A group of organs that work together to perform major functions or meet physiological needs of the body.

The substance of the universe—from a grain of sand to a star—is called matter. Scientists define matter as anything that occupies space and has mass.

Structure and Composition of the Cell Membrane

The cell membrane is an extremely pliable structure composed primarily of back-to-back phospholipids (a “bilayer”). Cholesterol is also present, which contributes to the fluidity of the membrane, and there are various proteins embedded within the membrane
