What organelle takes raw materials and converts them to cell products?
This depends on the organism.Some unicellular Protists, like the Paramecium, can bring food particles inside the cell via food vacuoles. Digestive enzymes can then break down the food particles so that they may be utilized by the mitochondria as an energy source (cellular respiration converts the energy in food molecules into the cell's direct energy source, ATP).In animal cells, some raw materials may be taken up by endocytosis and the formation of a membrane bubble around the ingested particles; which may then fuse with another vesicle containing digestive enzymes; collectively called a lysosome at that point.
What are metabolic enzymes?
Metabolic enzymes are acidic proteins that exist in the mitochondria in every cell. Their function is to process ingested proteins and sugars into energy which your body will use to function or replicate cells.
What is the function of a ciliated simple columnar epithelium?
The function of simple columnar tissue is to provide protection against any bacteria that might be ingested. However, it is still permeable enough for necessary ions to enter.KKK
Golgi bodies use what to transport molecules out of cell?
Membrane bound vesicles.
What breaks down worn out organelles debris and large ingested particles within the cell?
Im not sure if this is the exact answer your looking for but its a right answer. lysosomes get rid of organelles that are not working or not working to their potential
Which nuclear decay particles would inflict the most tissue damage if ingested?
alpha particles
What is melanophage?
Melanophages are macrophages which have ingested (endocytosis) melanosomes or melanin. (Weiss et al, 1988; James et al, 1987; Cooper et al, 1986)
What does endocytosis look like?
the process of uptake of material into a cell via invagination of a portion of the cell membrane and budding off the membrane components into a vesicle (or endosome) containing the material that was ingested
What Is receptor mediated transport?
Endocytosis is the bulk transfer of materials from inside to outside of a cell with the help of special vesicles. Types of Endocytosis : 1) phagocytosis 2) potocytosis 3) receptor mediated endocytosis
Cells acquire LDLs by?
Low-density lipoproteins or LDLs are substances made up of fat and protein. Cells acquire LDLs through receptor-mediated endocytosis, wherein specific molecules are ingested into the cell.
In a cell, what is the function of the vacuole?
It removes waste, stores ingested food and provides cellular structure.
Is the function of a vacuole in a cell?
It removes waste, stores ingested food and provides cellular structure.
What are the differences between lysosomes and peroxisomes?
lysosomes break down materials ingested by the cell using hydrolytic enzymes at a pH of around 5. They also remove old cellular components and replace with newer ones. peroxisomes are responsible for the creation of hydrogen peroxide within a cell and are used to break down fats into usable molecules, as well as catalyze detoxification reactions in the liver. Another difference is that, unlike lysosomes, peroxisomes do not bud from the endomembrane system (golgi body and endoplasmatic reticulum), they grow by incorporating proteins and lipids made in cytosol.

When yeast and paramecia were together some of the yeast were ingested by the paramecia this activity is connected to which life function?
nutrition :)

Is toothepaste an acid?
partially, it has little particles of rock (microscopic) that take off the top layer of plaque. it has acidic chemicals that may cause damage if ingested.
