Cell
Structural units of living things
Human cell have 3 main parts
Plasma membrane
Cytoplasm
Nucleus
Plasma membrane
Outer boundary of the cell
Bilayer is constructed mainly of phospholipid with small amount of cholesterol. Two types Of proteins: transmembrane and peripheral
Cytoplasm
Fluid packed with small structures that perform specific functions (organelle)
Nucleus
Controls cellular activities
The plasma membrane structure
Define the boundaries of the cell
Fluid mosaic model
Membrane is thin structure, composed of double layer or lipid bilayer, proteins form constantly change mosaic pattern
The plasma membrane function.
Membrane transport
Selective permeability
Nutrients must enter the cell - undersirable materials must be kept out
valuable cell proteins must be kept within the cell - waste must pass out the cell
What are the subtances pass through the cell membrane by?
Passive processes and Active processes.
Passive processes
Without energy input, also we have Diffusion, Simple Diffusion and Facilitated DIffusion.
Diffusion
Molecules diffusion “down their concentraction grandient”. That is going from high consentraction to low consentration.
Lipid bilayer of plasma membrane = barrier to free diffusion unless the molescules is 1) lipid-soluble, uncharge (nonpolar). 2) very small
Simple Diffusion
“Nonpolar and lipd-soluble” subtances diffuse directly through the lipid bilayer,
Subtnces include: Oxygen, Carbon dioxide, Fat-soluble vitamins, alcohol and store
Facilitated Diffusion
Polar and charged subtances are transported by proteins carrier molecules in the plasma membrane
subtances include: simple sugar (glucose), Ions (Na+,Cl-)
Osmosis
Diffusion of water (only) trough selctively permeable membrane
Occurs when concetractions differ on two side of the membrane.
Tonicity
Ability to a solution to change tone or shape of the cells by altering internal water volume.
Isotonic
Neutral, solutions with same consantraction of solutes as those in the cell (0.9% saline, or 5% glucose)
Hypertonic
Shrink, solution with higher concentralction of solute. solutions is going out of the cells
Hypotonic
Swell and burst, sloutions with lower concentraction. solutions is goin into the cells.
Active processes
Cell uses energy from (ATP) to move solutes across the membrane agains its concentranction grandient.
Active processes major mechanisms
Sodium-potasions Pumps, K+ potancium → 2 goins in → Na+ sodium → 3 go out
Exocytosis Vasicular transport
Moves subtances out of the cells. moves wastes out of vasicular cell.
Endocytosis Vesicular Transport
Allows paricules to enter the cells. somtimes involves receptors like Receptor-mediated endocytosis.
What kind of cell are out there?
Animal cell , plant cell, and human cell
Cell cycle
Set of stages during wich DNA double and divide into 2 genetically identical daugater cells. Cell division
Cell Division
Interphases = growth and prepare to divide.
Mitosis = nucleus divides followed by the cell itself.
The nucleus
Contral center of the cell, DNA = genetic library, Dictates kinds and amounts of protains to be synthesized
DNA - code to proteins
Ribosomes
Small particle made of protein and RNA, proteins factory, sites for protein synthesis
make proteins pumps membrane, signal, enzymes.
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Rough ER = have attached ribosomes for proteins production, a fall blacked
Smooth ER = no ribosomes synthesizes lipids. liver has this and they deal wirth lipids breaking down or deal with fat
Proteins Synthesis
Interphase, Transcription, and translation.
Interphase
the cell carries on regular activities
Transcription
RNA - polymerase = nucleutides
DNA to mRNA
Making copy or taking notes on the DNA → then pre-mRNA to the nuclediotide
Translation
Ribosome / mRNA to proteins
In here Ribosome read and translated to make aminno acid = proteins.
Nucleotides
Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Cytosine → transcription = RNA polymerase → Adenine, Guanine, Uracil, Cytosine → translation = ribosome → make amino Acid 20 different AAs.
Golgi Apparatus = FedEx
Stacked, flattened membranous stacks, principal traffic director for cellular proteins, major functions = modify, concentrate and packege proteins and membranes made at hte rough ER. Madesure that is delivery to where the proteins need to be.
Lysosomes
Contain digestive enzymes, Abundant in phagocytes, sites where digestion can proceed safely, where cell go tto die.
DNA replication
DNA polymerase
Resulting in two identical DNA double-strands
Mitosis
The devision of genectic material, during which the cell nucleus breaks down and two new, fully functional, nuclei are formed.
Prophase
1st phase = centrososmes moves toward opposites poles
Metaphase
2nd phase = the chromosomes are line up
Anaphase
3rd phase = centromeres split in to two
Telophase
4th phase = Chromosomes arrive at opposite poles and begin to decondense
Cytokinesis
Final pahses = when separates the daughter cell
Mitochondria
Power plants of the cell - provide most of the ATP supply, “powerhouse”. Density of mitochodria reflects cell’s energy requirement. Enclosed by two membrane. Contain its own DNA and RNA
Histology
Study of the body tissue
Tissues
are composed of specialized cells of similar structure and perform a common funtion.
Epithelial tissues
Cover outside and line inside body surfaces
cover/protect : absortion and some secreation
Mitotic
Readily divide to replace lost or damaged cells

contain fibers.
Areolar CT
Location: between tissue / organs
