    Study Notes

    Microfilaments

    • Thick filaments are composed of myosin

    Ribosomes

    • Free ribosomes function in synthesizing proteins that are released into the cytosol
    • Attached ribosomes function in synthesizing proteins that are inserted into membranes or exported from the cell

    Cytoplasm and Cell Shape

    • Microfilaments (actin filaments) give structural support to the cytoplasm and shape the cell

    Centrioles

    • In non-dividing cells, centrioles are located near the nucleus and are involved in the formation of cilia and flagella
