Study Notes
Abdominal Cavity
- Contains the stomach, intestines, spleen, and liver
Cellular Respiration
- Occurs in the mitochondria
- Purpose is to produce ATP
Cell Membrane
- Integral proteins span the entire length of the membrane
- Peripheral proteins are found on the inner or outer surface of the cell membrane
Exocytosis
- Process of ejecting biomacromolecules from the cell
Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis
- Process of bringing in molecules into the cell using signaling molecules from another cell
Tay-Sachs Disease
- Impacts lysosomes
- Caused by the buildup of toxic lipids inside cells
- Symptoms include death or disability
- Results from a genetic disorder where the lysosomes lack a normal digestive enzyme
