oval or disc shaped‚ depending on the type of cell. Nucleus‚ also known as “the brain” of the cell‚ contains most of the genetic material of the cell‚ called DNA‚ and is responsible for controlling the cells function. The nucleus is the largest organelle. It occupies 10% of the total volume of the cell. The large structure of the nucleus‚ allows it to maintain more information and genetic material. The nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear envelope‚ made up of a double membrane which controls what

existence of cell organelles within the cell structure‚ allowing the function of the cell itself to occur; It was necessary to increase magnification by utilising an alternate source radiation (alternate to light).The result was the electron microscope‚ whereby the short wavelength and negative charge of electrons when supplied with energy allowed for greater focusing with electromagnetism. This method bends the path of the beam in the manner of a lens to light. Cell Organelles and the variation

ANIMAL CELL MODEL ORGANELLE FUNCTIONS Cell membrane: Separating the interior of the cell from the outside environment‚ the cell wall is selectively permeable‚ only letting certain things through. It is involved in a variety of cellular processes‚ such as cell adhesion and cell signalling. Cytoplasm: The fluid that fills the cell‚ cytoplasm uses its dissolved enzymes to break down larger molecules. The products can then be used by the organelles that are suspended in the cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton:

[pic] Cells and Their Organelles The cell is the basic unit of life. The following is a glossary of animal cell terms. All cells are surrounded by a cell membrane. The cell membrane is semipermeable‚ allowing some substances to pass into the cell and blocking others. It is composed of a double layer of phospholipids and embedded proteins. Color and label the cell membrane tan. Plant cells have an additional layer surrounding them called the cell wall. The cell wall is made of nonliving

Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles‚ such as the nucleus‚ while prokaryotic cells do not. Differences in cellular structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes include the presence of mitochondria and chloroplasts‚ the cell wall‚ and the arrangement of chromosomal DNA. Prokaryotes were

Glycogen and insulin are the hormones in the body that helps regulate the blood levels sugar and glucose in the body. Glucagon works in such a way that it counterbalances the actions of insulin. It takes approximately four to six hours after eating‚ for the glucose level in the blood to decrease‚ which causes the pancreas to produce glucagon. The hormone signals the muscle cells and liver to change the stored glycogen back into glucose. Glycogen and insulin always work together to balance the blood

Insulin Resistance “Insulin resistance is a silent epidemic that increases the chance diabetes and heart disease” according to the insulin resistance and pre-diabetes article; the causes and treatments are confusing and not always effective. According to Gerald Reaven‚ M.D.‚ Sixty to Seventy-five million Americans have insulin resistance; however‚ they do not know it. The endocrinology system is still a mystery to most average Americans today. They are not well-informed between the differences
