CYTOPLASMIC ORGANELLES
ORGANELLES ARE A SMALL PART OF A CELL (SOMETIMES CALLED SUBUNITS), THAT PERFORM A CERTAIN FUNCTION. THE ORGANELLES ARE FOUND IN THE CYTOPLASM, AND THERE ARE ABOUT NINE TYPES OF ORGANELLES.
(6) MITOCHONDRIA
(6A) 'THE MIGHTY MITOCHONDRIA' FUNCTION: IT'S THE POWERHOUSE OF THE ENTIRE CELL. ALSO THE LOCATION WHERE ATP (THE KIND OF ENERGY THAT ALLOWS CELLS TO 'DO THEIR JOBS') IS SYNTHESIZED HERE.
(7) PEROXISOMES
(7A) FUNCTION: WHERE TOXIC THINGS (LIKE ALCOHOL, TYLENOL AND DRUGS) ARE BROKEN DOWN, AND TURNED INTO WATER AND OXYGEN.
-
(8) CYTOSKELETON - AKA 'CELL SKELETON', AN INTRICATE NETWORK OF ROD LIKE STRUCTURES, THAT MOVE THROUGHOUT THE CYTOSKELETON. (THE CYTOSOL IS THE FLUID BASED SUBSTANCE (JELLY LIKE), THAT SUSPENDS THE OTHER CYTOPLASMIC ELEMENTS. THE THREE KINDS OF RODS IN THE CYTOSKELETON INCLUDE:
-
(8C) MICROTUBULES
THE LARGEST OF THE FIBERS. ARE FIBERS THAT BUILD UP AND BREAK DOWN. THEY HAVE A LUMEN, SO THEY'RE HOLLOW INSIDE. THEY SUPPORT THE CELL AND GIVE IT SHAPE.
(8A) MICROFILAMENT:
SMALLEST OF THE THREE FIBERS. THE PROTEIN THAT CONTROL MOVEMENT. THE PROTEIN IS ACTIN, AND IT'S LOCATED NEAR THE PLASMA MEMBRANE. HELPS OUR CELLS TO CHANGE SHAPE OF THE PLASMA MEMBRANE WHEN REQUIRED. THEY CAN BREAK DOWN AND BUILD UP. UNSTABLE.
(4) GOLGI APPARATUS
(4A) FUNCTION: THIS IS WHERE THE SECRETION OF PROTEINS (FROM THE CELL) ARE PACKAGED, MODIFIED/CHANGED AND SORTED OUT FOR EXPORT FROM THE CELL. -IT ENLARGES THE PLASM MEMBRANE -IT BECOMES A LYSOSOME, THEREFORE LYSOSOME FORMATION OCCURS HERE.
(9) CENTRIOLES
(9A) WHERE THE PROCESS OF MITOSIS OCCURS. (THE PROCESS OF NUCLEAR DIVISION). THE CENTRIOLES ARE ABLE TO PULL THE CHROMOSONES APART.
-
(1) RIBOSOMES
(1)FUNCTION AND ADDITIONAL INFO: THE SITE OF PROTEIN SYTNTHESIS (WHICH IS, THE PROCESS OF BUILDING COMPOUNDS, BY MEANS OF ONE OR MORE CHEMICAL REACTIONS), THE RIBOSOME HAS AMINO ACIDS ON IT. THEY ARE JOINED TOGETHER TO FORM THE PROTEIN MOLECULES, IN A PROCESS CALLED TRANSLATION. IT IS DICTATED BY THE DNA IN A CELL'S NUCLEUS.
-
EXOCYTOSIS
THIS IS WHERE SPECIALIZED PROTEINS ENTER THE PLASMA MEMBRANE. SUBSTANCES LIKE MUCUOUS AND HORMONES ARE THAN MOVED OUT OF THE CELL (BY EXOCYTOSIS).

CYTOPLASM
'CELL FORMING' MATERIAL
THREE MAJOR THINGS OCCUR HERE: (A) CYTOSOL = HOW MATERIAL IS SUSPENDED IN THE CYTOPLASM. (B) ORGANELLES - NINE DIFFERENT KINDS (C) INCLUSIONS.
NUCLEUS
THE 'BRAINS' OF THE CELL. MAKES ALL THE BIG DECISIONS WHICH ARE CARRIED OUT BY THE OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE CELL.
MOST CELLS ONLY HAVE ONE NUCLEUS. LARGE TISSUES LIKE SKELETAL MUSCLE CELLS, ARE MULTINUCLEATE. THERE IS USUALLY A LOT MORE SURFACE AREA THAT NEEDS TO BE MANAGED (HENCE THE REASON FOR MORE THAN ONE NUCLEUS.)
