ch. 6-7
lysosomes, is a membranous sac of hydrolytic enzymes
-
if a lysosomes breaks open or leaks, the enzymes that were released aren't very active b/c the cytosol in near neutral pH
-
-

-
endomembrane system
includes nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vesicles and vacuoles, the plasma membrane
it does protein synthesis, transport of proteins, into membrane and organelles or out of the cell
endoplasmic reticulum, extensive network of membranes that have tubules and sacs cristae
smooth ER, outer membrane lacking ribosomes
metabolic processes of lipids, metabolism of carbohydrates, detoxification of drugs and poisons, storage of calcium ions
enzymes of smooth ER synthesize lipids, oils, and steroids and new membrane phospholipid
-
rough ER, studded with ribosomes on the outer membrane
Golgi apparatus, warehouse for receiving, sorting, shipping and manufacturing
products of the ER, proteins are stored and sent to other destinations
-
-
nucleus houses DNA and ribosomes, that use information from DNA to make proteins
nucleus of eukaryotic cell contains most of the genes, some genes are located in the mitochondria and chloroplasts
-
within the nucleus the DNA is organized into unites called chromosomes structures that carry genetic info
each chromosome has one long DNA with many proteins, they help coil DNA so that it can fit into the nucleus
-
ribosomes made of ribosomal RNA and protein, they carry out protein synthesis
-
bound ribosomes
-
make proteins that are inserted into the membrane for packaging within certain organelles such as lysosomes or export from cell
-
-
cell junction
-
desmosomes, fastens cell together into strong sheets, they also attach muscle cells to each other in a muscle
gap junction, they are the communicating junction
active transport, against it concentration gradient , requires work the cell must expand energy
it enables a cell to maintain internal concentration that differ from concentration it is environments

Microscopy
Light microscope (LM), visible light is passed through the specimen and then through the glass
electron microscope (EM), focuses a beam of electrons through the specimen or onto the surface
scanning electron microscope (SEM), used for detailed study of the topography of a specimen (resulting image is in 3D)
transmission electron microscope (TEM), used for internal structure of the cell (in 2D)
magnification, resolution, and contrast
-
resolution, measure of clarity of the image
contrast, the differences in brightness between light and dark areas of an image
-
cell fractionation, study of cell structure and function
-
using a centrifuge that spins test tubes holding the mixtures of disrupted cells at different speeds
each speed, the force causes the cells components to settle at the bottom of the tube forming a pellet
-
-
-
plasma membrane
-
allows a passage of enough oxygen, nutrients, and waste to service the cell
a limited amount of particular substance can cross per second so the ratio of surface area to volume is critical
-
area is proportional to a linear dimension squared, volume is proportional to the linear dimension cubed
-
mitochondria, sites for cellular respiration, process that drive ATP
chloroplast, in plants and algae are sites for photosynthesis
divided from the cytosol by an envelope with two membranes separated by a narrow intermembrane space
inside the chloroplasts are sacs called thylakoids, they a stacked like poker chips and each stack is called a granum
outside of the thylakoids is a fluid called the stroma, containing chloroplasts DNA and ribosomes as well as enzymes
chloroplasts are mobile like mitochondria and other organelles, move around the cell along tracks of the cytoskeleton
-
exocytosis, the cell secretes certain molecules by the fusion of vesicles with the plasma membranes
transport vesicles migrate to the membrane, fuse with it, and release their contents outside the cell
-
endocytosis, cell takes in molecules and particulate matter by forming new vesicles from the plasma membrane
-
vacuoles, derived from the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus
-
contractile vacuoles, pump excess water out of the cell, maintaining suitable concentrations of ions and molecules
-
-
diffusion, molecules to spread out evenly into the available space
dynamic equilibrium, molecules crossing the membrane each second in direction as the other
rules of diffusion, a substance will diffuse from where it is more concentrated to less concentrated
substance will diffuse down its concentration gradient which the density of a chemical substances increases or decreases
diffusion requires no energy, it is a spontaneous process
