AP Biology - Cell Organelles

What is the role of ribosomes?

• To store genetic information.

• To produce glycolipids.

• To synthesize proteins.

• To hydrolyze waste materials.

Centrosome/Centrioles

• creates energy (ATP) from food; site of cellular respiration

• stores food, water, or wastes with the cell; plant cells have a special vacuole

• uses enzymes to digest bacteria, viruses, and old organelles (old cell parts are recycled)

• create special structures called spindle fibers that are used in cell division

Where are ribosomes produced?

• Nucleolus
• Endoplasmic reticulum
• Golgi body
• Vessicle

Cytoskeleton

• maintains homeostasis by controlling what enters and leaves the cell

• suspends the organelles and provides an environment for chemical reactions within the cell

• makes proteins

• provides structure for cells and movement of organelles

Receives protein and materials from the ER, packages them, and distributes them.

• Golgi Bodies
• Mitochondria
• Endoplasmic Reticulum
• Large Central Vacuole

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic condition that is associated with defects in the CFTR protein found in the membrane. Which organelle synthesized the protein?

• Golgi Bodies

• Rough ER

• Smooth ER

• Lysosome

What am I?

• mitochondria
• lysosomes
• chloroplast
• endoplasmic reticulum

Lysosome:

• The smallest organelle with a huge job / Makes proteins, which are the building blocks of the body.
  
• Small sacks with pores / Contains digestive hydrolytic enzymes that get rid of waste, worn-out cell parts, and captured invaders.
  

• Bean-shaped organelle filled with folded membranes / Breaks down glucose to release energy for cell functions
  
• Stacks of pancake-like membranes that package materials to ship out of the cell.

Eukaryotic Cell

• a cell containing a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles
• a cell that lacks a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles; includes achaea and bacteria
• the idea that the mitochonria and chloroplasts were once free living and were engulfed by other prokaryotic cells.
• a part of the cell containing DNA and RNA and responsible for growth and reproduction
