These parts of the cell are what biologists call  organelles .. That is a Latin name for little organs. Sometimes people think of cells as a balloon filled with fluid. That is not really true because a balloon does not let things move in and out like the membrane of a cell. It is important for cells to be able to move materials in and out of the cell. The plasma membrane in cells have special structures that allow water and other food materials to pass in and out of the cell.

Confidence votes 10.2K. Most lipids are built up from a molecule of glycerol and three perpendicular molecules of fatty acid. Some however, may have one fatty acid chain replaced by a phosphate group-phospholipids.

Proteins: Their building block is amino acids. The bond connecting 2 of the amino acids together are called peptide bonds. One of these bonds makes a monopeptide, two a dipeptide, and any more than that makes a polypeptide. This text is based on notes very generously donated by Dr. Paul Doerder, Ph.D., of the Cleveland State University.
