Squamous: fried egg shape; nucleus is in the center. Cuboidal: cube shaped; nucleus is in the middle. Good for stacking Columnar: Column shaped; tall rectangular. Nucleus is at the basements(bottom) Polygonal: all different type; hexagon, octagon Stellate: star spapeds; nervous system Spheroid/ovoid: round or oval; Discoid: frissbee; red blood cells Fusiform: big in the center and taper off at the ends (Top) Fibrous: long and skinny (muscle cells) Basal vs. apical surfaces: Top and Bottom. Apical faces the external environment. Basal faces the bottom (other cells/muscles/whatever is deeper) . Cells measured in micrometers

Cholesterol Glycolipids
Membrane Proteins
(usual peripheral proteins): allow different molecules to bind and give permission to pass through Enzymes (proteins): speeds up a process Channels (usually integral proteins): run from one side to the other. Tunnel or a Channel. Cell identity markers: CAMs: Cell adhesion molecules; hold a cell in place either to another cell or to the Cellular fluid. (Velcro) Carriers: allow carriers to pass with permission. The physically carry the molecule across the membrane.
Membrane transport
The Glycocalyx
Microvilli: tiny hairs; allow material to pass by the cell (move things along) Cilia: bigger hair extensions (moving material past the cell/ move thicker things like mucous) Flagellum: one extension very long and big. Only cell with this is Sperm cells.
