plant cell labeled diagram

Definition of plant cell Plant cells are eukaryotic cells, that are found in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae which means they have a membrane-bound nucleus. They have a variety of membrane-bound cell organelles that perform various specific functions to maintain the normal functioning of the plant cell. Structure of Plant cell Generally, … Read more Plant cell- definition, labeled diagram, structure, parts, organelles

Mitochondria- Structure and Functions

Mitochondria Definition Mitochondria are oxygen-consuming ribbon-shaped cellular organelles of immense importance floating free throughout the cell. They are known as the “powerhouse of the cell” since these organelles supply all the necessary biological energy to the cell by oxidizing the substrates available. The enzymatic oxidation of chemical compounds in the mitochondria releases energy.  Since mitochondria … Read more Mitochondria- Definition, Structure, Functions and Diagram

Isolation of Mitochondria from Cell Culture

Isolation of Mitochondria from Plants, Yeast Cells, Mice, Cell Culture Mitochondria are central organelles controlling the life and death of the cell. They participate in key metabolic reactions, synthesize most of the ATP and regulate a number of signaling cascades, including apoptosis. Investigating functional mitochondria that have been isolated from different tissues and from cultured … Read more Isolation of Mitochondria from Plants, Yeast Cells, Mice, Cell Culture

Extranuclear Inheritance

Extranuclear Inheritance- Cytoplasmic Factors and Types Though, the genes of nuclear chromosomes have a significant and key role in the inheritance of almost all traits from generations to generations, they altogether cannot be considered as the sole vehicles of inheritance. Certain experimental evidences suggest the occurrence of certain extranuclear genes or DNA molecules in the … Read more Extranuclear Inheritance- Cytoplasmic Factors and Types
