This document summarizes key components and functions of the cell, including its membrane, organelles, cytoskeleton, transport mechanisms, and energy production. The cell membrane is a bilayer of phospholipids and proteins that regulates what enters and exits the cell. Organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, mitochondria, and nucleus have specialized functions like protein synthesis, modification and transport, digestion, and energy production. The cytoskeleton comprises microtubules, microfilaments, and intermediate filaments that give cells structure and enable movement.
