    parts of a cell with specific structures and functions

    A cellular component refers to any part of a cell, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, or cell membrane, that has a specific structure and function. These components work together to keep the cell alive and functioning properly. For example, the nucleus contains genetic material, while mitochondria produce energy for the cell. Understanding cellular components is crucial for studying how cells operate and how they contribute to larger biological processes.
