functional unit of living

organisms

living things and carry out

activities that keep living

alive.

8
New cards

Cell membrane

cytoplasm

nucleus

Three main parts of the cell are:

9
New cards

Cell membrane

separates the internal contents

of the cell from its environment.

It is a phospholipid bilayer

with proteins embedded in it.

10
New cards

Cell membrane

Semi permeable

11
New cards

the cell

12

substances in and out of the

cell

Maintains homeostasis

13
New cards

homeostasis

the ability of a living organism to maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in external conditions

14

cytoplasm

dito nadidissolve yung mga organic materials and also calcium ion, sodium, potassium

17
New cards

cytoplasm

Various metabolic reactions like protein

synthesis and breakdown of sugar into

ATP take place in the cytoplasm.

18
New cards

cytoplasm

Other organic materials are found in the

Centrioles, cytoskeleton, and plastids

are the specialized organelles in the

19
New cards

nucleus

is the third main part of the

cell. It is generally oval in

shape, covered with a nuclear

membrane or envelope

20
New cards

nucleus

the control center of the cell

21
New cards

glucose; Amino acid, nucleic acid, fatty acid

organic materials that are found in cytoplasm

nucleus

regulates and coordinates all activities in the cell

23
New cards

nucleus

24
New cards

nucleus

present in all cell except red blood cells and sieve tube cells

25
New cards

nucleus

Dense spherical body located near the centre of the

cell.

26
New cards

nucleus

Undeveloped in bacteria and blue-green algae

(cyanobacteria)

Most of the cells are uninucleated. (having only one

nucleus)

Few types of cells have more than one nucleus

(skeletal muscle cells

27
New cards

uninucleated cell

having only ine nucleus

28
New cards

skeletal muscle cells

few types of cell having more than one nucleus

29
New cards

chromosomes

are found in the nucleus.

Within the chromosomes are

DNA that make up the gene

that bears the hereditary

traits.

30
New cards

organelles

To be able to perform its

function, the cell

contains cytoplasm

structures called

31
New cards

Mitochondria

are the sites for the

breakdown of sugar

molecules into

adenosine

triphosphate or ATP,

which is the main

source of energy in

the body

32
New cards

Mitochondria

power house of the cell

33
New cards
34
New cards

Ribosomes

are the sites of protein

synthesis. The coded message

from DNA as to what kind of

protein is to be synthesized is

carried by the mRNA from the

nucleus to the ribosome.

35
New cards

DNA

Deoxyribonucleic acid

36
New cards

mRNA

messenger ribonucleic acid

37
New cards

ATP

Adenosine Triphosphate

38
New cards

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Transports of proteins, lipids

39
New cards

Endoplasmic Reticulum

consists of flattened sheets, sacs,

and tubes of membranes that

extend throughout the cytoplasm of

eukaryotic cells

40
New cards

Golgi apparatus

system of flattened, membranebound sacs that looks like stack of

pancakes is the

41
New cards

Golgi apparatus

modify, sort, and pack

macromolecules for secretion or for

transport to other organelles

42
New cards

Camillio Golgi

Golgi apparatus is discovered by

43

5-8

Golgi apparatus is formed by ___membranous sacs

44
New cards

cisternae

47
New cards

is also produced by the Golgi

apparatus. It is a membrane

bound organelle that comes in

various sizes and shapes.

Lysosomes contain numerous

hydrolytic or digestive enzymes

for the breakdown of

carbohydrates, proteins, and

fats within the cell.
