Cell Organelles and Their Functions

This video tutorial from MooMooMath and Science covers the basic organelles of a cell, including the cell membrane, mitochondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, nucleus, vacuole, and cytoplasm. Each organelle's function is explained with analogies, such as the cell membrane acting like a security guard and the mitochondria as the powerhouse of the cell. The video concludes with a summary and encourages viewers to subscribe and share.

What is the primary function of the cell membrane?
