Chapter-8 Cell: The Unit Of Life What is a cell? Cell is the basic or fundamental structural and functional unit of an organism. What is cell biology? The branch of biology that deals with the study of cell structure and function is called cell biology. DISCOVERIES; Who discovered cell? Robert Hooke observed a live cell in 1665. He observed the cell(actually the cell walls) in the slice of cork under his compound microscope ‚coined the term cell‚ recorded his observations in micrographic

Food Web Diagram The African Grasslands are areas where the vegetation is dominated by grasses and other herbaceous (non-woody) plants. Grasslands cover nearly 50 percent of the land surface of the continent of Africa. While grasslands in general support diverse wildlife‚ given the lack of hiding places for predators‚ the African Savannah regions support a much greater diversity in wildlife than do temperate grasslands. The root systems of perennial grasses and forbs form complex mats that

Do you believe onions buried underground are the cause of sadness? In the book “Buried Onions” by Gary Soto there are many different examples; such as metaphors‚ similes‚ and personification to grab the reader’s attention. That is exactly what you want when reading a book! First type of figurative language‚ “Yellow shoes the color of a pat of butter” (40). is a metaphor that stuck out the most to me. A metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to

ASSIGNMENT - Why is a cell microscopic? By Lachlan Bryant This research assignment will discuss why cells are usually microscopic in size‚ given that they need to be able to exchange material with their surrounding environment. The cell is highly organised with many functional units or organelles (Spurger).A membrane is a fluid mosaic which consists of proteins‚ lipids and carbohydrates which seperates the cell from it’s surrounding environment or subdivides a cell into specialised regions or

Movement in and out of cells Diffusion: (mixing molecules) Molecules and ions in a liquid or a gas move continuously. The movement is quite random‚ and the particles change direction as they bump into one another. The particles collide more often when they are close together (when they are concentrated) and so they tend to diffuse‚ or spread out‚ until they are spaced evenly throughout the gas or liquid. The random movement of particles is due to their own kinetic energy. When the diffusion
