|
|
|
Cell Wall
|
The cell wall is a rigid layer of nonliving material that surrounds the cells of plants and some other organisms.
|

|
Nuclear Envelope
|
The nuclear envelope protects the nucleus.
|
|
|
Chromatin
|
Strands, called chromatin, contain genetic material, the instructions for directing the cell's functions.
