Structure and function of organelles Components Animal Cells

example animals cell

What's that animals?, animal cells never heard of this cell is not, of course, very often you heAr it. Definition of the cell itself is the smallest unit that makes up a living organism. So what animal cells? Animal cell is the smallest unit that make up living organisms, especially the animal itself. Do animal cells have structures as well as other cell? of course animal cells also have the components of a cell or cell organelles. As if part? let's check it out.

Structure and function of organelles Components Animal Cells
1. The plasma membrane: what is it?, the plasma membrane before have you heard ?, surely you often hear but difficult to expose. Membrane plasma is a substance that is semi permeable (certain substances that can pass through the plasma membrane), the life, and the size is very thin. While the chemical composition of the plasma membrane consists of an outer layer and in the form of protein molecules, whereas in the middle there is a fat molecule.

Then if the plasma membrane has a function in accordance with its role? okey .. The following are some of the functions of the plasma membrane itself, among others, as follows:

1. the plasma membrane serves to control the exchange of substances between the cell contents with the surrounding environment.
2. The plasma membrane serves as a protective cell contents itself.
3. Plasma membrane function in regulating the entry and exit of molecules present in the cell itself.
4. Plasma membrane functions as a receptor (receiver) stimuli from outside the cell, thus helping to accelerate the process of stimulation.

2. Endoplasmic reticulum: an organelle Component Structure and Function of Cells Animal second. Then if the endoplasmic reticulum? The endoplasmic reticulum is a lipoprotein membrane and cytoplasm membrane located between the cores with the cytoplasm membrane. The existence of the end membrane system, which resembles a lumen, is formed tunnels that connect with the outside of the cell nucleus, or some sort of connecting pipe between the two.

Endoplasmic reticulum, divided into seraph? certainly many who are not already familiar with this one RE. Endoplasmic reticulum was divided into two kinds, anything? Namely RE and RE coarse or finely granular. What are the rough ER and smooth ER? see explanation below.

1. Rough or granular RE that when the surface of the ER membrane is attached ribosomes so that it looks barbital-nodule or warts. RE rough also constitute the protein produced by the ribosome itself. Protein produced into the cavity of the RE itself.
2. Smooth ER is RE when the ER membrane is not attached ribosome’s so that it looks smooth or somewhat slippery. In the cells of the gland contains more RE than cells not glens.

How it functions both ER? in general, the function of the ER such as transportation necessary substances outside the cell nucleus of the cell nucleus, thus simplifying the performance of the cell itself.

3. Golgi body: whether the Golgi apparatus? Nash... biology scientific name is also often popping up but many of us who cannot recall, for it needs to be discussed here. Golgi body is shaped pile of bags flat very complex and on the inside of the bags is contained small spaces or called vacuoles. While membranes in the Golgi body is formed of lipoproteins. Golgi body is found in many cells of glands such as salivary glands, glands liver, pancreas gland, and also to the hormone.

Does the Golgi apparatus also have a function? okay .. Golgi body itself functions as follows:

1. Golgi apparatus serves as the organ secretion, because release substances that are needed by the cell in the form of secretions in the form of granules sap in animal cells.
2. Golgi apparatus serves to form the active enzyme is not (zymogens / progeny) in animal cells
3. Golgi apparatus serves to form glycoprotein (cumin / mucus / phlegm) in animal cells.
