1 4.15 Chloroplasts convert solar energy to chemical energy
ENERGY-CONVERTING ORGANELLES 4.15 Chloroplasts convert solar energy to chemical energy Chloroplasts are found in plants and some protists Chloroplasts convert solar energy to chemical energy in sugars Chloroplast Stroma Inner and outer membranes Granum Intermembrane space Figure 4.15

2 4.16 Mitochondria harvest chemical energy from food
Mitochondria carry out cellular respiration This process uses the chemical energy in food to make ATP for cellular work

3 MITOCHONDRION Outer membrane Intermembrane space Inner membrane
Cristae Matrix Figure 4.16

4 THE CYTOSKELETON AND RELATED STRUCTURES
4.17 The cell’s internal skeleton helps organize its structure and activities A network of protein fibers makes up the cytoskeleton Figure 4.17A

5 Microfilaments of actin enable cells to change shape and move
Intermediate filaments reinforce the cell and anchor certain organelles Microtubules give the cell rigidity provide anchors for organelles act as tracks for organelle movement

6 INTERMEDIATE FILAMENT
Tubulin subunit Actin subunit Fibrous subunits 25 nm 7 nm 10 nm MICROFILAMENT INTERMEDIATE FILAMENT MICROTUBULE Figure 4.17B

7 4.18 Cilia and flagella move when microtubules bend
Eukaryotic cilia and flagella are locomotor appendages that protrude from certain cells A cilia or flagellum is composed of a core of microtubules wrapped in an extension of the plasma membrane

8 Electron micrograph of sections:
FLAGELLUM Electron micrograph of sections: Outer microtubule doublet Plasma membrane Flagellum Central microtubules Outer microtubule doublet Plasma membrane Basal body Basal body (structurally identical to centriole) Figure 4.18A

9 Clusters of microtubules drive the whipping action of these organelles
Microtubule doublet Sliding force Dynein arm Figure 4.18B

10 4.19 Cell surfaces protect, support, and join cells
EUKARYOTIC CELL SURFACES AND JUNCTIONS 4.19 Cell surfaces protect, support, and join cells Cells interact with their environments and each other via their surfaces Plant cells are supported by rigid cell walls made largely of cellulose They connect by plasmodesmata, channels that allow them to share water, food, and chemical messages

11 Walls of two adjacent plant cells
Vacuole PLASMODESMATA Layers of one plant cell wall Cytoplasm Plasma membrane Figure 4.19A

12 Animal cells are embedded in an extracellular matrix
It is a sticky layer of glycoproteins It binds cells together in tissues It can also have protective and supportive functions

13 Tight junctions can bind cells together into leakproof sheets
Anchoring junctions link animal cells Communicating junctions allow substances to flow from cell to cell TIGHT JUNCTION ANCHORING JUNCTION COMMUNICATING JUNCTION Plasma membranes of adjacent cells Extracellular matrix Figure 4.19B

14 4.20 Eukaryotic organelles comprise four functional categories
