Chapter 4.5, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
To argue:
Against a proposal given by a candidate that the mitochondria and chloroplast should be classified in the endomembrane system.
Introduction:
Mitochondria are membrane bound organelle which is also known as “power house of the cell”. It is present in almost all cells except RBCs. The structure of mitochondria includes outer and inner membranes made of lipid and proteins. The chloroplast is a lens shaped in structure and enveloped in membranes called as stroma which contains DNA, ribosomes and enzymes. Flat and connected sacs known as thylakoid are present in units known as granum which contains chlorophyll. The chlorophyll captures the sunlight and converts and stores it in the form of ATP.

- Q1. You are required to design a carbon-based, eukaryotic, unicellular organism that contains membrane-bound organelles that match those on Earth. Describe specific structures and components that you would include in the cell wall, plasma membrane and internal cell membranes of your cell that would assist the cell's survival in the low temperatures and high pressure experienced on Kepler-28d.

(200 words maximum) Answer here: Q2. It is critical that your cell contains the capacity to transport and traffic cellular components both intracellularly and extracellularly. To facilitate this you will need to develop an endomembrane system. Outline the function of the endomembrane system, including which organelles will be included within your endomembrane system.

Foyez Samar The volume enclosed by the plasma membrane of plant cells is often much larger the c corresponding volume in animal cells. The most regsengble explanation for this observation Is that A) plant cells are capable of having a much higher surface-to-volume ratio than animal cells. B) plant cells have a much more highly convoluted (folded) plasma membrane than animal cens. C) plant cells contain a large vacuole that reduces the volume of the cytoplasm. D) animal cells are more spherical, whereas plant cells are elongated. 12 A uarrow_forward

- Describe.arrow_forwardLet’s model mitosis. Focus on drawing the cell nucleus taking care to model the number and location of chromosomes. Although the chromosomes are only visible in each stage, draw them in all stages for clarity sake. Draw a 2n=4 cell at G1 of interphase. Draw the same cell at the start of prophase. Draw the same cell at metaphase. Draw the cell(s) that result at the end of cytokinesis.arrow_forwardMolecular Transport Across Membranes Workshop How does the cell membrane control movement of materials? The cellular membrane is critical to the maintenance of homeostasis in living organisms. The cell membrane separates the cell from the external environment and plays a critical role in regulating movement of material in and out of the cell. Additionally, eukaryotic cells are made complex by the presence of internal membranes that form organelles, so the cells may become specialized. These organelle membranes create compartments within the cell that can do specific functions. For this exercise, you will work in groups of four to progress through the activities. At the end of each activity, one group (chosen at random) will share how they responded and open the floor for further discussion.
