What is a subcellular structure?
a subcellular structure is simply structures within a cell. They are smaller than a cell and commonly means within a cell. They are individual components of a cell that when put together forms a complete cell. Subcellular structures can only be seen by an electron microscope, either SEM or TEM microscopy. Examples of subcellular structures are organelles ("little organs")- Golgi apparatus, smooth+rough endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus and mitochondria.
What is the term used for subcellular structures having characteristics forms and functions?
An organelle is a subcellular structure that has a specific function.
Are membranes a subcellular structure?
Membranes are subcellular structures. Some examples of this subcellular structure include; plasma membranes, nuclei, mitochondria, ribosomes, chloroplasts, and lysozymes to name a few.
Can you clearly see the membrane as a structure?
Yes, the cell membrane can be seen clearly as a structure. The cell membrane is called the plasma membrane and is a barrier between the cell and its environment.
What is the structure that surrounds a cell and controls what enters and leaves the cell?
The structure that controls traffic to and from the cell is the plasma membrane. It is not to be confused with the cell wall, which serves more to give structure to the cell.
What are the molecules that give the cell membrane a mosaic structure?
protein molecules in the cell membrane gives the mosaic structure .
What is a subcellular when the sentence isdirects proteins to different subcellular destinationsin a science review?
Organels within the cell (within the cytoplasm)
How does the structure of the organelle affect its function?
subcellular organelles are organelles contained within a cell. Each has a specific structure that corresponds with its function. The Golgi Apparatus, for example, has a structure resembling bags or balls. This helps it serve out its function as the shipping and sorting center. One end acts as a recieving point and the other acts as a shipping center while the middle sorts. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum's membrane is covered in ribosomes, perfect for its function of making proteins. etc.
Which structure regulates passage of molecules into and out of cells?
The cell membrane is a membrane separating the inside of the cell from the outside environment. This structure is also known as the plasma membrane or the cytoplasmic membrane.
What type of macromolecule makes up most of the membrane structure?
What is the type of macromolecule that makes up most of the membrane structure?
What is the structure and function of peroxisome?
A peroxisome is a subcellular structure (organelle) found in both plant and animal (including human) cells.StructureA peroxisome is only about 1 micrometer in diameter. It is bounded by a typical cellular membrane, consisting of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins.FunctionsPeroxisomes contain enzymes for a number of metabolic processes. In particular, they break down unwanted lipids (by beta-oxidation) and also hydrogen peroxide, a toxic by-product of the lipid breakdown.
What is the structure of transport?
membrane phospolipids
