Intro to Anatomy and Physiology pt. 2

lesson 1

CellS

  • Cells are complex structures, much like a miniature city.

cells

mEMBRANE

  • The membrane is like the "wall" around our cells
  • The cell's membrane serves as the protective layer.

Mitochondria

  • Mitochondria are the "power plants" of our cells
  • Mitochondria obtains it's energy from the food we eat.
  • The fuel it uses is called glucose, a type of sugar.

lysosomes

  • Lysosomes are the "policemen" of the cities that are our cells.
  • Lysosomes also break down chemicals inside the cells.

Golgi

  • Golgi are the "grocery stores" of our cells.
  • These Golgi bodies sends nutrients to parts of the cell.

Endoplasmic reticulum

  • The endoplasmic reticulum is like the "delivery" and "garbage trucks" of our cells.
  • The ER delivers chemicals throughout the body and disposes of waste.

Centrioles

  • Centrioles are the "mothers" of our cells.
  • Centrioles make more copies of cells in our bodies.

The Nucleus

  • The Nucleus is like the "government" of our cells.
  • The nucleus is the largest organelle.
  • DNA and RNA are found in the nucleus.
  • Inside the nucleus is another ball called the nucleolus.

Dna

  • DNA is like a "book" written about your body.
  • Genes are like the "words" inside your book.
  • Your DNA is special just for you and decides everything about you.
  • Almost every cell in the body has DNA.

RNA

  • RNA copies some of the DNA's information and delivers it to the ribosomes.
  • The ribosomes read the information from the RNA and make the protein needed.

Cell Creation

  • All of the cells in your body are copies of your first cell.
  • Cell copies start to differentiate to create other types of tissue.
