CELL STRUCTURE

Cytoplasm Nucleus

Two major structures are

found in the cell

Nucleus

Cytoplasm

Living structures

(Organells) Non Living structures

(Inclusions)

•Membranous

i.e. surrounded

by a membrane .

Structure of the cytoplasm

Matrix

carbohydrates, lipids, proteins,

and RNAs

•Non-membranous

i.e. not surrounded

by a membrane as :

Ribosomes

cytoskeleton

Types of Non membranous organells

modifications

•Cell membrane

i.e. cilia,

flagella,microvilli

•microtubule

s i.e. centriole

•Filaments i.e.

thin , thick,

intermediate

•microtubule

s i.e. centriole

❑ Definition :Non Membranous cytoplasmic

organelle considered as the

protein synthesis sites.

❑ By L.M :Basophilic .

❑ By E.M :➢ large and small subunits

unassociated with membranes.

Ribosomes

Free Attached

Types of Ribosomes

Polysomes

• Functions of Ribosomes:-

Cytoskeleton

Thin intermediate

Types of Filaments

Thick

Filaments One of the membranous cytoplasmic organelle that considered the

cytoskeleton.

❑ Definition:

Microtubules

Centriole

Cilia

Nucleus
