The document provides an overview of cellular structure and function. It discusses that cells are the basic unit of structure in the human body, and there are trillions of cells that vary in size and shape depending on their function. The major parts of a typical cell are the nucleus, which contains DNA; cytoplasm between the plasma membrane and nucleus; and the cell membrane, which is a selective barrier. Different organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, and lysosomes are contained within the cytoplasm and have specialized functions. The document also describes various cellular processes such as transport mechanisms, the cell cycle, and cell division.

Cell Structures and Functions In pathology.pptxVictory120660
Cell structure and function are fundamental to understanding biology. Here's a broad overview:
1. **Cell Structure:**
- **Cell Membrane:** Acts as a barrier, controlling the passage of substances in and out of the cell.
- **Cytoplasm:** Gel-like substance within the cell where organelles are suspended.
- **Nucleus:** Contains genetic material (DNA) and controls cell activities.
- **Organelles:** Structures within the cell with specific functions, such as mitochondria (energy production), endoplasmic reticulum (protein synthesis), Golgi apparatus (protein packaging), and lysosomes (digestion).
2. **Cell Function:**
- **Metabolism:** Cells carry out metabolic processes to maintain life, including energy production, nutrient breakdown, and waste removal.
- **Reproduction:** Cells can reproduce through processes like mitosis (cell division) or meiosis (reproductive cell division).
- **Homeostasis:** Cells maintain a stable internal environment by regulating processes like temperature, pH, and nutrient levels.
- **Communication:** Cells communicate with each other through chemical signals, allowing coordination within tissues and organ systems.
- **Differentiation:** Cells specialize into different types with specific functions during development, forming tissues and organs.
- **Response to Stimuli:** Cells can respond to external stimuli, such as light or chemicals, through processes like movement or changes in gene expression.
Understanding cell structure and function is crucial for comprehending biological processes at all levels, from the functioning of individual organisms to the interactions within ecosystems.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Introduction
• The basic organizational
structure of the human body is
the cell.
• There are 50-100 trillion cells
in the human body.
• Differentiation is when cells
specialize.
• As a result of differentiation,
cells vary in size and shape
due to their unique function.
4. 4
Cell Membrane
(aka Plasma Membrane)
• Outer limit of the cell
• Controls what moves in and out of the cell
• Selectively permeable

• Water-insoluble “tails” form interior (hydrophobic)
• Permeable to lipid-soluble substances
• Cholesterol stabilizes the membrane
• Proteins:
• Receptors
• Pores, channels and carriers
• Enzymes
• Self-markers
6. Cell Membrane
Electrochemical Gradient
• due to selective
permeability
• difference in
concentration of
chemicals across
membrane
• difference in
distribution of
charges across
the membrane
• difference is the
membrane
potential
8. 8
Cytoplasm
• Cytosol = water
• Organelles = solids
Cytoplasm is really like a Jello fruit
salad where the Jello is the cytosol and
the fruits (oranges, grapes, bananas,
maybe walnuts, etc.) are the
organelles.

27. Secondary Active Transport
• uses the energy stored in a concentration gradient
– the gradient is established through active transport
• symporters move substances in the same direction while
antiporters move substances in opposite directions
32. 32
Interphase
• Very active period
• Cell grows
• Cell maintains routine functions
• Cell replicates genetic material to prepare for nuclear
division
• Cell synthesizes new organelles to prepare for
cytoplasmic division
• Phases:
• G phases – cell grows and synthesizes structures other
than DNA
• S phase – cell replicates DNA
33. 33
Mitosis
• Produces two daughter cells from an original somatic cell
• Nucleus divides – karyokinesis
• Cytoplasm divides – cytokinesis
• Phases of nuclear division:
• Prophase – chromosomes form; nuclear envelope
disappears
• Metaphase – chromosomes align midway between
centrioles
• Anaphase – chromosomes separate and move to
centrioles
• Telophase – chromatin forms; nuclear envelope forms

3.5: Control of Cell Division
• Cell division capacities vary greatly among cell types
• Skin and blood cells divide often and continually
• Neuron cells divide a specific number of times then cease
• Chromosome tips (telomeres) that shorten with each
mitosis provide a mitotic clock
• Cells divide to provide a more favorable surface area
to volume relationship
• Growth factors and hormones stimulate cell division
• Hormones stimulate mitosis of smooth muscle cells in uterus
• Epidermal growth factor stimulates growth of new skin
• Tumors are the consequence of a loss of cell cycle control
• Contact (density dependent) inhibition
