Definition
| proteins that lie on only one side of the membrane and are not embedded in it. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| functions primarily as an intracellular highway, a pathway for moving from one part of the cell to another. |
|
|
Term
| two types of ER (endoplasmic reticulum) |
|
Definition
Rough ER (interconnected flattened sacs covered with ribosomes) smooth ER (lacks ribosomes) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Small spherically shaped sacs that are surrounded by a single membrane. They are classified by their contents. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1.proteins are assembled by ribosomes on the rough ER 2.vesicles carry proteins from the rough ER to the Golgi apparatus 3.proteins are modified in the Golgi apparatus and enter new vesicles 4.some vesicles release their proteins outside the cell 5.other vesicles remain in the cell and become lysosomes and other vesicles |

Term
| How do prokaryotes differ from eukakryotes? |
|
Definition
Prokaryotes lack a nucleus and membrane bound organelles. Prokaryotes have a nucleoid. Prodaryotes lack an internal membrane system. |
|
|
Term
| How do plant cells differ from animal cells? |
|
Definition
Plant cells produce a cell wall. Plant cells contain a large central vacuole. Plant cells contain plastids which are not found in animal cells. |
