Journey into the Cell
A multi-part series about the structure of the fundamental unit of life -- the cell.
The Nucleus
The nucleus, a membrane bound structure that contains the cell's hereditary information, is commonly the most prominent organelle in a cell.
Ribosomes
Ribosomes are the "protein assemblers" of a eukaryotic cell.
Mitochondria
Mitochondria are the cell's power producers. They convert energy into forms that are usable by the cell.
The Endoplasmic Reticulum
The endoplasmic reticulum is an extensive network of membranes composed of both regions with ribosomes and regions without ribosomes.
The Golgi Complex
The Golgi complex or Golgi apparatus is responsible for manufacturing, warehousing and shipping certain cellular products.
Lysosomes
Lysosomes are membraneous sacs of enzymes. These enzymes digest cellular macromolecules.
Peroxisomes
Peroxisomes are bound by a single membrane and contain enzymes that produce hydrogen peroxide as a by-product.
The Cytoskeleton
The cytoskeleton is a network of fibers throughout the cell's cytoplasm that helps the cell maintain its shape and gives support to the cell.
