Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Nickname: “Roads” Function: The internal delivery system of the cell
27
Endoplasmic Reticulum
2 Types: Rough ER: Rough appearance because it has ribosomes on its surface Function: helps make proteins, that’s why it has ribosomes Smooth ER: NO ribosomes Function: makes fats or lipids

56
It’s a question of control.
Cell Transport It’s a question of control.
57
Who’s in control? Cells get nutrients, etc. from environment
Release waste into same environment
58
Moving along…or not! Selective permeability: property of a cell membrane which allows some materials to pass through while keeping others out.
59
Diffusion Molecules move constantly
Move from crowded conditions to less crowded conditions Particles diffuse in liquids and in gases
60
Diffusion cont’d Equilibrium: molecules of a substance are spread evenly throughout a space Molecules continue to move during equilibrium
61
Osmosis—Diffusion of H2O
The diffusion of water through a cell membrane Most cells surrounded by water molecules and contain water molecules
62
Osmosis Cont’d What happened to egg cells in lab?
If cells aren’t surrounded by pretty pure water, they’ll lose the water. No water molecules in corn syrup around eggs—so ….
63
Water tended to move out of the cells and dilute the corn syrup
Cells became shriveled and yolks became firm
64
Place eggs in pure water and the process is reversed
The eggs swell up and the yolks slosh around inside
65
Moving on… Particle movement across cell membrane by diffusion is called passive transport because… Cell doesn’t use energy to move the materials
66
Active transport: energy required to move large molecules through cell membrane
Need help of transport proteins
67
Active transport is required to move substances from where there are small amounts to where there are large amounts
68
Cell membrane Cell membrane is composed of a double layer (bilayer) of phospholipids with protein molecules scattered throughout Phospholipids make a bilayer with polar heads facing out and hydrophobic tails facing in
