A schematic absorptive epithelial cell from the small intestine is depicted with an apical brush border of microvilli (MV), a prominent nucleus, mitochondria, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER), free ribosomes, and a curved Golgi apparatus (GA). Lateral membranes display junctional complexes and membrane transporters, with a simplified basal pole. In biological hierarchy, this cell is part of the intestinal epithelium within the gastrointestinal system. In histology and physiology, enterocytes enable nutrient absorption, brush-border enzyme activity, and barrier function in the intestinal mucosa.
