Definition
- occurs in humans
- damaged organelle or small amount of cytosol is surrounded by a double membrane, of unknown origin, and a lysosome fuses with the outer membrane of this vesicle. Then lysosomes dismantle material and organic materials return to cytosol for reuse.

Definition
- found in plants

|
Term
|
Definition
- inside of the cell membrane

|
|
|
Term
|
Definition
- consists of the ER, golgi apparatus, and lysosomes
- the collection of membranes inside and around a eukaryotic cell, related either through direct contact or by transfer or membranous vesicles.
|
|
|
Term
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) |
|
Definition
- ER lumen- internal, continous and connected to nuclear envelope
- Rough ER: ribosomes bounded to it, particular make proteins that are inside membranes and ones that are destined to be released by themselves, proteins are transported to other parts of the cell through transport vesicles, proteins get glycosylated in the lumen of the rough ER, the membrane factory for the cell
- Smooth ER: lack of ribosomes gives it the smooth appearance, synthesis of lipids and steroid hormones, oils. Detoxification of poison such as alcohol, by adding hydroxyl groups making it more soluble. storage for calcium

Endosymbiotic theory of origin of Eukaryotic cells |
|
Definition
bacterial-like organisms infected and then took up residence in the ancestor of the eukaryotic cell. After a few million years these bacterial invaders turned into mitochondria and chloroplasts. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Secretory proteins that have carbohydrates covalently bonded to them. Carbs attached to proteins in ER by specialized molecules built into ER membrane. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Products of the ER are modified, stored, and then sent to other destinations, for example proteins. Has flattened membraneous sacs that look like pita bread stacked that separate cytotsol from internal space. vesicles transfer material. structural polarity. cis- recieve vesicles, and trans releases vesicles, cis located near the ER. produce polysaccharides. enzymes modify products |
