Cell Structures, Functions and Transport Cell Basics basic unit of structure and function in living things complex structures most specialized to perform certain functions coordinated functions critical for survival composed of four basic chemicals C, O, H, N plus traces of Fe, Na, K, Ca 60% water Functions of Cell Structure defines function. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. basic unit of life protection and support movement communication cell metabolism and energy release inheritance 3 main regions 1. 2. 3. nucleus cytoplasm with organelles nuclear membrane Figure 7-5 Plant and Animal Cells Section 7-2 Go to Section: Animal Cell Animal Cell Nucleus the control center holds the DNA – instruction for building proteins necessary for cell reproduction nucleus 3 regions of nucleus 1. Nuclear membrane – double membrane with “moat” in between 2. selectively permeable encloses nucleoplasm Outer and inner membranes form pores. Nucleolus: where ribosomes are assembled chromatin – fibers that form dense, rodlike structures (chromosomes) during cell reproduction 3. composed of DNA and proteins, loosely formed when cell is not dividing Cytoplasm 1. cellular material outside the nucleus but within the cell membrane site of most cellular activities composed of 3 major components cytosol – semi-transparent fluid composed mostly of water 2. inclusions chemical substances present but not functioning 3. types dependent on function of cell fat droplets in fat cells melanin in the skin primarily stored substances organelles Organelles mitochondria powerhouse of the cell small, sausage-shaped move, change shape continuously double membrane inner – smooth outer – folds called cristae Organelles Fluid enzymes and cristae breakdown food. Energy is released and used to form ATP. The more energy a cell requires, the more mitochondria it has. liver and muscles Organelles Ribosomes tiny round structures site of protein synthesis made up of proteins and one ribosomal RNA some attached, some free-floating Organelles Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) 3. minicirculatory system for cell series of tubules and sacs through cytoplasm carry substances from one part of cell to another Organelles 2 Types: 1. Rough ER 2. studded with ribosomes transports proteins made by ribosomes found in pancreas Smooth ER no ribosomes, no protein synthesis cholesterol synthesis metabolize fat, detox drugs found in liver, testes Organelles Golgi Apparatus UPS guys of cell composed of closely packed membranebound sacs packages, modifies, and transports proteins from rough ER found in salivary glands, pancreas Organelles Lysosomes intracellular digestive system contain digestive enzymes engulf bacteria other harmful substances and get rid of them removed used and worn out cell parts found in white blood cells Organelles peroxisomes contain oxydase enzymes to digest fats and detox alcohol, formaldehyde convert dangerous free radicals into H2O2 can mess up protein and nucleic acid structures catalase then converts into H2O2 to water Organelles cytoskeleton provide framework or skeleton of cell shape, support, intracellular transport, movement made up of protein structures throughout cytoplasm microtubules, intermediate filaments, microfilaments Organelles centrioles rod-shaped bodies close to nucleus direct formation of mitotic spindle used in cell division centrosomes composed of two centrioles grow into spindle fibers used during cell division Organelles vacuoles membranous sacs holding area for substances entering the cell Other Cellular Structures cilia – projections from surface of cell cylindrical shape ex: move mucus in respiratory system flagella – longer than cilia usually only one per cell ex: sperm cells microvilli – extensions on surface of cell membrane increase surface area for absorption ex: intestines, kidneys
