Cell Organelles United Streaming – Intro to Cells – 21 mins
3
Cell Membrane All living cells must maintain a balance (homeostasis) regardless of internal and external conditions.
4
Cell Membrane a.k.a. plasma membrane is the boundary between the cell and it’s environment. it regulates what passes into and out of the cell. some substances easily cross the membrane, while others cannot cross at all. For this reason, the cell membrane is said to be "Selectively Permeable”
5
Lipid bilayer mostly made of phospholipid molecules
phospholipids are a lipid that consists of 2 fatty acid (tails), and phosphate group (heads).
6
The phosphate head is hydrophilic meaning “water loving".
The lipid tails are hydrophobic meaning “water –fearing”.
7
Cells are bathed in aqueous, or watery, environment
Cells are bathed in aqueous, or watery, environment. Since the inside of a cell is also an aqueous environment, both sides of the cell membrane are surrounded by water molecules. These water molecules cause the phospholipids of the cell membrane to form two layers.
9
Fluid Mosaic Model proteins in membranes help to move material into and out of the cell. cholesterol – decreases the movement of phospholipids
10
Nucleus surrounded by a double layer membrane called the nuclear envelope. - has pores which allows things to enter and leave the nucleus control center of the cell - controls all cellular activity
11
Nucleolus Organelle within nucleus
contains DNA, in the form of long strands called chromatin. (chromatin coils to form chromosomes) DNA genetic information - and direction for making proteins site of ribosome synthesis
12
Organelles All cells contain specialized structures called organelles.
Each organelle has a specific function in the cell. Many (but not all) organelles are surrounded by their own membrane
13
Ribosomes site of protein synthesis
Not bound by a membrane site of protein synthesis exist floating freely in the cytoplasm or bound to rough ER
14
Ribosomes floating in the cytosol , make proteins that will be used within the cell
15
Endoplasmic Reticulum - ER
ER membrane is continuous with the nuclear membrane functions primarily as an intracellular highway, a path along which molecules move from one part of the cell to another
16
Rough ER Rough ER – has ribosomes attached to its surface Proteins made by the ribosomes attached to the rough ER are trasported out of the cell, or become part of the cell membrane
18
Smooth ER no ribosomes attached
Synthesizes lipids and steroids (hormones) detoxifies drugs
19
Golgi Apparatus receives proteins from the rough ER
sorts, modifies and repackage these molecules for transport the cell membrane or secretion from the cell. vacuoles – storage units
20
Lysosomes membrane bound sacs contain digestive enzymes (proteins)
site of food digestion
21
Cytoplasm Cytosol + organelles
Cytosol - is the internal fluid of the cell contains various organelles as well as salts, dissolved gasses and nutrients.
22
Mitochondria the cell's power producers site of cellular respiration
contain ribosomes and DNA
23
Centrioles plays an important role in cell division
made up of microtubules not found in plants
24
Cilia and Flagella cilia - hairlike organelles that extend from the surface of the cell flagella – whip like structure assist in movement
26
Unique Features of Plant Cells
cell wall – supports and protects the plant. Central vacuoles – 1 large vacuole in plant cells; pump out excess water
27
Chloroplast make or store food; process of photosynthesis
like mitochondria that are surrounded by a double membrane and contain their own DNA and ribosomes
28
