Essentials of Pathophysiology Porth
Nucleus - ✔✔ correct answer Brain and DNA of the cell
Ribosomes - ✔✔ correct answer Synthesize proteins and produce things for the cell to function
Mitochondria - ✔✔ correct answer Powerhouse of the cell
Lysosomes and Proteosomes - ✔✔ correct answer Digestive system for the cell
Cytoskeleton - ✔✔ correct answer movement and shape
Describe the Plasma Membrane - ✔✔ correct answer A lipid bilayer made of phospholipds with the head
being hydrophilic and the tail made of fatty acids being hydrophobic.
What is the function of the Plasma Membrane? - ✔✔ correct answer intra & extra cellular
communication, transports into and out of the cell, and maintain electrical activity that powers the cell.
The plasma contains three nutrients, what are they and explain each. - ✔✔ correct answer Proteins:
growth and repair.. ex:antibodies, enzymes, and horomones
Fats: stored energy and transmit nerve impulses and regualte parts of the body
Carbohydrates: supply energy ex: "glucose"
TRUE OR FALSE : Red blood cells start out with all organelles. - ✔✔ correct answer True.
What happens as RBC mature? - ✔✔ correct answer they lose their lysosomes, produce hemoglobin,
have smaller golgi bodies, and enlarged endoplasmic reticulum
What happens when RBC's are mature ? - ✔✔ correct answer they LOSE their endoplasmic reticulum
and lose their mitochondria
How does the transformation of the RBC relate to its function? - ✔✔ correct answer It makes it a self-
sufficient cell as it matures. When it is mature it doesnt require energy with has no metabolic activity.
