This video covers the structure and function of cell organelles in eukaryotic cells, including the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and centrioles. It explains how these organelles contribute to cellular processes such as protein synthesis, energy production, and cell division. The video also discusses the differences between plant and animal cells, highlighting unique features like the cell wall and chloroplasts in plant cells.
