Barrier of nucleus
Nuclear Membrane
a non-membrane bound organelle taking part in synthesis of ribosomes, including processing of rRNA and the assembly of them into ribosomes subunits
Nucleoli
Composed of DNA and proteins
Chromatin
Barrier for cell contents, doubke phospolipid layer
Plasma membrane
Finger-like projections that increase surface area for absorption
Microvilli
