Inorganic ions (5) na+, k+, mg2+, ca2+, cl- Dna is not segregated within a defined nucleus (dna is just floating around: reactions take place in cell are not enclosed in internal membranes. Cytoplasm: has about 30 000 ribosomes (the site of protein synthesis), accounts for their granular appearance. Nucleoid: circular dna molecules not surrounded by a membrane separating it from the cytoplasm (which is the region lying outside the nucleoid) Dna is segregated within a defined nucleus. Contains extensive internal membranes that enclose specific compartments (the organelles) and separate them from the rest of the cell (the cytosol). The organelles are isolated (these organelles may not be found in a prokaryotic cell) Plasma membrane: the semipermeable membrane that encloses the cytoplasm of a cell. Endoplasmic reticulum: a membrane network within the cytoplasm of cells involved in the synthesis, modification, and transport of cellular materials. Cytosol: the fluid component of cytoplasm, excluding organelles and the insoluble, usually suspended, cytoplasmic components.
