    Study Notes

    Function of a Cell

    • Cells serve as the basic structural and functional units of living organisms.
    • They perform vital processes such as energy transformation, reproduction, and communication.

    Characteristics of a Cell

    • Cells exhibit organization, being composed of various components that work together.
    • They have the ability to respond to stimuli, maintain homeostasis, and grow or develop.
    • Cells can reproduce, either sexually or asexually, contributing to genetic continuity.

    Types of Cells

    • Major types of cells include prokaryotic cells (e.g., bacteria) and eukaryotic cells (e.g., plant and animal cells).
    • Specialized cell types include neurons, muscle cells, and red blood cells, each adapted for specific functions.

    Organelle for Protein Synthesis

    • Ribosomes are the organelles responsible for synthesizing proteins by translating messenger RNA (mRNA).

    Function of Mitochondria

    • Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell, generating adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through cellular respiration.
    • They play a crucial role in energy metabolism and regulate cellular metabolism and apoptosis.
