Study Notes
Cell Structure and Function
- Nucleus: Central organelle that regulates all cellular activities, acting as the control center for the cell's functions and genetic material.
- Cytoplasm: A gel-like substance within the cell membrane, providing a medium for biochemical reactions and supporting cell structure.
- Cell Membrane: Protective layer that governs the movement of substances in and out of the cell, maintaining homeostasis.
- Chloroplasts: Organelles responsible for photosynthesis, converting sunlight into chemical energy to produce food for the plant.
- Vacuole: Large, storage organelle in plant cells that holds nutrients, waste products, and helps maintain turgor pressure.
- Cell Wall: Rigid outer layer found in plant cells, providing structural support and protection, and helping maintain shape.
