    • The chapter focuses on cell structures and their functions.
    • Organelles are specialized structures in cells that perform specific functions, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, and ribosomes.
    • The cytoplasm is a jelly-like substance that holds organelles.
    • The cell membrane, also known as the plasma membrane, is the outermost component of a cell and forms a boundary between the inside and outside of the cell.
    • The cell is the smallest unit of life.
    • Cells are involved in cell metabolism and energy use, synthesis of molecules, communication, and reproduction and inheritance.
    • The cell membrane acts as a boundary between the inside and outside of the cell.
    • The cell membrane is also known as the plasma membrane.
    • The cell membrane is the outermost component of a cell.
    • The cell membrane forms a boundary between the material inside the cell and the outside.
