📚 Biology Exam Preparation: Key Points of Cell Structure | 生物备考：细胞结构考点梳理
Cells are the fundamental units of life, and understanding their structure is a core requirement for biology exams at all levels. This revision guide consolidates the essential knowledge about cell structure, including comparisons between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, organelle functions, and common misconceptions, helping you target high-yield marks.
细胞是生命的基本单位，理解其结构是各级生物考试的核心要求。本复习指南整合了关于细胞结构的关键知识，包括原核与真核细胞的比较、细胞器功能以及常见误区，帮助你锁定高频考点，高效提分。
1. Overview of Cell Structure | 细胞结构总览
All living organisms are composed of cells, which can be broadly classified into two types: prokaryotic cells, which lack a membrane-bound nucleus, and eukaryotic cells, which possess a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. In exams, you must be able to identify organelles from diagrams and describe their functions accurately.
所有生物体都由细胞组成，细胞大致可分为两类：缺乏膜包围细胞核的原核细胞，以及拥有真正细胞核和膜包围细胞器的真核细胞。考试中，你必须能够从图中识别细胞器，并准确描述其功能。
Prokaryotic cells include bacteria and archaea; they are generally smaller (1–10 μm) and simpler.
原核细胞包括细菌和古菌；它们通常较小（1–10 μm）且结构更简单。
Eukaryotic cells include animal, plant, fungal and protist cells; they are larger (10–100 μm) and have complex internal compartments.
真核细胞包括动物、植物、真菌和原生生物细胞；它们更大（10–100 μm），具有复杂的内部区室。
2. Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic Cells | 原核与真核细胞
Comparing prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is a frequent exam question. The key differences lie in the presence of a nucleus, membrane-bound organelles, and the composition of the cell wall.
比较原核与真核细胞是常见考题。关键差异在于细胞核的存在、膜包围细胞器以及细胞壁的成分。
| Feature | Prokaryotic Cell | Eukaryotic Cell |
| Nucleus | Absent (nucleoid region) | Present |
| Membrane-bound organelles | Absent | Present |
| Ribosomes | 70S | 80S |
| Cell wall | Peptidoglycan (bacteria) | Cellulose (plants), chitin (fungi), or none (animals) |
Remember that prokaryotic cells still have ribosomes and a plasma membrane, and they may have flagella, pili and capsules, which are also examinable.
请记住，原核细胞仍然有核糖体和质膜，并且可能具有鞭毛、菌毛和荚膜，这些也是可考点。
3. Cell Membrane Structure and Function | 细胞膜的结构与功能
The cell membrane (plasma membrane) follows the fluid mosaic model. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, cholesterol, glycoproteins and glycolipids. The membrane controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell and is selectively permeable.
细胞膜遵循流动镶嵌模型。它由磷脂双分子层和嵌入其中的蛋白质、胆固醇、糖蛋白和糖脂组成。膜控制物质进出细胞，具有选择透过性。
Phospholipid bilayer: hydrophilic heads face outward, hydrophobic tails face inward, forming a barrier to water-soluble molecules.
磷脂双分子层：亲水头部朝外，疏水尾部朝内，形成对水溶性分子的屏障。
Integral proteins: span the membrane and can act as channels, carriers or receptors.
整合蛋白：贯穿膜，可作为通道、载体或受体。
Glycoproteins/glycolipids: involved in cell recognition and cell-cell adhesion.
糖蛋白/糖脂：参与细胞识别和细胞间黏附。
Cholesterol (in animal cells): regulates fluidity and stabilises the membrane.
胆固醇（动物细胞）：调节流动性并稳定膜。
Key exam point: proteins in the membrane can move laterally, giving the membrane fluidity, but the structure is not static.
考试要点：膜中的蛋白质可以侧向移动，赋予膜流动性，但结构并非静止。
