Organelles are the little organs inside a cell that perform specialized functions. Glycocalyx is the outer layer of a cell that helps with cell recognition and communication. Microvilli are finger-like projections on the surface of some cells that increase surface area for absorption. Intracellular fluids are the fluids that fill the space inside a cell. Microfilaments are thin, threadlike structures that help with cell movement and support.
