Topic 2: Key Points
In this section, we explored the following main points:
In this section, we explored the following main points:
- The characteristics of the cell membrane, such as lipid bilayer and transmembrane proteins are very important for the cell function.
- The chromatin is the combination or complex of DNA and proteins that make up the contents of the nucleus of a cell.
- Cells have proteins called receptors that are important to receive extracellular signals and initiate signaling pathways in the cell.
