The Characteristics Of Ants

P1: Outline the function of the main cells of the body. Cells are the main structure of the body as they all come together to form one cell. They are very important because without them, we wouldn’t be able to live. The cells carry out numerous of chemical reaction that we wouldn’t have heard of or even felt and it is simply done it on its own. Cells make up all the organs in the body.

There are many parts of a cell, they all have specific duties, and are all

* Cells allow things to go in and out of the organism (allows diffusion to happen so good things go in and bad things go out)

Cell: In biology, the smallest unit that can perform all life processes; cells are covered by a membrane and contain DNA and cytoplasm.

In this report i will be writing brief description on the functions of the main cell components of the body cell.

Breaking down an organism leads scientists to identify cells. A group of cells create tissues, tissues combined are organs, and organs and their functions make up systems. Basically, cells make up living organisms. There are 2 kinds of cells: Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic. Within a prokaryotic, it doesn’t contain a DNA bounded nucleus; however, a eukaryotic cell does. Though the prokaryotic cell differs from a eukaryotic cell, they share a cell membrane. The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer and proteins, which makes it selectively permeable. It is located outside of the cytoplasm and controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell. Its basic function is to protect the cell from its surroundings by selecting what can enter and exit the cell.

The oldest fossil was the microfossils known to be found in Australia by a group from the University of Western Australia and Oxford University. The tiny fossils showed credible indication for cells and bacteria living in an oxygen free world over 3.4 billion years ago.

In a land far far away there were two anthills. Only two in the land. The anthills were not aware of their existence. In one anthill brimming with collected resources and a fair queen lived the Opie ants. In the other there were corrupted a corrupted queen who made the ants work until their death to satisfy her. Those were the Totie ants. Some of the Totie ants were good and hardworking but some turned evil just like the queen. The Totie ants and the Opie ants had the same anthills but different leader. The Opies had an abundance of food; whereas the Totie ants were starving because the queen only looked after her own well-being and ate all the food. The Totie ants were miserable with their leaders and eventually there

The human body is made up of 100 trillion cells. All cells have the same basic structure (see figure 1) however some cells are specialised to suit a specific purpose. An example of this is the pancreatic beta cells found in the islets of Langerhans. These cells are specialised to synthesise the protein insulin that is involved in the metabolism of glucose in the cells. (Layden, 2010)

240 million years ago. Then, about 200 million years ago the rift that would evolve into

In the introduction of the book Johnson begins by giving a narrative about the role that slime mold took in discovering emergent behavior. Biologist in time have struggled to answer questions as to how these organisms work together. The main concern about these emerging organisms was whether or not there was a controlling member who directed all other members in each of the communities. More than likely, the possible solution for any of these communities to show some sense of order would be if there were a controlling unit or what Johnson mentions as “controlling agents” that would be in charge of keeping the community in harmony.

40 million years ago the species Mesohippus celer appeared. It was taller than the Hyracotherium ( being 24 inches at the shoulder compared to 10-20 inches). They also didn't look as dog-like, because the back straightened slightly, the neck and legs grew a few inches, and the snout and face had grown longer. A close relative of the Mesohippus celer came to be, around 36 million years ago, called Miohippus assiniboiensis.

Some 480 million years ago, way before the dinosaurs, the Ordovician period, was the period when plants were finally able to inhabit land. It lasted for 42 million years. Sea levels were very high during this time, which allowed the already present sea creatures to grow to even larger proportions.

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.

In order for cells and organisms to “live” they need to perform certain tasks such as produce energy through respiration, send messages, maintenance and reproduction. To enable the cell to do so, it contains within small structures called organelles, each organelle is different and carries out a specific function.
