which he called cells’ this in itself unbeknownst to him‚ was the discovery of the fundamental unit of all living things. In 1838 a botanist called Schleiden derived the theory The basic unit of structure and function of all living organisms is the cell.’ Over 150 years later this can be regarded as one of the most familiar and important facts within the biological fields.

Seeding cells into needled felt scaffolds for tissue engineering applications SUMMARY: Tissue engineering methods are under development that will enable the repair or replacement of a variety of tissues‚ including articular cartilage and bone. To engineer functional tissue it is necessary that scaffolds initially be seeded with a large number of cells distributed evenly throughout the scaffold structure. It previously has been shown that‚ compared to static seeding conditions‚ seeding scaffolds

Cell organelles are specialized cell structures that perform specialized jobs in the cell.* 1. Cytoplasm- *Jelly-like substance inside of the cell 2. Mitochondria- *In cellular respiration oxygen is used to extract energy from sugars‚ fats‚ and other nutrients 3. Cell membrane- *It is a selectively permeable

The CELL THEORY‚ or cell doctrine‚ states that all organisms are composed of similar units of organization‚ called cells. The concept was formally articulated in 1839 by Schleiden & Schwann and has remained as the foundation of modern biology. The idea predates other great paradigms of biology including Darwin’s theory of evolution (1859)‚ Mendel’s laws of inheritance (1865)‚ and the establishment of comparative biochemistry (1940). Ultrastructural research and modern molecular biology have

DESCRIBE THE STRUCTURAL COMPARTMENTATION OF MAMMALIAN CELLS AND THE DIFFERING FUNCTIONS OF THESE COMPARTMENTS? Mammalian cells are eukaryotic this means that all of their cells have common components‚ membrane bound organelles which prokaryotic cells do not this is shown in figure 1. Organelles are purpose made to carry out a specific function that is necessary within a cell. Due to the specificity of both conditions and concentrations with in these organelles these are compartmentalized. Encasing

The cell wall is the tough‚ flexible but sometimes fairly rigid layer that surrounds some types of cells. It is located outside the cell membrane and provides these cells with structural support and protection. Just as the wall of the factory is for the factory. The wall also is the structure and strength. The cell membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside The cell membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and controls the movement of substances

Cell Organelles Nucleus Its function is to control the cell’s activities and retain the chromosomes. The nucleus is bound by a double membrane‚ the nuclear envelope. The nuclear envelope has pores in it to allow the transport of mRNA. The cytoplasm like material is called nucleoplasm which contains chromatin (coils of DNA and histone proteins)‚ it is chromatin that condenses to form chromosomes during cell division. Within the nucleus is a small spherical body called the nucleolus which

1. INTRODUCTION A solar cell is a device that converts the energy of sunlight directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. Sometimes the term solar cell is reserved for devices intended specifically to capture energy from sunlight‚ while the term photovoltaic cell is used when the light source is unspecified.”Photovoltaics” the field of technology and research related to the application of solar cells in producing electricity for practical use.

Plant Cell Plant cells have many different parts that are need to work together and function as a whole. These parts are the cell membrane which can be compared to a "Condom" due to the fact that is a very thin protective layer that lets certain substances to pass through. Cell wall is a thicker rougher membrane‚ which gives the plant most of its structure and support‚ the cell wall also bond with other cell walls to form the structure of the plant. Centrosome may be also referred to as the
