A vacuole is a membrane-bound cell organelle. In animal cells, vacuoles are generally small andhelp sequester waste products. In plant cells, vacuoles help maintain water balance. Sometimes a single vacuole can take up most of the interior space of the plant cell. What does the ribosome do?
Lipids are used by organisms for energy storage, as a signalling molecule (e.g.,steroid hormones), as intracellular messengers, and as a structural component of cell membranes. The fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) are isoprene-based lipids that are stored in the liver and fat. Som...
Cardiolipin has a number of functions and comprises roughly 25% of the lipids in the inner mitochondrial membrane.Mitochondriaare the powerhouses of the cell and serve as the location of respiration and much of the generation of the high-energy compound adenosine triphosphate (ATP). These structure...

which have an affinity for water, stick out and form cell membranes. Types of lipids include fats, waxes, oils and steroids. Lipids also make up a significant part of the body, forming a large part of cell membranes. They have the ability to store and create energy for cells when metabol...
Lipids create a unique type of polymer, known for being a key component of cell membranes and hormones. Where most polymers are long chains of identical, repeating carbon-containing molecules known as monomers, lipid polymers contain an additional, nonid
Each liposome has an outer wall comprised of lipids similar and sometimes identical to those which compose the cell wall, allowing liposomes to interact directly with cells. There are a number of applications for liposomes, ranging from targeted delivery of medications to specific areas of the body...
