    This document discusses cell structure and function. It introduces cells as the basic units of living organisms, which can be prokaryotic or eukaryotic. The cell membrane regulates substance passage in and out of the cell, while the cytoplasm contains suspended organelles. The nucleus houses DNA, which contains genetic instructions. Organelles such as mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum perform key functions like energy production and protein synthesis. Cells carry out functions like metabolism, growth, and response to stimuli, with specialized cells having unique structures for their specific roles.

    **Subject: Biology**

    Title: "Cell Structure and Function"

    1. **Introduction to Cells**

    - Cells are the basic structural and functional units of all living organisms.

    - They can be prokaryotic (lacking a nucleus) or eukaryotic (with a nucleus).

    2. **Cell Membrane and Cytoplasm**

    - The cell membrane regulates the passage of substances in and out of the cell.

    - Cytoplasm is the gel-like substance inside the cell where organelles are suspended.

    3. **Nucleus and Genetic Material**

    - The nucleus contains DNA, the genetic material of the cell.

    - DNA carries instructions for cellular functions and inheritance.

    4. **Organelles**

    - Mitochondria produce energy through cellular respiration.

    - Endoplasmic reticulum is involved in protein and lipid synthesis.

    - Golgi apparatus packages and modifies proteins for transport.

    5. **Cell Functions**

    - Cells perform functions such as metabolism, growth, reproduction, and responding to stimuli.

    - Specialized cells in multicellular organisms have unique structures to perform specific functions.
