Unveiling the Tiny Cell Organelles

INTRODUCTION  The basic structural and functional unit of living organisms called cells are incredibly magnificent,complex and dynamic entities.They being so tiny have the ability to perform wide variety of processes like growing,dividing,responding to stimuli thus sustaining life.All these cellular processes take place in the specialized compartments known as Cell Organelles which are tiny membrane bound structures found in cells performing specialized functions required for the survival and operation of the cell.All the organelles work together in a coordinated manner to maintain the homeostasis of the body,their study has revolutionized our understanding of cellular biological functions.The nucleus holds the genetic material and the energy generation is done by mitochondria,apart from these two each and every organelle plays a crucial role in maintaining the homeostasis in cells. In this blog,we will discuss about all the organelles constituted in a cell to gain know...

Building Blocks of Life:Cells

INTRODUCTION  It is estimated that there are 37.2 trillion cells that work together to make the human body function and to keep it alive. However,the complex human body have basic building blocks called cells which lay the foundation of almost all the living creatures. A cells is the fundamental unit of life and can be found from a tiniest bacteria to the complex human body. The function of generating energy and synthesizing proteins are all done by cells irrespective of their small size,with most cells measuring 10-100 micrometer in diameter. Cells are of various types around 200 in a human body and each one of them plays crucial role in maintaining the health and well being of a human body. Each cell has their own characteristics,structure and functions. It is quite essential to understand the different types of cells to appreciate the beauty and complexity of human body. Studying the different cells will help us in acknowledgement of our health and preven...
