7-1‚ 7-2 Cell Structures and Function cell theory- all living things are composed of cells‚ cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things‚ new cells are produced from existing cells. prokaryote- smaller and simpler than eukaryotes‚ do not contain nuclei‚ are part of the Bacteria domain‚ are unicellular‚ are autotrophs or heterotrophs eukaryote- cells with nuclei and contain specialized structures called organells. All plants‚ animals and fungi are eukaryotes. Part of the

Biology- Animal cell The NUCLEUS is the largest organelle in the majority of cells. It contains genetic information in DNA‚ which is responsible for the cells unique characteristics. The nucleus is separated from the rest of the cell by.... ...The NUCLEAR ENVELOPE is used as a barrier which separates the contents of the nucleus from the cytoplasm‚ all in all keeping the DNA safe and intact. The nuclear envelope regulates the flow of substances into and out of the nucleus. The NUCLEOLUS is an important

organelle in any eukaryotic cell. It is enclosed in a double membrane and communicates with the surrounding cytosol via numerous nuclear pores. Within the nucleus is the DNA responsible for providing the cell with its unique characteristics. The DNA is similar in every cell of the body‚ but depending on the specific cell type‚ some genes may be turned on or off - that’s why a liver cell is different from a muscle cell‚ and a muscle cell is different from a fat cell. When a cell is dividing‚ the nuclear

Cell wall is a fairly rigid‚ protective and supportive layer surrounding the cell external to plasma membrane of plants‚ bacteria‚ archaea‚ fungi and algae. It is absent in animals and most protists. It was first observed by Robert Hooke in 1665. It is not an entirely rigid structure as the cell wall expands due to the growth of the cell. It varies in thickness from o.1mm to I0mm.in most of the cells‚ cell wall is present from the very beginning to the last‚ but in slime molds (myxomycetes)

The cell functions much in the way a city does. Although it may be an old analogy‚ it may be one of the best. Following is a list of cell parts and how their function is similar to functions of a city or town. The cell membrane is the city limits of our city. Outside of the city limits‚ the local government has no jurisdiction‚ but inside those limits‚ people are subject to the “laws of the land”. The nucleus – This is the place where direction is given and DNA is sent from. This would

This paper is about how the plant cells and solar cells are similar to each other as well as how they are different to one another. In addition this paper explains how the laws of thermodynamics apply to each of the plant and solar cells system.

support‚ move‚ and protect the body; they also give us our features. But without bone cells we would have no bones. Bone cells are the living units that make up your bones and keep them functioning. Bone cells have two major roles‚ which are the production of new bones and resorption or destruction of old bone. They also carry out other small roles. There are four main types of bone cells: Osteogenic‚ which are bone cells that respond to traumas‚ osteoblasts‚ which form bone matrix around themselves by
