Plants are the basis for thee Earth’s ecosystem and food web and, without them, complex animals life forms could never have evolved. They are unique amongst the eukaryotes, organism whose cells have membrane-enclosed nuclei and organelles, because they can manufacture their own food. Chlorophyll, which gives plants their green colour, enables them to use sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar and carbohydrates-chemicals the cell uses for fuel. ...
Molecular Cell Biology is an academic discipline which studies the Physiological properties of cells, as well as their behaviours, interactions, and environment. This is done both on a microscopic as well as molecular level. Cell Biology researches both single-celled organisms like bacteria and specialized cells in multicellular organisms like humans. The modern concepts of Molecular Cell Biology continue to be derived from experiments, and powerful experimental ...
The complete set of instructions for making an organism is called its genome. It contains the master blueprint for all cellular structure and activities for the lifetime of the cell or organism. Found in every nucleus of a person’s many trillions of cells, the human genome consists of tightly coiled threads of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and associated protein molecules, organised into structures called chromosomes. This book provides comprehensive and ...
