PHGY 214 Lecture Notes - Lecture 16: Lysosome, Cytoskeleton, Adenosine Triphosphate
Document Summary
Collects simple molecules and turns them into more complicated ones. They store the vesicles (which was created from the complex molecules) for later use or they send them out of the cells. Lysosomes are broken off from the golgi apparatus. It could be any size or shape (that relys on the cells) A similar structure is the secretory vesicle. Perioxisomes cleanse anything that could be toxic to the cell. Mitochondria is known as the cell"s personal powerhouse. It creates a high-energy compound named adenosine triphosphate. Mitochondria is made of two membranous layers. It keeps dna, this allows it to reproduce where and when necessary. The nucleus has complete and total control of the cell. Inside the nucleus there"s an area called the nucleolus, it stores rna and proteins in the nucleus. They are a strong protein substance that created the internal skeleton called the cytoskeleton. Some microtubules are used to make centrioles and mitotic spindles.
