Grade 10 Biology, Chapter 2, 2.2.3 Cell Organization
Dr. Chit Ye Zaw・2 minutes read
Cells are the fundamental units of organisms, with organelles organizing into cells with unique structures and functions based on molecules. Cell theory states that all living things are made up of one or more cells, with unicellular organisms functioning independently and multicellular organisms having specialized cells grouped into levels of organization from cells to systems.
Insights
- Cells are the fundamental units of living organisms, each containing organelles that contribute to their distinct structures and functions, highlighting the importance of molecular organization within cells.
- The cell theory asserts that all living beings are made up of cells, with unicellular organisms managing all life processes individually, contrasting with multicellular organisms that feature specialized cells working together in a hierarchical system from cells to tissues, organs, and systems.
