Answer:

Cell membrane:  provides protection for a cell

cytoplasm : acts as a buffer and protects the genetic material of the cell

nuclear membrane : serves to separate the chromosomes from the rest of the cell

nucleus : The nucleus controls and regulates the activities of the cell

chromatin : They act as packaging elements for the DNA

nucleolus : function is RNA synthesis and ribosome biogenesis

Ribosome : decoding the message and the formation of peptide bonds

vacuole : vacuoles help maintain water balance

lysosome : They break down excess or worn-out cell parts

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum :  Its main function is the synthesis of lipids, steroids, and carbohydrates, as well as the metabolism of exogenous substances, such as drugs or toxins

Rough endoplasmic reticulum : its function is to produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function

mitochondria : generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions

golgi body/ apparatus : organelle that helps process and package proteins and lipid molecules, especially proteins destined to be exported from the cell

Explain the role of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins in the cell membrane.
koban [17]

Lipids provide structure - allow the selective diffusion. Proteins provide structure - involved transport - involved in cell adhesion. Carbohydrates are involved in cell recognition - receptor complexes.

<h3>What is the function of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins in the cell membrane?</h3>

The cell membrane is composed of a lipidic bilayer, cholesterol, proteins, and glucans incrusted in between.

⇒ Lipids

  • Phospholipids are amphipathic molecules.

  • They have hydrophilic heads facing the exterior and the interior of the cells and hydrophobic tails that arrange against each other in the interlayer space.

  • Lipids can easily change places with other lipids by lateral diffusion  and transversal diffusion.

  • Their function is to provide structure to the membrane and allow the diffusion of some selected small molecules.

⇒ Cholesterol

These lipidic molecules play a significant role in membrane formation and structure. They are embedded in the membrane in between phospholipidic tails.

⇒ Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates are significant energy store molecules.

Carbohydrates get attached to lipids and proteins on the outer side of the membrane (glycolipids and glycoproteins).

Complexes protein-carbohydrate are used to identify and differentiate the cell and work as receptors.

Carbohydrates are also involved in cell adhesion.

⇒ Proteins

  • Among the proteins, we can find integral proteins and peripheric proteins.

Integral proteins are permanently associated with the membrane. They accomplish many different functions such as substances transport, cellular receptors, and cellular adhesion, among others.

According to how they are incrusted in the lipidic bilayer, integral proteins might be,

→ Transmembrane proteins ⇒ they cross the two lipid layers of the cell membrane.                       

→ Monotypic integral proteins ⇒ they can be found tied to one of the lipidic layers.

Integral proteins provide structure to the plasmatic membrane.

Periferic proteins are in the internal or external surface but not incrusted in the membrane.

In conlusion,

  • Phospholipids are the basic elements of the cell membrane. They are arranged in two layers, and thanks to their motion properties, they allow passive transport (diffusion) of some substances.

  • Proteins provide structure, are involved in facilitated and active transport, and are involved in cell adhesion.

  • Carbohydrates are involved in cell recognition and in receptor complexes.
