1. The Mighty, Mighty, Mitochondrion!

2. Singular = mitochondrion Plural = mitochondria

3. Structure of a Mitochondrion -looks like a worm -has TWO membranes -1 st regular (outer membrane) -2 nd folded up (this one is called the CRISTAE) -Guess what both of these Membranes are made of???? -has a little bit of DNA

4. Illustration of Structure

5. Function of the Mitochondrion -The mitochondrion releases energy from carbohydrates. -carbohydrates get turned into a form of energy called ATP

6. Which cells have mitochondria? -ALL EUKARYOTIC CELLS HAVE MITOCHONDRIA -cells that need more energy have more than others

7. Where is the ATP actually made? -The ATP is made on the folds of the CRISTAE Why do you think they're folded up like that?

8. Why do mitochondria have DNA? Mitochondria have a little bit of DNA, but it's not organized. What does that remind you of?

9. Remembering trick: MITOCHONDRIA = ATP

10. Ribosomes

11. Where do they come from? -Ribosomes are made in the nucleus, and then sent out into the cytosol -They are made of RNA and protein combined together

12. Ribosomes make proteins

13. Remembering Trick: RIBOSOMES = MAKE PROTEINS

14. Endoplasmic Reticulum, a.k.a E.R

15. Structure of the Endoplasmic Reticulum The E.R. is a series of stacked membranes that look like tunnels of balloons.

16. The Function of the Endoplasmic Reticulum -The E.R. helps move materials around the cell. -The Rough E.R. transports proteins to other places after they’re made by the ribosomes. -The Smooth E.R. transports other materials.

17. Remembering Trick E.R.= HIGHWAY

18. The Golgi Apparatus The E.R. transports proteins to the Golgi Apparatus…

19. Structure of the Golgi Apparatus The G.A. looks like a bunch of semi- circular balloons stacked up.

20. Function of the Golgi Apparatus -The Golgi Apparatus packages, processes, and polishes proteins.

21. Remembering Trick G.A. = POST OFFICE
