Cells are some of the smallest organisms around. All living things consist of cells‚ and yet they are invisible to the naked eye. Cells are the basic structural and functional units of life. Cells are made up of many different parts which allow them to function properly. All cells are separated from their surrounding by a cell membrane. The cell membrane regulates what enters and leaves the cell and also aids in the protection and support of the cell. A cell membrane

Cell Fractionation * Cell Fractionation: takes cells apart and separates the major organelles and other subcellular structures from one another. * Tissue cells are the first one to be homogenate or broken apart. * Plasma membranes are broken up so that there internal contents spill out and mix together and this is called homogenate. * Homogenate is in spun in a higher rate of speed in a process called centrifugation. And that speed can vary that why it’s called differential

Animal Cells Vs. Plant Cells There are quite a few similarities and differences between plant and animal cells. Whether it be the internal parts of the cells‚ or the processes they go through. They also have differences in shape and sometimes size. These are only a few examples of similarities and differences between the two different cells. To begin with‚ both animal and plant cells are eukaryotic cells. This means that both cells have the same internal features‚ such as a cell membrane‚ a nucleus
