    Study Notes

    Cell Structures and Organelles

    • Chloroplast is not part of the endomembrane system, unlike Golgi Apparatus, ER, Plasma Membrane, and Nuclear Envelope.
    • Mitochondria are present in both plant and animal cells, crucial for energy production.
    • Ribosomes are found in prokaryotic cells, unlike ER, chloroplasts, mitochondria, and nuclear envelope.

    Structure-Function Relationships

    • The pair Microtubule; muscle contraction is mismatched, while others correctly align functions to structures.
    • Cyanide inhibits ATP production primarily within Mitochondria when cells are exposed.
    • Pathway for newly synthesized proteins destined for secretion involves ER -> Golgi -> Vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane.

    Cell Types and Organelles

    • Phagocytic white blood cells are ideal for studying lysosomes, which digest foreign materials.
    • Smooth ER lacks ribosomes and is less complex compared to Rough ER, which is ribosome-studded.
    • The volume ratio of typical eukaryotic cells to prokaryotic cells is approximately 1000:1.

    Cellular Respiration and Organelle Functions

    • Both plant and animal cells carry out cellular respiration to produce ATP; only plants have chloroplasts.
    • Products of the ER are modified as they transit through the CIS to TRANS region of the Golgi Apparatus.

    Cytoskeleton and Extracellular Structures

    • The cell cytoskeleton is dynamic, allowing for rapid reorganization and movement of components within the cell.
    • Extracellular structures, like plant cell walls, can transmit information to the cytoplasm, aiding in intercellular communication.

    Basic Cell Components

    • Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis, while vesicles transport materials and provide temporary storage for substances.
    • The nucleolus is the site for ribosome production, while the Golgi Apparatus packages proteins for export.

    Cell Wall Composition

    • Plant cell walls are made of cellulose, fungal walls of chitin, bacterial walls of peptidoglycan, and archaeal walls of pseudomurein.
    • Animal cells do not have a cell wall.

    Membrane Structure and Function

    • Eukaryotic cell membranes consist of unique proteins, and membranes vary in function and structure.
    • According to the fluid mosaic model, membrane proteins are embedded within a lipid bilayer and are not fixed in place.
    • Unsaturated phospholipids increase membrane fluidity, enhancing movement and flexibility.

    Transport Mechanisms

    • Passive transport encompasses processes including diffusion across membranes, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.
    • Changes in extracellular pH can influence transport rates, such as increasing sucrose transport by decreasing extracellular pH.
    • A red blood cell has hypertonic contents compared to distilled water, affecting water movement during osmosis.

    Osmosis and Diffusion

    • Water moves out of plant cells in concentrated salt solutions due to osmotic pressure.
