Semiautonomous organelles: animal cell, mitochondrion, plant cell, chloroplast. Cytoskeleton: tublin, tublin dimer, microfilaments (actin, protein, intermediate filaments, hold nucleus in place, cross-beam like support. Types of cellular movement: the cell itself moves, the cell changes shape. Movement: motor protein moves, microtubules act like railroad tracks, use gtp to run them, specific proteins go in specific directions, some move via atp, filament moves. Cell shape is related to function: diverse cell types, red blood cells, shape allows for transportation of gases in body, multinucleated muscle cells, packed with actin & myosin. Tissues and organs: a tissue is a collection of cells that work together to perform a specific function, somatic cells exactly same dna. Basic tissue types: 4 general types of tissue, muscle, skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, nervous cells, epithelial, line hallow organs, connective tissue, extracellular matrix, fibroblast, change w/time. Basal lamina: epithelial cells would die without basal lamina, ex.
