    Cell Biology By: Jared R. Guevara Period: 7/8A Cells, the basic unit of life as stated by the cell theory first created by Theodor Schwann and Matthias Jakob Schleiden, are what make up most living things. They are the blueprint to all life, and are what make up each and every organism, from a simple bacteria cell to humans and all animals. The Cell has two main types; prokaryotic and eukaryotic. These two types differ in slight ways, which makes them unique to their own organisms. Prokaryotic

    Exosomes, their cell biology, normal function in the cell, and role in disease. Study of exosomes has become popular in recent years, exosomes which are mainly found in body fluids such as blood and urine may play a role in cell biology and in the immune system. In eukaryotes, some cells are responsible for receiving signals via chemokines or cytokines, taking up nutrients and secreting proteins into extracellular space, endocytosis and exocytosis are then involved. Exosomes Biology: Endosomal multivesicular

    Cell Biology An introduction to the cell The cell is the smallest unit able to sustain life, and they are often referred to as the building blocks of life. There are two primary types of cell, which are categorized according to the way their genetic material is packaged, rather than size or shape. These are: 1. Prokaryote cells - bacteria and archeans. They are single celled organisms, where the DNA is not separate from the cytoplasm. These prokaryote cells formed the earliest and most primitive

    Since I was first exposed to the subject of biology in junior middle school, I have fallen in love with life sciences. I bought a light microscope and used it to observe materials at my fingertips, such as leaves and slices of meat. After I became a university student, I dive deeper, down to cell and molecular levels in cell and molecular biology (CMB) program. A passionate professor I met in my cell biology course has motivated me a lot. His presentation on cytoskeleton, motor protein and apoptosis

    Introduction to Cell Biology A Cell is the smallest structural and functional unit of an organism and consists of cytoplasm and a nucleus enclosed in a membrane A Prokaryotic Cell are cells without a membrane-bound nucleus. An example of a prokaryotic cell is bacteria. A Eukaryotic Cell does have a membrane-bound nucleus, making it different from a Prokaryotic Cell. The Nucleus contains genetic material and is surrounded by a nuclear envelope. An example is an animal cell. Both types of cells contain organelles

    Cells and Stem Cells 1. The Typical Animal Cell 2. Vacuole: The Vacuole are used as storage inside the cell. Vacuoles store food, water and nutrients to help keep the cell alive. The vacuole can also store the waste that the cell produces so it doesn’t damage the rest of the cell. Vacuoles are usually made from amino acid and water. Nucleus: The Nucleus acts like the brain in the cell, this is because the Nucleus helps to control the cells reproduction, eating and movement. Nucleolus: The Nucleolus

    (I) Explain cell theory? What are some current hypotheses of how the first cell could have come into existence? What is the evidence that supports these hypotheses? During my time in the introduction of biology, I have learned that Cell Theory can be defined as one of the basic principles of biology. Now credit for the formulation of this theory is given to several German scientists such as Theodor Schwann and Rudolph Virchow. In Biology, Cell Theory states that every single living organism are

    Cell Biology, BIOL 293, is one of ODU’s ‘required biology core courses.’ The course will focus on the structure and function of the cell; it will also focus emphatically on the notion that the cell is the basic unit of life. The fact that the life of an organism is controlled by a microscopic structure is fascinating. By the end of the course, I would like to know more about the Growth and Development of cells, internal structures. I would also like to learn about the numerous cellular processes
