Cell
structural, functional and biological
unit of an organism.
A cell is the smallest unit of life and
the fundamental building block of all
living things
Prokaryotic
Lack a defined Prokaryotic
nucleus
Types Plant
of Cells
Animal
Eukaryotic
Have a defined
nucleus
Protist
Fungal
Composed of several fundamental components
Lysosome and
Mitochondria Chloroplasts peroxisome Centriole Microtubules
Structure and basic
functions
Cell membrane
• Protecting the integrity of the
interior cell.
• Providing support and maintaining
the shape of the cell.
• Helps in regulating cell growth
through the balance of endocytosis
and exocytosis.
• The cell membrane also plays an
important role in cell signalling and
communication.
• Acts as a selectively permeable
membrane by allowing the entry of
only selected substances into the
Cell nucleus
functions:
• provides support
• enables movement in eukaryotic cells.
Flagella and cilia
Vesicles:
• transport materials from the
endoplasmic reticulum and the
Golgi apparatus to other
destinations.
Endosomes:
• capture and distribute materials for
degradation, recycling, or their
incorporation into metabolic
pathways.
