    Structures and processes involved in the movement of substances into and out of cells. Epithelial cells – Epithelial cells are also referred to as eukaryotic cells. These types of cells have a unique nucleus and contain membrane-bounded organelles. Epithelial cells absorb and secrete‚ and the structures of a cells organelles can be viewed from an electron microscope. The nucleus – the nucleus of a cell contains most of the cell’s genetic material‚ organized as multiple long linear DNA molecules

    Tuesday‚ October 9th‚ 2012 Comparing Plant and Animal Cells Abstract The purpose of our lab was to have a better understanding of what are the differences between animal cells and plant cells. Although the cell is the basic unit in both living beings they are not completely alike. For that I have examined and compared human cheek cells to Elodea leaf cells. First‚ I’ve scraped the inside of my cheek with the end of a swab stick to collect the cells then I’ve prepared them on a clean glass slide. When

    Every cell in the body goes through a life cycle. Cells grow and divide to replace cells that are lost because of normal wear and tear or injury to them. All cells grow and die at different rates. The cell cycle can be divided into three periods: interphase‚ the mitotic phase‚ and cytokinesis. During interphase‚ the cell grows‚ accumulating nutrients needed for mitosis‚ preparing it for cell division and duplicating its DNA. During the mitotic phase‚ the cell splits itself into two distinct daughter

    the size of cheek cell and onion cell DCP: Introduction: In this experiment‚ Onion cells (Allium cepa) Cheek cells (Homo sapiens) were measured and compared. The aim of this experiment is to find out how both cells differ by comparing their size. Onion cells (Allium cepa) is plant cell and Cheek cells (Homo sapiens) is an animal cell. Hypothesis: The size of an animal cell (Homo sapiens) should be smaller than a plant cell (Allium cepa). Because a plant cell has cell wall which is to maintain

    thing that we have in common would be cells. In fact every living thing is composed of cells: plants‚ animals‚ bacteria etc. Cells exist in different shapes and sizes. They also differ depending on the function they have in an organism. To make things simpler‚ cells are categorized into two vast groups: Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells. These two types of cells are different from each other while still sharing some similarities. Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cells perform the same functions in the same

    In life’s hierarchy‚ cells make up the lowest level of organization. Cells can perform activities required to sustain life. A cell’s ability to divide to form new cells is the basis for growth and repair in organisms. Cells also play a key role in the recycling of carbon‚ a chemical element essential to life‚ and also participate in cellular processes such as photosynthesis. With these points in mind‚ it should be noted that cells come in one of two forms: prokaryotic and eukaryotic. By investigating

    Animal Cells Every once living thing is composed of cells. Cells are small organisms that control everything in living things. When an organism is made of one or more cells it is called a multi cellular organism. The first person to discover cells was Richard Hooke. The cells that he saw were the dead cells of cork. When he first saw them they reminded him of the cells that nearby monks lived in. there are many different parts of the cell but all serve a purpose. These many parts of the cells are
