Animal and plant cells are made from millions of tiny cells‚ so small that we are unable to see them with our naked eye. Animals and plants have many features in common within a cell such as a cell membrane‚ cytoplasm‚ mitochondria‚ ribosomes and the nucleus. Plant cells also have a cell wall‚ chloroplasts

reality. Scientists have recently discovered the endless possibilities of the so called embryonic stem cells. It has been said that these cells have the ability to repair an entire tissue or even create a copy of it. It is also said to be a potential cure for innumerable serious diseases such as the Alzheimer and the Parkinson’s disease. This is why stem cell research should definitely be funded for the enormous impact it can make in the medical field. Stem cell research is perhaps one of the most

Introduction Using microscopes allows humans to see things they’ve otherwise would have never seen before‚ like cells. A cell is the basic unit of life. All living things are made of cells. All cells come from preexisting cells through a process called cellular division. There are two types of cells‚ eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Prokaryotes are very simple and small. They are unicellular and have no membrane bound organelles. Their DNA is found directly in the cytoplasm since they have no nucleus

Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research Should Not Be Banned According to John A. Robertson‚ co-chair of the ethics committee of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine‚ “In November 1998‚ a team of researchers at the University of Wisconsin and a team at Jonhs Hopkins University published reports of the first successful isolation and culturing of human ES cells”(qtd. in Ruse and Pynes‚ 121). For over a decade‚ many researchers have thought that human embryonic stem cells could be the “Holy

The Berlin Wall “Walls and their guards can never encircle the people and hold down ideas”‚ this could not be a more accurate description to describe the affects of the Berlin Wall during the 1960’s. After World War Two‚ Germany was divided into two separate countries. West Germany became a democratic country‚ under the influence of its allies France‚ Britain and the United States. These countries also had control over differing sectors of West Germany. East Germany fell under the ruling of the

Organisms are eukaryotic except Bacteria and Achaea. Organelles are small membranous bodies‚ each with a specific structure and function. Prokaryotes do have cytoplasm‚ which is the material bounded by a plasma membrane and cell wall. This contains ribosomes‚ small granules that coordinate the synthesis of proteins

Biology- cell organelles assignment Animal cells: Introduction: An animal cell is called a eukaryotic cell; it has a cell membrane‚ cytoplasm and a nucleus. The cell surface is covered by a membrane only. The cell membrane is strong and keeps the cell together even though it is thin and flexible. The cell membrane also controls what goes in and out of the cell e.g. nutrients go in and waste comes out. The cytoplasm is inside the nucleus and it controls the cells activities. An animal is
