The Structure and Function of Cells In Living Organisms


There are two main groups of cells, namely prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. At prokaryotic cells, genetic material dispersed within a body like the core that is not surrounded by a membrane. Eukaryotic cells, have a cell nucleus which is very complex with a core sheath consisting of two membrane. The following comparison of the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic.

Cells in animals and plants, including eukaryotic groups. Eukaryotic microorganisms which for instance protozoa, protists and fungi. There is also a prokaryotic microorganisms, such as bacteria and blue-green algae.
Cell bacteria and blue-green algae are essentially the same as plant cells, except for the absence of chloroplasts, nucleus, and mitochondria. Chlorophyll is spread in the protoplasm. Nucleus is not visible because the material inside the nucleus dispersed protoplasm and not covered membrane.

The structure of plant cells and animal cells

An expert Matthias Schleiden plant anatomy and animal anatomy expert Theodor Shwan, they found every living thing is composed by cells. For distinguish the structure of plant cells and animal cells, can use the leaves of Elodea, Hydrilla, or Vallisneria with observed using a light microscope.

Part of cells and cell organelles in living things

Cells are building blocks of living organisms. That living things are composed of cells and has been demonstrated through microscopic observation made by Schleiden.

Transport through the cell membrane of living beings


Cell membrane or plasma membrane located on the outside of the cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm there are parts called organelles. All organelles limited by the membrane. Limiting membrane organelles that have the same molecular structure of the cell membrane, which is made up of fat and protein molecules.
