Features of the Human Cell
Organization of the Cell
• Plasma Membrane
– boundary surrounding the cell
• Genetic material: DNA
– located in a membrane-bound nucleus
for eukaryotic cells
• Cytoplasm
– Semi-fluid matrix containing enzymes
and organelles
(enzyme = biological catalyst)
• Cytoskeleton
– network of filaments and tubules in cytoplasm
that maintains cell shape, allows movement
