Study Notes

Eukaryotic Cells

Typical feature: presence of a true nucleus, bound by a double membrane

Cellular Components

Endomembrane system: a network of membranous organelles responsible for protein synthesis, lipid synthesis, and detoxification

Centrioles

Found in animal cells, play a crucial role in the formation of cilia, flagella, and centrosomes
Involved in the separation of chromosomes during cell division

Nucleus

Control center of the cell, containing most of the cell's genetic material
Responsible for regulating gene expression, cell growth, and cell division

Plant Cells vs. Animal Cells

Distinguishing feature of plant cells: presence of a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole
