1.a. The organelles labelled Y are called Ribosomes, They are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. The ribosomes make proteins for use in the cell and hold together all components of protein synthesis. The endoplasmic Reticulum spreads all through the cytoplasm and has a large surface area for the attachment of many ribosomes. Also newly synthesised proteins are stored and packaged into vesicles. 1.b. Structure X is called a nuclear pore (A sophisticated entry and exit control system that allows
rough endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes can be classified as free floating and bond ribosomes. Free floating ribosomes stay in the cell. Bond Ribosomes make proteins that are exported from the cell. Bond ribosomes are stuck to the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes are used as energy and food for the cell. They can be packaged and exported to different parts of the cell. The rough endoplasmic reticulum makes proteins that are packaged and exported from the cell. The rough endoplasmic reticulum

P1: Outline the functions of the main cell compounds What is a cell? Cells are the basic building blocks of all living things. The human body is made of millions and billions of these tiny little cells. These tiny little cells which doesn’t look like it can do much plays a big role in our bodies, It is what helps provide a good structure to our bodies, aids in converting nutrients from the food we eat into energy, and all have their own individual functions. There are many different types of cells
For many year, scientists have been researching and experimenting to understand how life on earth began and what was the turning point. Many studies and research were done in order to answer this question. After many years of research, scientists finally discovered the essence of life to be the cell. In order to consider something alive, the cells in the organism should be able to grow, reproduce, have the ability to process information, and carry out chemical reactions (Freeman 1). Even though cells
Cells The average person’s body contains 37.2 trillion cells (Jones, et al 446-457). Each cell fulfills a specific role within the body to help maintain the overall life and function of an individual. There is a conjoint configuration that can be found throughout most animal cells. Each part of a cell with its specific role is known as an organelle (Mader, Windelspecht 47). The plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, cytoskeleton, and other organelles are all essential parts of an animal cell (Mader
Cells are some of the smallest organisms around. All living things consist of cells, and yet they are invisible to the naked eye. Cells are the basic structural and functional units of life. Cells are made up of many different parts which allow them to function properly. All cells are separated from their surrounding by a cell membrane. The cell membrane regulates what enters and leaves the cell and also aids in the protection and support of the cell. A cell membrane is similar to the walls surrounding
A Comparison of Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cells There are two main types of cells in the world. The simplest cells such as bacteria are known as Prokaryotic cells, and human cells are known as Eukaryotic cells. The main difference between each of these cells is that a eukaryotic cell has a nucleus and a membrane bound section in which the cell holds the main DNA which are building blocks of life. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. The chromosomes which are found in prokaryotes are usually
The Golgi complex's structure is made up of many flattened membranes sacs that are surrounded by tubules or vesicles. These are called the cisternae. The golgi complex accepts vesicles from the endoplasmic reticulum and modifies them for usage in the cell. The golgi complex is used to distribute materials which help form the cell membranes. They also assemble the membranous material by producing glycolipids and glycoproteins. The golgi complexes also hand their vesicles materials for secretion. The
Intracellular transport Science has advanced tremendously in the last decade or so, specially in the field of cellular genetics. Even with such great advancements many scientists find that intracellular transport is a rather complex cellular process that requires parts such as a dynamic cytoskeleton, and molecular motor protein, which are myosin, kinesin, and dynein. In addition, intracellular transport involves the movement and selecting of vesicles and proteins to particular cellular regions.
Structure The structure of Golgi apparatus is composed of semi-circular and flattened stacks of membrane-bound disc known as cisternae and these stacks of cisternae divide into three regions, cis face, medial and trans face. Cis-face is near endoplasmic reticulum and it mainly receives (or fuse with) the vesicles containing products from ER and synthesize and process to send them off through trans face which is located near plasma membrane and medial Golgi apparatus is between them. Plasma membrane

Intro- Submarines are a lot like cells in a multitude of ways. Both are organized into many parts and without them both would fall apart. Each has specific parts that do certain jobs. They both also have a way of functionality that depends on whether the other parts inside work or not. Within a cell and a submarine it’s easily seen that both are broken into almost exact structures placing key parts in areas close to each other allowing maximum functionality. Cell Wall-Shell of Sub.The cell wall
doesn’t contract like muscles do. The digestive system of the human body is made up of several organs that work together to break down food so it can be used in the body. Similar organelles in the cell are endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, and the golgi body. Endoplasmic reticulum is used in the synthesis of molecules entering the cell. The ribosomes produce protein and send them to the places in the cell that needs it. The golgi body is the “packaging siteâ€. All three of thes organelles
Eukaryotic Cells The cell may be regarded as the basic unit of an organism, it carries out the essential processes that make the organism a living entity. All cells share certain structural and functional features and they are of almost universal occurrence in living organisms. Biologists have devoted a great deal of attention to its structure and the processes that go on inside it. They have recognised a major distinction between two types of cells, Eukaryotic cells that have a nucleus
The main lipids components of the cell membrane are the sphingolipids, cholesterol, and other phospholipids. The most predominant element of the sphingolipid molecule in the cell membrane is sphingomyelin, which is composed of a hydrophilic phosphorylcholine headgroup and a highly hydrophobic ceramide molecule. The ceramide group in sphingomyelin composed from amide ester of the sphingoid base D-erythro-sphingosine and a fatty acid of C16–C26 chain length. The lateral association of sphingolipids
Animal cells are eukaryotic cells, a more complex cell that possess a nucleus that contains all genetic information (DNA). In addition to the nucleus, animal cells contain many other tiny cellular structures that perform specific functions called organelles. Although the animal cell’s organelles work as a team in order to maintain a normal cellular operation, they difference in size, shape, function, and composition. Furthermore, each organelle has its own membrane, composed of a lipid and protein
It is separated from the rest of the cell by a double membrane (envelop), which has pores to allow the movement of substances in or out. For example, messenger RNA passes out of the nucleus during protein synthesis. (Clamp, 2000, pg. 102) Endoplasmic reticulum is a system of membranes found in the cytoplasm of a cell. The ER provides a very large surface area for chemical reactions within the cell. It also acts as a pathway for

I believe my twelve years of academic research expertise in the fields of cancer biology and oncology drug discovery makes me uniquely suitable for the position. I obtained my Ph.D. in micro/molecular biology from the Nickerson laboratory at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where I investigated pathogenic fungi Candida albicans morphogenesis, and host-fungal
Lysosomes are specialized vesicles, which are located inside eukaryotic cells; they contain digestive enzymes that break down any unknown material that goes within the cell. The actual name “lysosome” means releasing body, the enzymes it produces causes lysis otherwise known as disintegration. These enzymes are mainly used to break down any bacteria that the cell intakes or to break down any part of the cell that is worn out. The enzymes found in the lysosome are so potent, that if they were released
