cells Flashcards
principle parts of cell
- plasma membrane
- cytoplasm
- organelles
- nucleus
- seperates from external environment of the cell
- selectively permeable
- communication
plasma membrane
- fluid part of cell
- little organs that do the functions
cytoplasm and organelles
contains DNA and directs cell activities
nucleus
6 types of membrane proteins
- ion channel
- carrier
- receptor
- enzyme
- linker
- cell identity marker
ion channel function
forms pore which specific ions can flow through
carrier membrane protein
transports a specific substance acrodd membrane by undergoing change in shape
receptor membrane protein
recognizes specific ligand and alters cells function in some way
enzyme
catalyzes reaction inside or outside cell.
linker
anchors filaments inside and outside the plasma membrane
cell identity marker
distinguieshes cells from anyone elses
steps of mitosis
interphase prophase metaphase anaphase telophase
- chromosomes become visible
- nuclear membrane & necleolus dissapear
prophase
chromosomes line up in center of cell and have attached spindle fibers
metaphase
centromeres split and chromatids on opposite sides
anaphase
