Summary of What is Cell?

Cells are the basic unit of life present in plants, animals, and microbes.

Cells can perform structural and functional roles in living organisms.

Eukaryotic Cells have membrane-bound organelles like the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, ribosomes, lysosomes, and vacuoles.

Organelles float in the cytoplasm, which has a jelly-like appearance and is continuously streaming.

Prokaryotic Cells do not have membrane-bound organelles and have a freely suspended nucleus in the cytoplasm.

Plant Cells have a cell wall, cell membrane, large vacuole, and small nucleus.

Animal Cells have a large nucleus and small vacuole, with no cell wall, only a cell membrane.
