ANP 1105 Chapter Notes - Chapter 1: Endoplasmic Reticulum, Catalase, Mitochondrial Matrix
Document Summary
Metabolism: includes all chemical reactions that occur within body cells- regulated by hormones secreted by endocrine glands. Homeostasis: ability to maintain relatively stable internal conditions in a changing environment. Summarization of major organelles and structures found inside a cell. As its broken down, some energy released is captured and used to attach phosphate groups to. Adp forming atp: complex: contain their own dna, rna, ribosomes, and can reproduce themselves. When they are complete they are enclosed in vesicles and sent to golgi apparatus for further processing. Its ribosomes manufacture all proteins secreted from cells and integral proteins and phospholipids of the pm: smooth er: tubules arranged in a looping network. Its enzymes catalyze reactions to: metabolize lipids; synthesize steroid-based hormones; absorb, synthesize and transport fats; detoxify drugs; and break down glycogen to form free glucose. Peroxisomes: spherical membranous sacs containing powerful enzymes (especially important are catalases and oxidases, oxidases use o2 to detoxify harmful substances (such as alcohol).
