It synthesizes lipids, phospholipids as in plasma membranes, and steroids. Cells that secrete these products, such as cells of the testes, ovaries, and skin oil glands, have an excess of smooth endoplasmic reticulum.]]> 2022-09-15 13:15:39 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298248737 Golgi apparatus https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298250673
Structure: This is made of 5-8 folds called cisternae. The cisternae contain specific enzymes creating five functional regions which modify proteins passing through them in a stereotypical way.
Function: modifies proteins and lipids that it receives from the endoplasmic reticulum. These biochemicals leave the golgi by exocytosis before being delivered to different intracellular or extracellular targets.]]> 2022-09-15 13:16:39 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298250673 Flagellum https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298251786 Structure - hairlike protrusion. Three structural elements: basal body, hook, filament

Function - movement and chemotaxis (chemical reaction/stimulus) 

Other info - Bacterial, archaeal and eukaryotic cells. Can be just one or multiple flagella]]> 2022-09-15 13:17:15 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298251786 Ribosomes are made from both RNA and protein and is an intercellular structure. It’s main function is to create protein for the cell. https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298251827 2022-09-15 13:17:16 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298251827 Mitochondria https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298255054 •double-membrane bound organelle found in most eukaryotic organisms 
•known as the powerhouse of the cell
•produce the energy needed for a cells survival and functioning
•breaks down glucose into energy for cell function
•tubular shaped with a matrix, inner and outer membrane, DNA, ribosomes and cristae. ]]> 2022-09-15 13:18:54 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298255054 mitochondria https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298255239 structure - an outer membrane, inner membrane, gel-like matrix which fills spaces in between cells. 

function - mitochondria generate the majority of chemical energy needed to power biochemical reactions by converting the energy from the food we eat. ]]> 2022-09-15 13:19:00 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298255239 Cilia https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298257426 Structure
Cilia is microtubules covered in plasma membrane. The microtubules are small hollow rods made up of tubulin, which are proteins.
They have a structure known as an axoneme, which is made up of 9 pairs of microtubules that form a ring shape and 2 microtubules in the middle.

Function
Cilia helps with movement. They help to move the cell itself and other substances that go past. They can also help to get rid of contaminants by moving them over the cell.]]> 2022-09-15 13:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298257426 Lysosomes https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298257566 Specific function: breakdown cellular wastes/debris by engulfing it with hydrolytic enzymes. 
Sphere-shaped sacs filled with hydrolytic enzymes with the capability to breakdown many types of biomolecules. ]]> 2022-09-15 13:20:08 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298257566 Microfilaments https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298259542 2022-09-15 13:21:12 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298259542 Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298263587 Has ribosomes on it which are small organelles whose functions it is to make proteins.
Its function is to proteins for the rest of the cell to function.
Inside Eukaryotic cells
Ribosomes help with production, folding, quality control and despatch of some proteins. ]]> 2022-09-15 13:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298263587 Cytoskeleton 💀 ns09770645 https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298263964 2022-09-15 13:23:36 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahdickson2/lh9v0gtxy0sfcz0d/wish/2298263964
