New cards

toy sachs disease

genetic disorder: rare disease where children lack a vital enzyme that breaks down fatty acid materials

-lysosomal disorder

-harmful amount of lipids build up in tissues and nerve cells of the brain

-both parents must be carriers to result as alack of an enzyme

2
New cards

lysosomes

-have enzymes that digest different molecules

-digests intercellular waste

3
New cards

lysosomes are missing or faulty—》

《—lysosomal storage disease

-lysosome swells and crowds other organelles of the cell

i.e garbage man doesn’t come a the can overlfows

4
New cards

lipids

fats

5
New cards

dominant traits

traits are obvious, showing

6
New cards

recessive traits

traits are less expressed

7
New cards

mitochondria structure

cristae-inner membrane that folds inward

matrix-inner fluid

2 membranes

mitochondrial DNA only comes from the mother

8
New cards

mitochondria function

-takes energy from carbohydrates and converts it to useable energy for the cell

-makes useable energy through cellular respiration

-makes adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

9
New cards

Cellular respiration

C6H12O6 + O2 → CO2 H2O + ATP(energy)

chemical energy in carbohydrates are converted into ATP

ATP is often the form of energy in cells

10
New cards

plasma membrane

-regulates what enters and exits the cell

-separates the living contents of the cell from the external non-living environment

-protects the cell

11
New cards

plasma membrane structure

-integral and peripheral protein molecules are imbedded

-carbohydrate chains are attached to proteins

-phospholipid bilayer

12
New cards

phospholipid

hydrophilic head

hydrophobic tails

13
New cards

Nucleus func.

-store genetic information

-determines sequence of amino acids when protein is made

-stores chromatin (proteins and DNA) in the nucleoplasm(semi liquid

14
New cards

nucleolus

-darker region in the nucleus

-produces ribosomal RNA (rRNA)

-where rRNA joins w/ protiens to form subunits of the ribosome

15
New cards

ribosome

-site of protein synthesis

16
New cards

Nucleus structure

-nuclear envelope- double membrane that separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm

-outer membrane is continuous w/ the endoplasmic reticulum

-has nuclear pores that allow some proteins INTO and OUT OF the nucleus

17
New cards

cholesterol

stiffens and gives structure to the membrane

18
New cards

oxytocin

-“love“ hormone

-released in the positive feedback loop

-i.e child birth, lactation

19
New cards

rough ER

-continuous with the nuclear envelope

-ribosomes attached to it

-transports and synthesizes proteins

20
New cards

cytoplasm

holds organelles in place

21
New cards

vacuoles

stores H2O and waste

22
New cards

golgi body

packages, sorts, modifies proteins

23
New cards

ribosomes

main site of protein synthesis

24
New cards

smooth ER

make hormones and lipids

25
New cards

foreground

smooth ER

26
New cards

background

rough ER

27
New cards

vesicles

-transportation for protein for the golgi body

-like a dispatch centre

28
New cards

glycolipid

lipids with a carbohydrate attatched to it

29
New cards

glycoprotein

proteins with sugar chains

30
New cards

protein channel

allows water and certain ions to enter

31
New cards

cell theory

  1. all organisms are composed of one or more cells

  2. cells are the basic living unit of structure and function

  3. all cells come from pre-existing cells
