Plant Cells FLASHBACK Are plants eukaryotic or prokaryotic? What does eukaryotic mean? Parts of a Plant Cell cell wall Golgi vesicles ribosome smooth ER nucleolus nucleus rough ER Large central vacuole amyloplast cell membrane Golgi apparatus chloroplast vacuole membrane raphide crystal druse crystal mitochondrion cytoplasm Cell Wall Surrounds the plasma membrane 3 layers Middle Lamella Primary Wall Secondary Wall Middle Lamella 1st layer formed Outer wall of the cell Shared by adjacent cells and cements them together Primary Cell Wall INDSIDE middle lamella Rigid skeleton of cellulose microfibrils in a gel-like matrix of pectic and cellulose compounds. Contains everything that is located between plasma membrane and the cuticle Primary Cell Wall Functions Structural & mechanical support Maintain cell shape Resist turgor pressure Control rate and direction of growth Carbohydrate storage Cell-cell interactions Secondary Wall Formed after cell enlargement is completed. Extremely rigid Contains lignin- brown phenolic polymer Present in trees and shrubs Plasmodesmata Small passages that penetrate all layers of the cell wall Pathways for transporting cytoplasmic molecules Plasma (cell) Membrane Phospholipid bilayer Sandwich modelphospholipid layers sandwiched between protein layers Embedded glycoproteins Water permeable Not permeable to molecules and ions by simple diffusion Gatekeeper for the cell. Golgi Apparatus Stack of flattened membrane-bound sacs Storage, modification, and secretion of proteins and lipids Lipids and proteins can be used within the cell or destined to leave the cell Calcium Oxalate Crystals Located in the central vacuole Potentially toxic Raphide crystals-pointy and needle like Druse crystals-faceted Mitochondrion Membrane-bound organelle “power house” of the cell Respiration takes place here. Golgi vesicle Membrane bound Buds from Golgi apparatus Contain proteins Fuse with membrane and discharge contents in a process called exocytosis Ribosome Site of protein synthesis Composed of small sub unit, large sub unit, and central groove. ER Smooth ER Membrane bound system of folded sacs Provides a membrane surface where a variety of complex carbohydrates and lipids, including phospholipids are synthesized Detoxifies toxic substances Rough ER Attached ribosomes Nucleolus Where rna is synthesized Nucleus Membrane bound Where chromatin is stored Large Central Vacuole Large membrane bound sac Stores water, salts, pigments, and potentially toxic molecules. Helps maintain rigidity Others Amyloplast- a membrane-bound organelle made of layers of starch Lysosome- membrane-bound organelle containing hydrolytic (digestive) enzymes Peroxisome- a membrane-bound organelle that contains specific enzymes imported from cytosol (e.g. catalase) Chloroplast Intro Membrane bound organelle Site of photosynthesis CELL CITY Take 15 Endosymbiont Theory Chloroplasts and mitochondria house their own DNA. It is possible to track lineage through chloroplasts and mitochondria. Chloroplasts and mitochondria have their own phospholipid membrane. Endosymbiont Theory Scientists believe that plant and animal cells acquired chloroplasts and mitochondria through the process of symbiogenesis Symbiogenesis is acquiring cells or dna from other organisms. In other words:
