Organelles and their Functions

1. Nucleolus
   1. Manufactures ribosome RNA and assembles ribosomes.
2. Nuclear Envelope
   1. Controls exit and entry of materials in cell. Outer membrane continous with the endoplasmic reticulm
3. Nuclear Pores
   1. Passage of large molecules (MRNA) out of the nucleus
4. Chromatin
   1. DNA and assosiated proteins. Packages DNA into a smaller consistency.
5. Nucleoplasm
   1. Like cytoplasm and surround the nucleolus

      Nota:

      • Contains Enzymes and nucleotides

1. Stoma
   1. Enzymes for light and independant stages of photosynthesis
2. Grana/Thylakoids/amellae
   1. Light dependant stage of photosynthesis
3. Starch Grain
   1. Temporary storage of carbohydrates

1. Double membrane
   1. Inner membrane folded into cristae provides a large surface area.
2. Matrix
   1. Genetic infomation - DNA, enzymes and ribosomes

      Nota:

      • ATP - Energy currency
3. Site of krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation in aerobic respiration.

1. Smooth (SER)
   1. No ribosomes - tubular in appearance
   2. Synthesis, stoage and transport of liquids and carbohydrates
   3. Contains lytic emzymes

      Nota:

      • (e.i. liver cells)
2. Rough (RER)
   1. Membranes spreading through the sytoplasm of cells (continuous with the nuclear membrane)
   2. Enclosed flattened sacs are called listernae
   3. Provides LSA for synthesis of protein
   4. Provides a pathway for transport of material (protein) throughout the cell
   5. Surrounded by ribosomes

1. There is the small subunits and the large subunits

   Nota:

   • Subunits combine together and hold (m+t)RNA between them before taking them to where ever they are needed.
2. Two types
   1. 80S - Eukaryotic cells

      Nota:

      • An organism which contains a nucleus surrounded by a membrane 10-100 micrometers
      1. Metabolism - Aerobic
      2. Organelles - Protista, fungi, plants and animals.
      3. I am limited on my knowldge of these one
   2. 70S - Prokataryotic Cells

      Nota:

      • 'Pro' - Before 'Aryoyic' - Neucleus Cell size - 1-10 micrometers
      1. Heredity DNA is concealed here
      2. No membrane bound organisms
      3. Contais no nucleus

         Nota:

         • Some do contain a circular nucleus.
      4. Metaboblism - Anaerobic and Aeriobic
      5. Absence of 'true nucleus' is in bacteria and Blue green algae

         Nota:

         • Blue green Algae is also know as Cyanobacteria.
      6. Structures always present; Cell wall, plasma membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes and circular DNA.
3. Makes up 25% of dry mass cells
4. Important to proteins

   Nota:

   • Binds amino acids RNA messenger Transfers RNA

1. Modifies and packages protein
2. Adds carbohydrates to protein to form glycoproteins
3. Secretes carbohydrates
4. Transports, modifies and stores liquid

1. Stucture
   1. Tube shaped plasma membrane
   2. Nine pairs of microtubules within the plasma membrane
   3. Dynein arm in a circle around the microtubules

1. Hollow microtubules
2. Form spindle fibres for nuclear division
3. Involved with making cytoskeletons
   1. Made of protein and microtubules
   2. Move Chromosomes around in cell divison
   3. Move Vesicles

      Nota:

      • From the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi Apparatus

1. Made of cellulose
2. Supports cell
   1. Turgor pressure - Controls the moment in which the cell would burst due to the concentration of liquids becoming to much for the plasma membrane and cell wall to handle.

1. Seperates the innerds of the cell with the other things
2. Controls what enters and exits the cell.

   Nota:

   • For example; Osmosis. You need a semi-permiable mebrane for the water to be able to pass through the wall to level concentraion levels.

1. Where rections happen
2. Surrounds everything in cell but is surrounded by membrane

Nota:

• Animal cells only
• Me and my friend remember the function of this by naming it the 'bouncer' organelle of a cell.

1. Contains acid hydrolase enzymes which break down proteins
2. Digest worn out organelles, food and viruses
3. Glycosy

1. Tonoplast
   1. The 'Plasma membrane' of the vacuole
   2. Controls what enters and exits the vacuole
2. Sap/Liquid

   Nota:

   • Sap - PlantLiquid - Animal
