Anatomy and Function of Cell Membranes and Organelles, Slides of Dental Anatomy

An in-depth exploration of the structure and function of a typical cell, focusing on the cell membrane, organelles, and intercellular attachments. Topics covered include the composition of the cell membrane, non-membranous organelles such as the cytoskeleton and ribosomes, membranous organelles like the nucleus, mitochondria, smooth and rough er, golgi apparatus, and lysosomes, as well as intercellular attachments such as gap junctions, tight junctions, and desmosomes.

1. Structure (and importance) of cell

membrane

2. Structure (and function) of organelles

3. Interconnections between cells to

maintain structural stability in body

tissues.

Key Points:

What else is also part of the cell membrane?

Cell membrane (plasma membrane, plasmalemma)

Cytoskeleton

4 major components:

  1. Microfilaments (mostly actin)
  2. Intermediate filaments
  3. Thick filaments (composed of myosin subunits)
  4. Microtubules (composed of tubulin subunits)
