How to learn biology diagrams
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For example this is the diagram you have to learn so you can learn it like-
Each cell has a protective outer layer (plasma membrane) , so the cell only lets some certain things or nutrients into the system that it needs but keeps other things out (semipermeable).
Inside the animal cell there is the digestive system (cytoplasm), in the digestive system there is the working organs (organelles).
Tiny grains floating inside the system are called (ribosome) where protein is made.
The cell also has a DNA (nucleus) that contains all are genetic information the DNA is found on structures of the cell (nucleus) called chromosomes .
The nucleus is surrounded by a layer or cover (nuclear membrane) which controls what goes in and out.
Rough ER is a series of folded protective outer layer (membrane) rough ER is always spotted with the tiny grains floating around the system (ribosomes). Together the ribosomes and rough ER make new proteins and protective layer (membranes) that the system or cell needs.
While smooth ER is the opposite, it has vehicles which are used to move things around the digestive system (transport vesicles).
Now there is another working organ which helps in packaging up things, to be transported around cells or need to leave the cell like hormones (Golgi Apparatus).
Now comes lysosomes, lysosomes are both the vitamin c and the decomposer of the cell. It kills the bacteria that invades the body and it also break downs the THINGS that cell doesn 't need.
Vacuoles are large membranous sacs used to store things. While vesicles are smaller sacs.
Mitochondria is the powerhouse that breaks down sugar (ATP) which helps the cell get energy .

Drawing together our information for the cereal aleurone system (Figure 18.11), we can hypothesize that binding of bioactive gibberellin to GID1 leads to degradation of the DELLA protein.

Exit for Two
We all begin as one cell which divides into two – but for an embryo to advance further in development, a so-called jumping gene MERVL needs to be rapidly switched off. MERVL is known to be controlled by a factor called Dux, but how Dux is regulated and affects exit from the two-cell stage was unclear. Now, researchers have discovered that the cell’s nucleolus plays a role in regulating Dux. The nucleolus (pictured; DNA in cyan, nucleolus compartments in various colours) is part of our cell’s headquarters – the nucleus – and responsible for making our protein-making factories called ribosomes, and not commonly associated with gene regulation. By disrupting the nucleolus, Dux quickly re-activated, leading to increased levels of MERVL keeping the embryo stuck at the two-cell stage. Not only does embryonic exit from the two-cell stage require genes, like MERVL, to be switched off, the embryo also requires a functioning nucleolus to advance.

In biology, what is the function of ribosomes in cells?
Ribosomes are structures found in cells that play a critical role in the process of making protein. These tiny organelles are responsible for reading the genetic code stored in the DNA and translating it into proteins that perform various functions in the body.
The ribosomes are made up of two subunits, each of which contains RNA (Ribonucleic acid) molecules and a variety of proteins. They work together to decode the genetic information stored in the messenger RNA and use it to create a chain of amino acids, which eventually folds into a functional protein.
Despite their small size, ribosomes are incredibly important and have a significant impact on our health and well-being. Mutations in ribosomal proteins can cause a range of diseases, including cancer and genetic disorders. Understanding the structure and function of ribosomes is essential for developing new treatments for these and other diseases.

hamham - my sister making me feel physical pain while studying #1
dorci, the poor sod, has been studying for like 14 hours straight today, trying to get the process of protein synthesis summarized in a paper
she asked me to have a look at it and try to find any mistakes she might've made her first sentence can most accurately be translated from hungarian as follows: "the translation does require does ribosomes"
...i appreciated the attempt, but told her she might want to get some sleep and take a look through that again
