In eukaryotic cells, the membrane that surrounds the nucleus — commonly called the nuclear envelope — partitions this DNA from the cell's protein synthesis machinery, which is located in the ...

cell membrane, which surrounds the cytoplasm, vacuole, the space within the cytoplasm which contains the fluids and nutrients, and a nucleus, which contains the cell's genetic material ...

Some exist deep inside the cell, or even in the nucleus. These receptors typically bind to molecules that can pass through the plasma membrane, such as gases like nitrous oxide and steroid ...

But it wasn’t clear how cells translated being squished into relocating. Many of the same researchers, again working in two independent teams, have now found that the nucleus is responsible for ...

Specialised animal cells have components that allow them to complete a specific purpose. Specialised animal cells include red blood cells, sperm, eggs, nerve cells, muscle cells, ciliated cells ...
