Study Notes
Cell Biology
- Cell biology is the study of the structure, composition, and function of cells.
Learning Objectives
- Identify and describe the different cell components and organelles.
- Understand the general functions of these components and organelles.
- Explain the relationship between structure and function.
- Recognize the cooperation between different components to perform specific functions.
Cell Components
Cytosol and Organelles
- Cytosol is the basic substance of the cytoplasm, containing various organic and inorganic materials.
- Cytoplasm includes all organelles and other non-living components.
- Organelles are active metabolic structures that can be classified into membranous and non-membranous organelles.
Examples of Membranous Organelles:
- Cell membrane
- Rough endoplasmic reticulum
- Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
- Golgi apparatus
- Lysosomes
- Endosomes
- Mitochondria
Examples of Non-Membranous Organelles:
- Ribosomes
- Centrioles
- Microtubules
