DESCRIPTION

The cell membrane is selectively permeable

to ions and organic molecules and controls
the movement of substances in and out of
cells.
Centrosomesa small region near the nucleus in the cell
cytoplasm, containing thecentrioles.
Cytoplasm- The cytoplasm comprises cytosol
(the gel-like substance enclosed within the
cell membrane) and the organelles the
cell's internal sub-structures. All of the
contents of the cells of prokaryote organisms
(such as bacteria, which lack a cell nucleus)
are contained within the cytoplasm
Golgi apparatus- an organelle, consisting of
layers of flattened sacs, that takes up and
processes secretory and synthetic products
from the endoplasmic reticulum and then
either releases the finished products into
various parts of the cell cytoplasm or
secretes them to the outside of the cell.
Lysosomes- One of the key organelles involved in
digestion and waste removal is
the lysosome.Lysosomes are organelles that
contain digestive enzymes. They digest excess or
worn out organelles, food particles, and engulfed
viruses or bacteria. Lysosomesare like the
stomach of the cell.
Microvillitiny hairlike folds in the plasma membrane that extend fr
om the surface of many absorptive or secretory cells. Th
ey aremost clearly visible with an electron microscope b
ut may be seen as a "brush border" with a light microsco
pe.

Mitochondria are known as the powerhouses of

the cell. They are organelles that act like a
digestive system which takes in nutrients, breaks
them down, and creates energy rich molecules for
the cell. The biochemical processes of the cell are
known as cellular respiration.
-All eukaryotic cells (those found in animals, plants,
protists, and fungi) have a control center called the

nucleus. This is where genetic material, or DNA, is

stored. Surrounding every nucleus is a doubleFUNCTION
-The basic function of the cell membrane is
to protect the cell from its surroundings. It
consists of the phospholipid bilayer with
embedded proteins.
-is performed by other cell organelles. They help in
regulating the cell cycle and are an integral part of
cell division by mitosis. They are made of centrioles
and a surrounding pericentriolar material (PCM).
The PCM is made up of proteins like tubulin,
pericentrin and ninein. The two centrioles are
located orthogonal to each other.
-The jelly-like fluid that fills a cell is
called cytoplasm. It is made up of mostly water
and salt. Cytoplasm is present within the cell
membrane of all cell types and contains all
organelles and cell parts.
- The main function of the Golgi apparatus is to modify,
sort and package the macromolecules that are
synthesized by the cells for secretion purposes or for
use within the cell.
-The functions of lysosomes concern the different ways
in which the enzymes contained within the membrane
(that defines and encloses the lysosome) affect other
materials, which can originate from either outside or
inside the cell.

- Microvilli are attached to the collections of cells

known as villi that extend from the tissue of the
small intestine. They work to dramatically increase
the amount of surface area available for the
digestive process.
- mitochondria is to produce energy. The simpler
molecules of nutrition are sent to the mitochondria to be
processed and to produce charged molecules. These
charged molecules combine with oxygen and produce
ATP molecules. This process is known as oxidative
phosphorylation.
- nuclear membrane is to separate the nucleus of a

cell from the cytoplasm that surrounds it. The

nuclear membrane, also called the nuclear

envelope, is defined as a membrane that surrounds
the genetic material contained within the nucleus of
a cell. The nuclear membrane is made up of the
inner and outer membranes, the lamina and pore
complexes
layered membrane called the nuclear
membrane or nuclear envelope.
-any of numerous structures with complex
openings in a nuclear membrane which allow
passage of molecules between the nucleus
and surrounding cytoplasm; any of the
numerous perforations in a nuclear
membrane which allow materials to flow in
and out
- The nucleolus is a round body located inside the
nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. It is not surrounded by
a membrane but sits in the nucleus.
The nucleolus makes ribosomal subunits from
proteins and ribosomal RNA, also known as rRNA.

- Nuclear pores are protein-based channels

in the nuclear envelope. They regulate the
movement of molecules from the nucleus
to the cytoplasm, and vice versa. In most
eukaryotic cells, the nucleus is enclosed by
this nuclear membrane in order to
separate it from the cytoplasm.

- Its main function is to rewrite ribosomal

RNA (rRNA) and combine it with proteins.
This results in the formation of incomplete
ribosomes. There is an uninterrupted chain
between the nucleoplasm and the interior
parts of the nucleolus, whichoccurs
through a system of nucleolarpassages.
These passages allow macromolecules with
a molecular weight up to 2,000 kDato be
easily circulated throughout the nucleolus.
