Cell Membrane
The cell membrane also known as plasma membrane is a complex structure meant to protect cells.
The cell membrane is present in all cells, and is located around the cell itself. Since it is in all cells the location may be different in specific cells. The location of the cell membrane will then determine its specific role. Generally the cell membrane restricts what enters and what leaves a cell. Which in other words is protecting the interior of a cell. The cell membrane can do amazing things. So what is this amazing thing made of? Cell membranes are composed of both proteins and lipids. The amount of lipids present in a cell membrane is approximately anywhere from 20-80%. Theses lipids then form together to make a bi layer of phospholipids. Organelle works with: cytoskeleton |
Chromosomes and Chromatin

Chromosomes and Chromatin are important pieces when it comes to developing and carrying genes.
Both chromosomes and chromatin are located in the nucleus. Chromatin is a DNA-protein complex that is the base structure of a chromosome. In chromatin the mass protein and the nucleic acid are nearly equal.
Each chromosome contains a double-stranded DNA. This DNA is then used to be spooled around histones protein cores. By going through this process you will then have formed beads called nucleosomes. The combination of both the DNA and the protein will then make a Chromatin.
In the nucleus the chromosomes responsibility is to maintaining information of instructions to make a offspring unique. Which means it carries the gene from the parent to the offspring. Recombination of chromosomes is a huge part in genetic diversity. The Chromatin's function is to package the DNA (make smaller) so it can fit into the cell. It also strengthens DNA to allow mitosis and meiosis.

Nuclear Envelope
The nuclear envelope also known as the nuclear membrane is located around the nucleus.
The nuclear envelope that surrounds the nucleus is constructed by a double membrane structure and high amounts of proteins. The two parts of the nuclear envelope are known as the inner nuclear membrane and outer nuclear membrane. Also present on the nuclear envelope are pores. The pores on the envelope manage macromolecule passage. Things that pass through the pores consist of proteins, and RNA. The nuclear envelope that has one main job. That job is to be a barrier to the nucleus. This barrier strictly separates nuclear content from the cytoplasm that surrounds it. Organelle work with: nucleus |
Nucleus
![Picture](/uploads/3/9/7/4/39745038/1404352.jpg?250)
The nucleus acts as the brain for cells. The nucleus can also be known as the cell nucleus.
The nucleus is present in all cells, so therefore there is no specific location for the nucleus. Typically it will located somewhere in the middle of all the cytoplasm. The nucleus is so important that it takes up 10 percent of the eukaryotic cell's volume.
The nucleus or cell nucleus has a very complex structure to it. One of the most commonly found things in the nucleus would be semifluid matrix or sometimes called nucleoplasm. Most of the nuclear material or content consist of chromatin, chromosomes, one or more nucleoli, and ribosomes. These are not the only things present in the nucleus. There are smaller components present which involve cajal bodies, Gemini of coiled bodies (GEMS), and interchromatin granule clusters.
Like any other organelle the nucleus has a specific job or responsibility to fulfill. The nucleus contains the cell's hereditary information and also controls the growth and reproduction of the cell. It is also a place to contain DNA and a place to make replications and transcription.
