PRESENTATION OUTLINE
CELLULAR STRUCTURES
BY JACKSON JAMES 1st Period A&P
Rough ER
- Is responsible for many of the production of proteins due to the ribosomes located on the surface
Smooth ER
- manufacture of lipids and in some cases to the metabolism of them and associated products.
Golgi Apparatus
- It stores and delivers many different proteins and lipids delivered from the Rough and Smooth ERs.
Plasma/Cell Membrane
- The plasma membrane not only defines the borders of the cell, but also allows the cell to interact with its environment in a controlled way.
Mitochondrian
- Mitochondria are rod-shaped organelles that can be considered the power generators of the cell, converting oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Ribosomes
- A ribosome is basically a very complicated but elegant micro-‘machine’ for producing proteins.
Lysosome
- Lysosomes break down cellular waste products, fats, carbohydrates, proteins, and other macromolecules into simple compounds
Cytosol
- Cytosol is the intra-cellular fluid that is present inside the cells.
Centrioles
- a granular mass that serves as an organizing center for microtubules.
Microvilli
- The microscopic microvilli effectively increase the surface area of the cell and are useful for absorption and secretion functions.
Microfilaments
- In association with myosin, microfilaments help to generate the forces used in cellular contraction and basic cell movements.
Microtubules
- Microtubules are involved in nucleic and cell division
Peroxisome
- Peroxisomes contain a variety of enzymes, which primarily function together to rid the cell of toxic substances.
Nuclear Envelope
- The nuclear envelope surrounds the nucleus with a double membrane with multiple pores to let in and out strands of DNA and RNA.
Nucleus
- The nucleus is a highly specialized organelle that serves as the information processing and administrative center of the cell.
Nucleolus
- It is the site of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) transcription, pre-rRNA processing and ribosome subunit assembly
Intermediate Filaments
- Intermediate filaments are a very broad class of fibrous proteins that play an important role as both structural and functional elements of the cytoskeleton.
