what is cell?

Answer 1

A cell is the smallest living portion of a living thing. Living things can be multicellular (like rats, people, or trees) or unicellular (like amoebas).

Cells contain all of the genetic material of that living thing, in the form of DNA. That DNA then tells the cell what proteins to make, how to make them, and how to use them - sometimes proteins are used to built channels, or holes, in the cell so that nutrients can be brought in, and other times the proteins are used to collect and move out waste products.

Cells also contain all sorts of neat organelles, which are like organs, that help the cell do its fundamental job of staying alive.

Answer 3

The is the structural and functional unit of all living organisms, and is sometimes called the "building block of life(A cell is a single unit or compartment, enclosed by a border, wall or membrane. As a term, cell has become general-purpose metaphor for building blocks which serve to compose larger structures)."Some organisms, such as bacteria, are unicellular (consist of a single cell). Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular. (Humans have an estimated 100 trillion or 1014 cells; a typical cell size is 10 µm; a typical cell mass is 1 nanogram.) The largest known cell is an ostrich egg.

Answer 4

The cell is the structural and functional unit of all living organisms, and is sometimes called the "building block of life."[1] Some organisms, such as bacteria, are unicellular (consist of a single cell). Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular. (Humans have an estimated 100 trillion or 1014 cells; a typical cell size is 10 µm; a typical cell mass is 1 nanogram.) The largest known cell is an ostrich egg.

The cell theory, first developed in 1839 by Matthias Jakob Schleiden and Theodor Schwann, states that all organisms are composed of one or more cells. All cells come from preexisting cells. Vital functions of an organism occur within cells, and all cells contain the hereditary information necessary for regulating cell functions and for transmitting information to the next generation of cells.

The word cell comes from the Latin cellula, a small room.

Answer 5

a cell is a basic structure to living organisms. Some are single celled, some are multi celled like us. Cells can take many form, have many purposes, and most can replicate. Inside the cell are organeles. These are like our organs, but instead they serve the cells to keep it funtioning.

Answer 7

a cell is the basic functional unit of life!!!
everyliving thing started life as a cell, except for the virus which is not a cell....
