Cell Structure and Types
This page introduces the main components of cells and distinguishes between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
The Components of a cell doodle notes study guide PDF begins by illustrating various cell organelles and their functions. It covers essential structures such as the nucleus, cytoplasm, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, vacuoles, lysosomes, Golgi body, cytoskeleton, chloroplasts, mitochondria, and cell membrane.
Vocabulary: Cytoplasm is the fluid inside the cell that holds organelles.
Highlight: The cell membrane, also known as the phospholipid bilayer, is selectively permeable, allowing only certain substances to pass through.
Example: Chloroplasts capture energy from the sun and convert it into food, containing a green pigment called chlorophyll.
The guide provides a clear visual representation of these components, making it an invaluable tool for students studying cell biology.
