Exploring the Features of a Prokaryotic Cell

Plasma Membrane

The plasma membrane in a prokaryotic cell is a selectively permeable lipid bilayer that surrounds the cytoplasm and acts as a barrier to regulate the passage of molecules in and out of the cell.

Cytoplasm

Cytoplasm is the gel-like substance that fills the interior of the cell and contains various organelles, enzymes, and other cellular structures. It plays a crucial role in supporting the cell's internal structures and functions.

Ribosomes

Ribosomes are the cellular organelles responsible for protein synthesis. Prokaryotic cells contain numerous ribosomes that carry out the process of translating genetic information into functional proteins.
