Cell Organelle # 1. Chloroplast: 1. Chloroplasts (Figs. 18, 19), responsible for the photosynthesis of the plants, are the characteristic features of the cells of green plants. 2. Around the [...]
The following points highlight the nine main organelles of cytoplasm. The Organelles are: 1. Endoplasmic Reticulum 2. Mitochondria 3. Plastids 4. Golgi Apparatus 5. Ribosome 6. Peroxisomes and Glyoxysomes 7. Lysosomes 8. Nucleus 9. Hydrogenosome. Organelle # 1. Endoplasmic Reticulum: The cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell consists of an elaborate network of double membrane system called the ergastoplasm, or endoplasmic [...]
The below mentioned article provides notes on elements of cytoskeleton. Cytoskeleton is shown to be present in both pro- and eukaryotic cells and are responsible for the stability of cell shape and different movements within and among the cells. Plasma membrane is associated with a cytoskeleton called 'membrane skeleton' and hence regulates several functions of the membrane. Basically cytoskeleton comprises [...]
