    Study Notes

    Cell Membrane Function

    • Regulates the passage of substances in and out of the cell, acting as a selective barrier.

    Protein Synthesis

    • Ribosomes are essential for protein synthesis. They are responsible for translating genetic information carried by messenger RNA (mRNA) into proteins.

    Enzyme Function

    • Enzymes act as biological catalysts, accelerating biochemical reactions by lowering activation energy.

    Cytoskeleton Functions

    • The cytoskeleton is responsible for providing structural support, maintaining cell shape, and facilitating cell movement. It is NOT involved in protein synthesis.

    Mitochondria Function

    • Mitochondria are responsible for generating energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) through cellular respiration. This process utilizes glucose and oxygen to produce energy.
