  1. CELL PHYSIOLOGY CELLS ARE THE BASIC UNIT OF LIFE

  2. CELL ORGANELLES Mitochondrion Nucleus

  3. CELL ORGANELLES • Cell Membrane • Nucleus • Endoplasmic reticulum • Golgi complex • Mitochondria • Lysosomes • Microfilaments and microtubules • Vesicles

  4. THE NUCLEUS • Site of DNA (In chromosomes) • Enclosed by a membrane

  5. DNA REPLICATION • The double helix “unzips” • New bases pair up with the old ones • The molecule replicates itself • Two identical copies each with one old strand and one new

  6. RNA TRANSCRIPTION • Messenger RNA “copies” from DNA • m-RNA caries the message to the rough ER

  7. ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM • Fluid filled membrane system • Rough ER: Protein Synthesis • Smooth ER: Synthesis of Lipids

  8. Rough ER : Site of Protein Synthesis • Rough ER contains ribosomes • M-RNA attaches to ribosome • A triplet of bases is a Codon • Transfer RNA has an anticodon at one end and the appropriate amino acid at the other • As the code is read, amino acids are assembled into a protein

  9. ER -> Golgi -> Secretion

  10. Exocytosis • Vesicles fuse with the membrane • They open to the outside and discharge their contents

  11. MITOCHONDRIA • Extract Energy from Food Fuels • Energy is stored in ATP • Aerobic Metabolism

  12. Anaerobic Metabolism • Sugar can be burned without oxygen - anaerobically • Far more energy released from burning sugar aerobically • Glycolysis is anaerobic-carried out in cytosol • Glucose ----> 3 Carbon fragments plus 2 ATP

  13. Aerobic Metabolism • Pyruvic Acid (3 C fragment) enters Mitochondria • Combines with Coenzyme A loosing a CO2 and becoming Acetyl Coenzyme A (2 C fragment) • This fragment enters a cyclic reaction scheme, the Citric Acid Cycle • Ultimately, 34 more ATP’s are produced

  14. THE CYTOSKELETON • Microtubules • Microfilaments • Intermediate Filaments • Microtubular Lattice
