Features common to plant and animal cells

1.
Cell membrane (plasma membrane) (Chapter 4)
Function to act as a boundary and to protect cell contents. To control
movement of substances in and out of the cell. Membrane is elastic therefore

cell can change shape in animals.
Structure - based on the fluid-mosaic model which suggests protein
molecules suspended bilayer of phospholipid. Water-soluble molecules
in
the membrane. Fat-soluble
pass through protein-lined pores (aquaporins) in
molecules pass through by dissolving in the phospholipids. Large molecules
in the form of
are moved across using carrier proteins which requires energy
ATP. antigens aquaporin soluable

2. Nucleus

Function - contains chromosomes, made of DNA, which carries a code about
making proteins (= protein synthesis) and how the cell develops.
Structure - The largest organelle. Has a double membrane (a nuclear
envelope) around the outside. Pores in the envelop allow movement of
molecules out into the cytoplasm (e.g. mRNA). Inside is nucleoplasm with one
or two nucleoli (where RNA is made). Dense staining material in the nucleus
is called chromatin (made of DNA and protein) chromosomes are only visible
when the cell is about to divide. (mitosis/meiosis)
