This document summarizes key aspects of cell physiology: - Cells are the basic structural and functional units of the body and come in many types like muscle, nerve, and blood cells. - The cell membrane encloses the cell and regulates what enters and exits. It is made of lipids and proteins arranged in a bilayer. - Organelles like the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and peroxisomes perform specialized functions inside the cell. - Mitochondria generate energy for cells through cellular respiration. The endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus help synthesize and transport proteins and lipids.
