Study Notes

Characteristics of Amoeba

Uni-cellular organism
Has pseudopodia
Eukaryotic cell

Characteristics of Yeast

Eukaryotic cell
From the Fungus Kingdom
Used in food and medicine (e.g., Penicillium is used as an antibiotic and in cheese making)

Functions of Endoplasmic Reticulum (Rough)

Has ribosomes
Protects the cytoplasm
Helps in the synthesis of proteins and their transportation

Functions of Endoplasmic Reticulum (Smooth)

Lacks ribosomes
Involved in the synthesis of lipids
Involved in the synthesis of glycogen

Functions of Mitochondria

Act as main power generators
Contain respiratory enzymes
Rich in calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg)

Functions of Golgi Apparatus

Found in tooth enamel
Involved in the formation of primary lysosomes
Processes, modifies, and packages proteins and lipids produced by the endoplasmic reticulum, directing them to their final destinations within or outside the cell
