Glycoprotein

A cell membrane structure composed of a carbohydrate bound to a protein, located on the outer surface of the membrane.

Glycolipid

A membrane component consisting of a carbohydrate bound to a lipid, located on the extracellular side of the plasma membrane.

Extracellular fluid

The body fluid located outside of cells, surrounding the plasma membrane.

Cytosol

The fluid portion of the cytoplasm located inside the plasma membrane.

Nucleolus

A dense body located inside the nucleus that produces ribosomal subunits.

Chromatin

The uncoiled DNA and protein complex contained within the nuclear envelope of a non-dividing cell.

Microvilli

Microscopic, finger-like projections of the plasma membrane that increase surface area for absorption.

Secretory vesicles

Membrane-bound sacs that transport materials synthesized within the cell to the plasma membrane for secretion.

Lysosomes

Organelles containing digestive enzymes responsible for breaking down cellular waste and macromolecular debris.

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

A membrane network continuous with the nuclear envelope, studded with ribosomes for protein synthesis and processing.

Microtubules

Cylindrical protein filaments of the cytoskeleton involved in cellular structure, organelle transport, and chromosome movement.

Pleural cavity

The potential space between the visceral pleura and parietal pleura surrounding each lung.

Pericardial cavity

The fluid-filled space between the visceral pericardium and parietal pericardium enclosing the heart.
