Cell structures can be grouped by their function. Name the four groups of cell structures based on function and describe two organelles included in each group. What are the different types of cells in the body? Explain each in detail.
Plastids are a group of phylogenetically and physiologically-related organelles found in all types of plants and algae. In their roles, the different types of plastids contribute to plant metabolism thus promoting plant growth and development. One of the main characteristics of these organelles is the...
Endosomes are primarily intracellular sorting organelles. They regulate trafficking of proteins and lipids among other subcellular compartments of the secretory
What is a vacuole and what does it do?A vacuole is a structure found in animal, plant, bacteria, protist, and fungi cells.It’s one of the largest organelles found in cells, and it’s shaped like a large sac. Vacuoles have a simple structure: they are surrounded by a thin membrane ...
c. What are their functions? Describe the differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. What are the major organelles in a cell? What are their functions? Do all eukaryotic cells have only 1 nucleus? Explain. Describe the structures and functions of a eukaryotic cell and its organelles....
The 12,714 annotated contigs were classified into three GO categories: biological processes, cellular compo- nents and molecular functions. The most prominent GO Cellular Component categories (Level 3) were organelles (51%) (Fig. 3a). The most prominent Molecular Function (Level 3) were ...
formed by lipids. Phospholipids a type of lipid have their peculiar amphiphilic nature, with hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails. Phospholipids self-assemble into a bilayer in the cellular membranes' watery environment, creating semipermeable barriers that are walls around cells and their organelles....
Both plant and animal cells are classified as eukaryotic cells. This means that both cell types contain membrane-bound organelles that carry out different functions for the cell, and for the organism as a whole. Both plant and animal cells have a nucleus, which contains the genetic material n...
5.2.1. Mtor, Rapamycin and Autophagy During aging, increasing dysfunction related to a progressive failure of maintenance and repair pathways takes place as aberrant macromolecules, dysfunctional organelles and DNA damage may accumulate in cells and tissues [132]. Therefore, cellular maintenance ...
