Compartmentalization

Mr. Anderson explains compartmentalization in cells, focusing on why cells are small and the importance of surface area. He compares eukaryotic and prokaryotic strategies, highlighting how eukaryotes use compartmentalization for specialization and increased surface area. The video details the role of the endoplasmic reticulum in protein and lipid synthesis, emphasizing its structure and function in cells.
