    Study Notes

    Cell Structure and Function

    • The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, acts as a semi-permeable barrier that regulates the movement of materials in and out of the cell.

    Cellular Respiration

    • The mitochondria is the organelle responsible for generating ATP energy through cellular respiration.

    Vesicles and Vacuoles

    • Vacuoles are membrane-bound organelles that store and transport materials, helping to maintain cellular homeostasis and recycle cellular waste.
    • Vesicles are small, membrane-bound sacs that facilitate the transportation and storage of molecules within the cell.

    Protein Synthesis

    • The main job of cells is to synthesize proteins, which are essential for various cellular functions, growth, and maintenance.

    Lysosomes

    • Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes, breaking down and recycling cellular waste and foreign substances, maintaining cellular health.
