This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: cell as a unit of life, microtubules: thickest of 3 types. They shape and support the cell and serve as tracks along wich organelles equiped with motor proteins can move Two types centrosome: function as compression- resisting girders in the cytoskeleton, Eukaryotic two examples Animal cells, Cell as a unit of Life Parts of Cells Ribosomes: Particles made of ribosomal RNA. Carry out protein synthesis., centrosomes ???? centrosome: function as compression- resisting girders in the cytoskeleton, Transmission Electron used to see the internal ultrastructure of cells, Chromosomes: Make up DNA, and carry genetic information made of... Chromatin: a complex of proteins and DNA., Eukaryotic differences DNA chromosomes located in the nucleus. Has a true nucleus bounded bu a nuclear envelope., a network of fibers extending throughout the cytoplasm. plays a major role in... organizing the structues and activities of the cell, magnifications of images examples of light microscopy Brightfield (stained or unstained), prokaryotic diferences DNA is concentrated in the nucleoid, and no membarne seperates the region form the rest of the cell., mitochondria described as... sites of cellular respiration., Endoplasmic Reticulum: network of membranous tubules & sacs called cisterae. two types Smooth ER: its surface lacks ribosomes., Eukaryotic two examples plant cells, Cell as a unit of Life Parts of Cells chloroplasts, Cell as a unit of Life Parts of Cells Lysosomes: is membranous sac of hydrolytic enzymes that an animal cell uses to digest all kinds of macromolecules., taking cells apart and separating the major organelles from one another. how to do this... ultracentrifuge: can spin as fast as 130,000 revolutions per minute and apply high amounts of force on particles to break them up for study., Cytoskeleton described as... a network of fibers extending throughout the cytoplasm., plant cells diferent from animal cells by... have no lysosomes, centrioles, or flagella., Cell as a unit of Life Parts of Cells Vacuoles: carry out hydrolisis, Lysosomes: is membranous sac of hydrolytic enzymes that an animal cell uses to digest all kinds of macromolecules. lysosome membranes are made by the... Rough ER: contains ribosomes that stud the outer surface of the membranes.
