Cell

What is cell?

Cell is called the structural and functional unit of life because it is where the life started and every organisms are made of cells.They contain organelles which perform different functions in the cell.Cell was first discovered by Robert Hooke by using a primitive microscope by using bark cells in 1665.

What are the cell organelles?

A cell organelle is a part of cell which perform different function from each other.

Names of some cell organelles?

  1. Nucleolus
  2. Nucleus
  3. Ribosome
  4. Vesicle
  5. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
  6. Golgi Body

Answer:

Cell Definition

  • “A cell is defined as the smallest, basic unit of life that is responsible for all of life’s processes.”

  • Cells are the structural, functional, and biological units of all living beings. A cell can replicate itself independently. Hence, they are known as the building blocks of life.

  • Each cell contains a fluid called the cytoplasm, which is enclosed by a membrane. Also present in the cytoplasm are several biomolecules like proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Moreover, cellular structures called cell organelles are suspended in the cytoplasm

Cell

  • A cell is the structural and fundamental unit of life. The study of cells from its basic structure to the functions of every cell organelle is called Cell Biology. Robert Hooke was the first Biologist who discovered cells.

  • All organisms are made up of cells. They may be made up of a single cell (unicellular), or many cells (multicellular). Mycoplasmas are the smallest known cells. Cells are the building blocks of all living beings. They provide structure to the body and convert the nutrients taken from the food into energy.

  • Cells are complex and their components perform various functions in an organism. They are of different shapes and sizes, pretty much like bricks of the buildings. Our body is made up of cells of different shapes and sizes.

  • Cells are the lowest level of organisation in every life form. From organism to organism, the count of cells may vary. Humans have the number of cells compared to that of bacteria.

  • Cells comprise several cell organelles that perform specialised functions to carry out life processes. Every organelle has a specific structure. The hereditary material of the organisms is also present in the cells..
