A diagram that shows the structure of a cell membrane. It shows the different types of neurons and their functions. The top left corner of the image shows a pericline which is a type of nerve cell that is responsible for regulating the flow of neurotransmitters in the brain. The top right corner shows a neuron which represents the neurotransmitter in the nervous system. The neuron is represented by a green and purple color scheme representing the astrogate. The outermost part of the neuron is labeled with the names of the neurons while the innermost part is colored in shades of pink purple and green. In the center of the diagram there is a cell with a tight junction labeled as "Capillary endothelia Cell". This cell is the nucleus of the cell and it is surrounded by a membrane that helps to regulate the cell's function. The membrane is also labeled as a capillary endothelia cell which helps to keep the cell in place while the cell is in the center. The image also shows a cross-section of the outermost cell showing the cell membrane and its functions.
