Document Summary

Contains most genes (others in mito and chloro) Nuclear envelope shields the escape of dna material. Nuclear lamina consists of filaments that maintain the shape of the nucleus. Undividing cells contain chromosomes in the form of chromatin, disorganized coils of. As a cell prepares to divide, these chromatin condense to become chromosomes. All human cells have 46 chromosomes, sex cells have 23 chromosomes. Nucleus directs protein synthesis through the use of mrna. Not considered organelles (not membrane bound) -> in charge of protein synthesis. Can be found in the cytosol or attached to endoplasmic reticulum or nuclear envelope. Bound ribosomes = proteins that are inserted into membranes, for packaging or. Free ribosomes = make proteins functionable in cytosol. Smooth er -> lipid synthesis, carb metabolism, detoxification of poisons, and storage. Rough er -> membrane factory, secretes proteins, transport vesicles. Sorts and packages materials into transport vesicles. Sac of hydrolytic enzymes that digest macromolecules.
