		Cell Membranes Learn that membranes are fluid, with components that move, change, and perform vital physiological roles as they allow cells to communicate with each other and their environment.
		The Cell Cycle & Mitosis Understand the events that occur in the cell cycle and the process of mitosis that divides the duplicated genetic material creating two identical daughter cells.
		The Cytoskeleton Learn that the cytoskeleton acts both a muscle and a skeleton, and is responsible for cell movement, cytokinesis, and the organization of the organelles within the cell.

	Cell (biology) - MSN Encarta
		The smallest cell, a type of bacterium known as a mycoplasma, measures 0.0001 mm (0.000004 in) in diameter; 10,000 mycoplasmas in a row are only as wide as the diameter of a human hair.
		Prokaryotic cells are among the tiniest of all cells, ranging in size from 0.0001 to 0.003 mm (0.000004 to 0.0001 in) in diameter.
		The extraordinary biochemical diversity of prokaryotic cells is manifested in the wide-ranging lifestyles of the archaebacteria and the bacteria, whose habitats include polar ice, deserts, and hydrothermal vents—deep regions of the ocean under great pressure where hot water geysers erupt from cracks in the ocean floor.

		Cell Biology therefore defines the very center of all efforts to understand all aspects of biology and human disease.
		Cell Biology seeks to understand a continuum that starts with elucidating the molecular basis of how cells are constructed, how the thousands of cell types accomplish their individual tasks, and finally how these different cells cooperate to form tissues, systems, and organisms.
		Cell biologists thus represent a diverse group, conversant in and committed to a wide variety disciplines: from genetics to biochemistry, from immunology to neurobiology, from development to informatics, from genomics to clinical medicine.

		Organisms vary from single cells (called single-celled or unicellular organisms) that function and survive more or less independently, through colonial forms with cells living together, to multicellular forms in which cells are specialized.
		All cells whether prokaryotic or eukaryotic have a membrane, which envelopes the cell, separates its interior from its environment, controls what moves in and out, and maintains the electric potential of the cell.
		Prokaryotic cells have three architectural regions: appendages called flagella and piliâ”proteins attached to the cell surface; a cell envelope consisting of a capsule, a cell wall, and a plasma membrane; and a cytoplasmic region that contains the cell genome (DNA) and ribosomes and various sorts of inclusions.

	What is a Cell
		The simplest of cells, and the first types of cells to evolve, were prokaryotic cells—organisms that lack a nuclear membrane, the membrane that surrounds the nucleus of a cell.
		The cells may be adjacent to one another because they did not separate after cell division or because they remained enclosed in a common sheath or slime secreted by the cells.
		All cells arise from pre-existing cells, that is, their genetic material must be replicated and passed from parent cell to progeny.

		This membrane serves to separate and protect a cell from its surrounding environment and is made mostly from a double layer of lipids (hydrophobic fat-like molecules) and hydrophilic phosphorous molecules.
		As mitochondria contain their own genome that is separate and distinct from the nuclear genome of a cell, they play a critical role in generating energy in the eukaryotic cell, a process involving a number of complex metabolic pathways.
		Prokaryotic cells have three architectural regions: appendages called flagella and pili — proteins attached to the cell surface; a cell envelope consisting of a capsule, a cell wall, and a plasma membrane; and a cytoplasmic region that contains the cell genome (DNA) and ribosomes and various sorts of inclusions.

	CELLS II: CELLULAR ORGANIZATION
		According to the Cell Theory, all living things are composed of one or more cells, and the functions of a multicellular organism are a consequence of the types of cells it has.
		Prokaryotic cells are smaller (as a general rule) and lack much of the internal compartmentalization and complexity of eukaryotic cells.
		Cell movement; is both internal, referred to as cytoplasmic streaming, and external, referred to as motility.

	Cell Biology Biowissenschaften in der Zellbiologie
		Die Cell Biology ist ein Teilbereich der Biowissenschaften und ist in den letzten beiden Jahrzehnten immer wichtiger geworden, da sich mit Hilfe der Zellbiologie viel über das Leben einzelner Organismen lernen lassen kann.
		Typische Untersuchungen im Bereich der Cell Biology sind Zellteilungen, die Bewegung von Zellen im einzelnen oder in Zellverbänden und in einem hohen Maß der kommunikative Austausch zwischen den einzelnen Zellen.
		Besondere Beachtung fand die Cell Biology in den 1990er Jahren durch die ersten geglückten Klonversuche von Lebewesen (Stichwort: Klonschaf Dolly), die auf der einen Seite auch zu einer Kontroverse geführt haben, ob man sich als Mensch solch einen Klonprozess anmaßen dürfte.
