Document Summary
Dna contains code for producing moleculels mitochondria needs to generate energy. Centrioles: a pair of cylinder structure at right angles to each other, from & organize microtubules during assembly of mitotic spindle durin cell division, form cilia & flagella. Vaults: shaped like hallow octagonal barrels, serve as cellular trucks for transport from nucleus to cytoplasm, dock at or enter nuclear pore to pick molecules synthesized in nucleus & deliver cargo elsewhere in cell. Nucleus-to-cytoplasm transport: may carry ribosomal subunits, vaults play role in drug resistance. Excess converted into storage forms: non-permanent storages are called inclusions, important storage is fat. Fat droplets present in cytosol: glycogen is storage of glucose. Liver & muscle have high glycogen storage: glycogen & fat storages are broken down to release molecules for synthesis of energy, vesicles from er & golgi also remain in cytosol until signaled.
