Document Summary

Most kinds of cells have both a nucleus and cytoplasm. Nucleus contains genetic material and is surrounded by a membranous nuclear envelope. Cytoplasm is mostly water but also contains proteins in solution and organelles: organelles. Membranous organelle: examples: mitochondria, golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum. Non membranous organelles: examples: microtubules and ribosomes. Nuclear envelope: separates nucleus and cytoplasm. Mitochondrial membranes: surround discrete, particulate, membrane-bound organelles. Membranes allow increased efficiency by grouping related enzymes, e. g. , mitochondria. Plasma membrane: all cells" outer boundary, separates cells from environment, composed of complex lipids and proteins, dynamic, active, vital boundary, maintains compositional differences between inside and outside cells, functions: All higher organisms are multicellular: cells > tissues > organs, four major classes of tissues. Epithelium: covers surfaces and lines cavities, has apical and basal polarization, barrier function. Connective tissue: binds epithelium to deeper tissue, consists of cells, fibers, and amorphous ground substance, mesenchyme.
