Cell Processes and Body Organisation Nucleus The nucleus is the largest‚ most prominent organelle‚ usually spherical and roughly about 10mm in diameter. Every eukaryote cell‚ with the exception of red blood cells due to their very specific function‚ has a nucleus. The nucleus’ function is to store DNA‚ it does so in two ways: One is tightly packed and this is called heterochromatin‚ this isn’t read. And the other is loosely packed‚ named euchromatin. Euchromatin is the actively read material

of a cell; cell membrane‚ nucleus‚ cytoplasm‚ mitochondria‚ endoplasmic reticulum (rough and smooth)‚ ribosomes‚ Golgi apparatus/complex and lysosomes. The cell membrane is a thin semi-permeable membrane that surrounds the cell. Its purpose is to hold the structure of the cell‚ protecting and enclosing all of the other organelles within it. The semi-permeable membrane enables substances to move in and out of the cell. The nucleus is like the brain of the cell. It is the biggest organelle in the

‘Discuss how cell organelles are structurally and functionally interrelated’ The Golgi body is a membrane bound organelle mainly found in eukaryotic cells. The Golgi body has two faces the cis face‚ where the substances enter from the RER for processing and the trans face‚ where they exit the RER in the form of tiny vesicles. (Davidson‚ M. (2004) Molecular expressions http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/cells/golgi/golgiapparatus.html) The rough endoplasmic reticulum is the site where most cell membrane

- controls all cell activity by directing which enzymes are made for specific functions - stores the genetic material of the cell (DNA) - directs the chemical reactions in cells by transcribing genetic information from DNA into RNA (called DNA replication) - DNA replication allows cells to transfer information from one cell to the next during replication. - Nuclear envelope is the gateway to the cell (also known as nuclear pores)and allows substances (such as vital proteins) to enter and exit

The Nucleus: In the kingdom the nucleus is the king. The nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle found in the center of the cell that contains all of the genetic information‚ and DNA and controls the rest of the cell. To the kingdom the nucleus is the king because of how he controls the kingdom and is responsible for the wealth of the town through his actions. Additionally not all cells have a nucleus. Just as not all kingdoms have a king. The Nuclear Envelope: The nuclear envelope is similar to

Describe the cell cycle. Include in your discussion the role cyclins and CDKs play in controlling this cycle. The cell cycle is a process that cells undergo to grow‚ reproduce‚ and divide to make 2 daughter cells. The cell cycle has different stages including G1‚ S‚ G2‚ and the M phase. Also we have the G0 phase. There are checkpoints that control the transitions between the phases of the cell cycle in which the process is regulated by cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). G1 is known as

Choice Is Your Choice How would you feel if you went to the store and you were told what to buy? What if you were told what to do? What if you had no choice in where to go or what to wear? How would you feel if these choices were limited to just two or three choices to choose from? In this day and age‚ the variety of choice has grown to almost limitless. This abundance of choice gives people the opportunity to be different. Individuality would mean nothing if we all wore the same clothes‚ ate the
