Unicellular organism From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search "Single-celled" redirects here. For prison cell assignment‚ see Single-celling. Valonia ventricosa is among the largest unicellular species. A unicellular organism‚ also known as a single-celled organism‚ is an organism that consists of only one cell‚ unlike a multicellular organism that consists of multiple cells. Historically the simple single celled organisms have sometimes been referred to as monads

* NCERT 1. Reproduction in Organisms INTRODUCTION Biology in essence is the story of life on earth. While individual organisms die without fail‚ species continue to live through millions of years unless threatened by natural or anthropogenic extinction. Reproduction becomes a vital process without which species cannot survive for long. Each individual leaves its progeny by asexual or sexual means. Sexual mode of reproduction enables creation of new variants‚ so that survival advantage is enhanced

Chris Brunelle Biology 112-online Professor Gaskin September 10‚ 2014 Minimal Organism “A minimal genome is generally defined as the smallest set of genes that allows for replication of the organism in a particular environment (Cho‚ M.‚ 1999). The creation of these minimal genomes can be helpful and harmful at the same time. There are many opinions out there about the subject‚ I will share some of those and my position on the subject. First let me just start with my personal position on minimal

Chapter 1: Classification and Characteristics of Living Organisms Organisms - An individual living thing‚ such as an animal or a plant‚ is called an organism. There are seven characteristics of living organisms – Nutrition Nutrition is the process by which organisms obtain energy and raw materials from nutrients such as proteins‚ carbohydrates and fats for growth and repair. Photosynthesis is the process of nourishment of green plants. Digestion is the process of nourishment of green

Abstract Organization as a living organism. This metaphor view Organizations from a Biological point of view. Organizations as living systems environment on which they are dependent on each other to satisfy various needs. When studying and comparing organization with living organism it was determined that organizations share the same concept as of a living organism. An organization needs to have the right environment in order to survive‚ adapt‚ surpass turbulence and reproduce; the cycle of

Model organisms are organisms used for research. They are alive‚ non-human species used for the purpose of studying different human diseases or other related experiments in which human testing would be considered either unsafe or unethical. Scientists study a particular biological phenomenon on a model organism and try to relate their findings to other types of organisms that are more difficult to study. As an example‚ 60% of human disease genes have an equivalent in the fruit fly and nematode worm

Sabao BS Biology I-A .Lab 1 August 01‚ 2013 INTODUCTION A pond is a body of freshwater smaller than a lake. Ponds are naturally formed by a depression in the ground filling and retaining water. Streams or spring water is usually fed into these bodies. They can also be man-made ponds which can be created by damming a stream‚ digging a hole. Ponds are usually

Organism Physiology Paper BIO/101 Organism Physiology Paper Every organism is different and has different physical attributes that allow them to survive in their habitat. Organisms can range from an animal‚ fungus‚ micro-organism‚ or plant. Some organisms have tick fur to deal with the cold winter as where some need the sun to survive. Evolution has given organisms their physiology to survive. Snakes as well as many reptiles have a unique physiology compared to other animals or organism

A Human Is A Complex Organism Human beings are complex and special organisms as there is a complex organisation of cells in the human body. The organisation in the human body is summarised as follows: Cells—> Tissues—> Organs—> Systems—> Organism.The same type of cells which carry out a specific function are organised into a tissue. For example‚ a group of nerve cells form a nerve tissue. They are organised to work together to perform specific functions as the result of cells in the human body
