated chromosomes into the two daughter cells.

Cilia In 9+2 array These are thread-like projections of certain cells that beat in a regular fashion to create currents that sweep materials along; Q. Name sites where cilia can be found. 1._____________ 2._____________ Answer: 1.Respiratory epithelium 2.Fallopian tube

Flagella These may extend to the rear of a cell and push it forward by snakelike wriggling, or stick out in front and draw it along. Q. Where can flagella be found in humans? __________________ Answer: Sperm Each sperm cell is propelled by a trailing flagellum that accelerates the little torpedo forward in its quest to fertilize an egg.

Ribosomes Q. Ribosomes are made up of 60% _______ & 40% _______. They are active in _______ synthesis. There are 2 types of ribosomes 1.__________ 2.__________ Answers: 60% RNA + 40% Protein Active in protein synthesis There are Fixed (on RER)and free ribosomes

Membranous Organelles

Nucleus

The nucleus is the control center of the cell. It is the largest organelle in the cell and it contains the DNA of the cell. The DNA of all cells is made up of ______________. DNA + _________proteins = Nucleosome ____________ + Linker DNA = Chromatin Answer: The DNA of all cells is made up of chromosomes. DNA + Histone proteins = Nucleosome Nucleosome + Linker DNA = Chromatin

Inside the nucleus is another organelle called the nucleolus. The nucleolus is responsible for making ribosomes. The fenestrations on the surface of the nucleus are the nuclear pores. These are where ribosomes, and other materials move in and out of the cell.

Mitochondria

Mitochondria are sometimes described as "cellular power plants" because they generate most of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), used as a source of chemical energy Every type of cell has a different amount of mitochondria.. There are more mitochondria in cells that have to perform lots of work, for example- your leg muscle cells, heart muscle cells etc. Q. The mitochondrion has its own independent genome inherited from which gametocyte? Answer: Ovum

Smooth(SER) & Rough (RER) endoplasmic reticulum Chambers = cysternae Function: Synthesis  Storage  Transport

Fill in the blanks ER is a network of membranes throughout the cytoplasm of the cell. There are two types of ER. When ______________are attached it is called rough ER (RER)and smooth ER (SER) when there are no ______________ attached. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is where most ________________ occurs in the cell. The function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is to synthesize __________in the cell. The smooth ER is also helps in the ___________of harmful substances in the cell.

Answer ER is a network of membranes throughout the cytoplasm of the cell. There are two types of ER. When ribosomes are attached it is called rough ER (RER)and smooth ER (SER) when there are no ribosomes attached. The rough endoplasmic reticulum is where most protein synthesis occurs in the cell. The function of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum is to synthesize lipids in the cell. The smooth ER is also helps in the detoxification of harmful substances in the cell.

Golgi Apparatus vesicles come from ? Packaging and shipping of proteins Packaging and shipping of proteins Cell membrane renewal

Lysosomes Function as the cell's recycling compartment. Lysosomes receive cellular and endocytosed proteins and lipids that need digesting. The metabolites that result are transported either by vesicles or directly across the membrane.
