  2. CW complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CW_complex

    In mathematics, and specifically in topology, a CW complex (also cellular complex or cell complex) is a topological space that is built by gluing together topological balls (so-called cells) of different dimensions in specific ways.

  3. Golgi apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_apparatus

    The Golgi apparatus (/ ˈ ɡ ɒ l dʒ i /), also known as the Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi, is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. [1] Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm, it packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination.

  4. Fences and pickets model of plasma membrane structure

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fences_and_pickets_model...

    The movement of phospholipids, even those located in the outer leaflet of the membrane, is regulated by the actin-based membrane skeleton meshwork.Which is surprising, because the membrane skeleton is located on the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane, and cannot directly interact with the phospholipids located in the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metaphor:_The_Tree_of_Utah

    Metaphor: The Tree of Utah, sometimes called the Tree of Life, is an 87-foot-tall (27 m) sculpture that was created by the Swedish artist Karl Momen in the 1980s and dedicated in 1986.

  6. Cellular organizational structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_organizational...

    Creating cellular organizations fundamentally involves mimicking processes that occur in natural processes.This entails fostering both strong senses of independence and interdependence, with improvement being seen at a central level as a continuous, gradual phenomenon.

  7. Endomembrane system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endomembrane_system

    The plasma membrane of a cell has multiple functions. These include transporting nutrients into the cell, allowing waste to leave, preventing materials from entering the cell, averting needed materials from leaving the cell, maintaining the pH of the cytosol, and preserving the osmotic pressure of the cytosol. Transport proteins which allow ...

  8. Fluid Concepts and Creative Analogies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_Concepts_and...

    The name is inspired by the place in a cell where molecular fragments are assembled into proteins. The "Coderack": a structure containing "codelets", small pieces of programs that are waiting to be executed in the cytoplasm; the codelet that is executed next is chosen non-deterministically, based on urgencies attached to them; a codelet may ...

  9. Conway's Game of Life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway's_Game_of_Life

    A cell is born if it has exactly three neighbours, survives if it has two or three living neighbours, and dies otherwise. The first number, or list of numbers, is what is required for a dead cell to be born. The second set is the requirement for a live cell to survive to the next generation.
