Cellular Fx: Communication - Ans:✔✔-communicate, ex: neurotransmitters
3 Components of a cell - Ans:✔✔-plasma membrane, intracellular organelles, cytoplasm
Nucleus - Ans:✔✔-Control center of the cell, prominent organelle, 10% of space, it contains the genetic
material, surrounded by nuclear envelope,
Cytoplasm - Ans:✔✔-fills the space between the nuclear envelope and the plasma membrane
Cytoplasm function - Ans:✔✔--synthesis and transport
-isolates and eliminates wastes
-metabolic processes
-maintenance of cellular motility
-storage
Ribosomes structure - Ans:✔✔-Ribonucleic acid (RNA protein complexes: free vs. attached ribosomes
Antibiotics (some work) - Ans:✔✔-by shutting down the ribosomes in bacteria
Ribosomes fuction - Ans:✔✔-synthesize proteins
Endoplasmic reticulum structure - Ans:✔✔-network of tubular or saclike channels: smooth vs rough
endoplasmic reticulum

Endoplasmic reticulum fuction - Ans:✔✔-process, transports molecules to their specific destinations
either inside or outside the cell, site of protein synthesis; senses cellular stress
Ribosomes are nucleoproteins that - Ans:✔✔-synthesize a signal recognition sequence
Golgi Complex structure - Ans:✔✔-flattened, smooth membranes, secretory vesicles and cisternae,
proteins from the ER that are package in the golgi complex
Golgi complex fuctions - Ans:✔✔-refining plant and directs traffic, processes, secretes and releases
substances especially protein from cells
Golgi complex functions - Ans:✔✔-finishing, packaging, and mailing center, sends them to their final
destination
Lysosomes - Ans:✔✔-recycling center(recycle worn out cell parts) and garbage trucks
Lysosomes structure - Ans:✔✔-saclike structures that originate from the Golgi complex
Lysosomes fxn - Ans:✔✔-intracellular digestion system, role in auto-digestion and autophagy, digest
foreign bacteria that invade the cell and rid the cell of toxic substances
Peroxisomes structure - Ans:✔✔-contain oxidative enzymes, are the major sites of oxygen utilization
Peroxisomes functions - Ans:✔✔-detoxify compounds and fatty acids, use oxygen to remove hydrogen
atoms from substrates, synthesize specialized phospholipids for nerve cell myelination
