The lipid bilayer surrounding any membrane-bounded vesicle in the cell. Double layer of lipid molecules that encloses all cells, and, in eukaryotes, many organelles; may be a single or double lipid bilayer; also includes associated proteins. Any constituent part of a cell, the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms. Any small, fluid-filled, spherical organelle enclosed by a lipid bilayer. Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, bounded by a single or double lipid bilayer membrane. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, and vesicles. Excludes the plasma membrane. The lipid bilayer surrounding an organelle. Any constituent part of an organelle, an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes constituent parts of the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton, but excludes the plasma membrane. Any small, fluid-filled, spherical organelle enclosed by membrane or protein. The lipid bilayer surrounding a cytoplasmic vesicle. A collection of membranous structures involved in transport within the cell. The main components of the endomembrane system are endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi bodies, vesicles, cell membrane and nuclear envelope. Members of the endomembrane system pass materials through each other or though the use of vesicles.
