    Detailed diagram of lipid bilayer of cell membrane. The cell membrane, or plasma membrane, is a selectively permeable [citation needed] biological membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell. In animals, the plasma membrane is the outer boundary of the cell, while in plants and prokaryotes it is usually covered by a cell wall.

  3. Endosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endosome

    Endosomes are a collection of intracellular sorting organelles in eukaryotic cells. They are parts of the endocytic membrane transport pathway originating from the trans Golgi network. Molecules or ligands internalized from the plasma membrane can follow this pathway all the way to lysosomes for degradation or can be recycled back to the cell ...

  4. Palisade cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palisade_cell

    Palisade cell, or palisade mesophyll cell are plant cells located inside the mesophyll of most green leaves. They are vertically elongated and are stacked side by side, in contrast to the irregular and loosely arranged spongy mesophyll cells beneath them. Palisade cells are responsible for carrying out the majority of the photosynthesis in a leaf.

  5. Assimilation (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assimilation_(biology)

    Assimilation (biology) Assimilation is the process of absorption of vitamins, minerals, and other chemicals from food as part of the nutrition of an organism. In humans, this is always done with a chemical breakdown (enzymes and acids) and physical breakdown (oral mastication and stomach churning). Chemical alteration of substances in the ...

    Typical animal cell Original - This is a schematic view of an typical animal cell. An animal cell is a form of eukaryotic cell that makes up many tissues in animals. Reason well labeled, encyclopedic, high quality SVG. i am renominating it sepratly because last time it was one of the concern. Articles this image appears in Eukaryote, Cytoskeleton

  9. Cytoskeleton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytoskeleton

    The cytoskeleton consists of (a) microtubules, (b) microfilaments, and (c) intermediate filaments. [1] The cytoskeleton is a complex, dynamic network of interlinking protein filaments present in the cytoplasm of all cells, including those of bacteria and archaea. [2] In eukaryotes, it extends from the cell nucleus to the cell membrane and is ...
