  1. 0:01Do you know the parts and functions of
  2. 0:04animal cells? In this BioEncyclopedia
  3. 0:07video, we will explain everything you
  4. 0:09need to know about this type of cell.
  5. 0:11Let's begin. What is an animal cell?
  6. 0:19The animal cell is the basic cell of
  7. 0:21living beings that are part of the
  8. 0:23kingdom Animalia. There are different
  9. 0:26types or specializations depending on
  10. 0:29the functions they must perform in each
  11. 0:32part of the organism, such as neurons
  12. 0:34in the nervous system, leukocytes in
  13. 0:36the immune system, and eggs and sperm
  14. 0:39in the reproductive system, among many
  15. 0:41others. And before we continue, we want
  16. 0:44to put you to the test. How many
  17. 0:46different types of cells do you think
  18. 0:48there are in a human being? A, about
  19. 0:50500. B, about 350. or C, about 200. Pay
  20. 0:57attention, as we will answer the
  21. 0:59question throughout the video. Let's
  22. 1:01continue. Animal cells are
  23. 1:03distinguished from plant cells by
  24. 1:05having a smaller diameter and by
  25. 1:07lacking a cell wall and chloroplasts.
  26. 1:11If you are interested in learning about
  27. 1:13plant cells, don't miss the video we've
  28. 1:14left in the card. Next, we will explain
  29. 1:18each part of the animal cell and its
  30. 1:20function. One, nucleus. The cell
  31. 1:24nucleus is its control center and is
  32. 1:26responsible for dictating the
  33. 1:27instructions for the correct
  34. 1:29functioning of many biological
  35. 1:31processes. It is a very important
  36. 1:34element, as it houses deoxyribonucleic
  37. 1:36acid, or DNA, which contains the
  38. 1:38genetic information that will be
  39. 1:40transmitted when other cells are
  40. 1:42generated. DNA bound to proteins forms
  41. 1:47chromatin, and upon condensing during
  42. 1:49cell division, it generates thread-like
  43. 1:52structures called chromosomes. The
  44. 1:56nucleus is an organelle, as it is
  45. 1:58located in the cytoplasm. It occupies
  46. 2:01up to 10%of the space inside the cell
  47. 2:03and is the largest component of the
  48. 2:06cell. Two, cell or plasma membrane. It
  49. 2:10is a thin layer that surrounds the
  50. 2:12cytoplasm and separates the cell from
  51. 2:13its environment. Its main function is
  52. 2:16to protect the cell from the outside
  53. 2:18and facilitate the exchange of
  54. 2:19materials. This membrane has pores or
  55. 2:23protein channels that connect the
  56. 2:25interior with the external environment
  57. 2:27and allow the entry of useful
  58. 2:29substances for nutrition and the exit
  59. 2:31of those that are waste. It is a
  60. 2:34semipermeable membrane. Its composition
  61. 2:38is characterized by the presence of a
  62. 2:40double layer of phospholipids with
  63. 2:42embedded proteins. It also plays a
  64. 2:45fundamental role in other important
  65. 2:47processes such as cell adhesion and
  66. 2:49cell communication, which allows for
  67. 2:51the exchange of information with other
  68. 2:53cells or tissues. The cell membrane
  69. 2:56uses four transport methods: one,
  70. 2:58passive osmosis and diffusion. Two,
  71. 3:01active transport. Three, endocytosis.
  72. 3:05and four, exocytosis. The cell membrane
  73. 3:08helps anchor the cytoskeleton, making
  74. 3:10it vital for maintaining the cell's
  75. 3:13shape and allowing it to be part of
  76. 3:15large cell arrangements, which gives
  77. 3:17shape to tissues. Three. Cytoskeleton.
  78. 3:21The cytoskeleton gives the cell its
  79. 3:23shape and maintains its structure. It
  80. 3:25is fundamental in the processes of
  81. 3:27endocytosis and cell division. In
  82. 3:30prokaryotic cells, the cytoskeleton is
  83. 3:33composed of microfilaments and
  84. 3:34microtubules. Four. Cytoplasm. The
  85. 3:38cytoplasm is all cellular material with
  86. 3:41the exception of the nucleus. It
  87. 3:44includes all organelles and the cytosol
  88. 3:46, a colorless, semi-liquid substance in
  89. 3:49which numerous molecules are found. It
  90. 3:53is in the cytoplasm where most cellular
  91. 3:56activities occur, including various
  92. 3:58metabolic pathways like glycolysis and
  93. 4:01processes like cell division. The
  94. 4:04cytosol is the part of the cytoplasm
  95. 4:07found outside the membrane-bound
  96. 4:09organelles and accounts for
  97. 4:11approximately 70%of the cell volume.
  98. 4:14Within the cytoplasm are the cellular
  99. 4:16organelles, which are the following.
  100. 4:19Five. Endoplasmic reticulum. It is a
  101. 4:23system of interconnected, flattened
  102. 4:25channels and sacs wrapped in a membrane
  103. 4:27. The production, storage, and
  104. 4:30transport of some substances take place
  105. 4:32in this organelle. It also provides
  106. 4:35internal support. Although the
  107. 4:38endoplasmic reticulum is present in
  108. 4:40most eukaryotic cells, it is not found
  109. 4:43in red blood cells or sperm cells.
  110. 4:46There are two types of endoplasmic
  111. 4:48reticulum: smooth and rough. Six.
  112. 4:52Ribosomes. Ribosomes are the organelles
  113. 4:55that synthesize proteins vital for many
  114. 4:57cellular processes. They are complex
  115. 5:01molecular machines found in all living
  116. 5:04cells. Their shape is spherical and
  117. 5:07they are formed by ribosomal RNA and
  118. 5:10proteins. These organelles can be found
  119. 5:14in two forms: free in the cytoplasm or
  120. 5:16associated with the rough endoplasmic
  121. 5:18reticulum membrane, where they perform
  122. 5:20their function of creating protein
  123. 5:22molecules by joining amino acids.
  124. 5:26Ribosomes follow the order specified by
  125. 5:29messenger RNA, which transfers the
  126. 5:31genetic code from nuclear DNA to
  127. 5:33indicate the order in which amino acids
  128. 5:36must be linked. Ribosomes have two
  129. 5:40parts. The small subunit, which is
  130. 5:43responsible for reading the RNA, and
  131. 5:45the large subunit, whose function is to
  132. 5:48join amino acids to create a peptide
  133. 5:50chain. Seven. Mitochondria.
  134. 5:54Mitochondria are the energy producers
  135. 5:56of the cell. They produce it through
  136. 5:59the process known as cellular
  137. 6:00respiration. It is where adenosine
  138. 6:03triphosphate is produced, a molecule
  139. 6:05that constitutes the main source of
  140. 6:08energy usable by the cell to carry out
  141. 6:10its functions. Mitochondria synthesize
  142. 6:14ATP from glucose, fatty acids, and
  143. 6:16amino acids. They do not have a defined
  144. 6:20structure, as they deform easily, but
  145. 6:22they are normally elongated. Beyond
  146. 6:25energy production, mitochondria are
  147. 6:28related to cell communication processes
  148. 6:30, cell differentiation, and apoptosis
  149. 6:33or programmed cell death. They also
  150. 6:36have control over the cell cycle and
  151. 6:38cell growth. The number of mitochondria
  152. 6:41in a cell varies widely. Mitochondria
  153. 6:45have several parts such as the outer
  154. 6:47mitochondrial membrane, the inner
  155. 6:49membrane, the intermembrane space, the
  156. 6:51matrix, and the cristae. Eight. Golgi
  157. 6:55apparatus. It receives proteins and
  158. 6:59lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum,
  159. 7:01and it is where the collection of all
  160. 7:03substances that the cell expels to the
  161. 7:05lysosomes or through the plasma
  162. 7:07membrane takes place. The Golgi
  163. 7:10apparatus completes the manufacture of
  164. 7:13some proteins and packages others,
  165. 7:15coating them in a membrane before they
  166. 7:17are sent to their destination, labeling
  167. 7:20these proteins to send them where they
  168. 7:22belong, both inside and outside the
  169. 7:25cell. Its main functions are protein
  170. 7:28modification, cell secretion, plasma
  171. 7:31membrane production, and lysosome
  172. 7:33formation. Nine. Lysosomes are
  173. 7:38spherical vesicles that contain
  174. 7:39hydrolytic enzymes that facilitate the
  175. 7:42assimilation of substances by making
  176. 7:44them smaller. Additionally, they are in
  177. 7:48charge of eliminating waste by
  178. 7:49digesting unwanted substances
  179. 7:51throughout the cytoplasm. Lysosomes
  180. 7:55protect the cell from foreign bodies
  181. 7:57like viruses and bacteria, and even
  182. 7:59digest parts of the cell that are
  183. 8:01discarded, such as organelles that are
  184. 8:03replaced. These organelles contain more
  185. 8:07than 60 different enzymes that come
  186. 8:09from the rough endoplasmic reticulum
  187. 8:11and serve to perform their functions of
  188. 8:13breaking down and digesting
  189. 8:15biomolecules. 10. Peroxisomes are
  190. 8:19organelles that house a large number of
  191. 8:22enzymes to dispose of peroxides that
  192. 8:24are toxic to the cell. Their main
  193. 8:27function is to break down long-chain
  194. 8:29fatty acids. In animal cells, these
  195. 8:33acids are converted into medium-chain
  196. 8:35fatty acids before being sent to the
  197. 8:38mitochondria to be converted into
  198. 8:40carbon dioxide and water. And 11. The
  199. 8:45centrosome is a pair of cylindrical
  200. 8:47structures coordinated and composed
  201. 8:49mainly of a protein called tubulin,
  202. 8:51which are called centrioles. Centrioles
  203. 8:55are involved in two processes: division
  204. 8:58and locomotion. Cellular movement. They
  205. 9:01are also related to the organization of
  206. 9:03the cytoskeleton. The centrosome is
  207. 9:06only found in the animal cell. And
  208. 9:09returning to the question we asked you
  209. 9:10before, have you thought about it
  210. 9:12carefully? The correct answer is C. In
  211. 9:14the human being, there are
  212. 9:16approximately 200 types of cells. Did
  213. 9:17you get it right? And that is all for
  214. 9:19today's video about the animal cell.
