Earth has cells. Cells are made up of small pieces called proteins and organelles. The larger pieces are tissues and systems. Cells hold biological equipment that keeps them alive. A cells job is to organize. Each cell has a different function. Organisms grow and survive better when cells are present. If people were only made up of one cell they could only grow to one size. You also would not have a nervous system or muscles. A person’s body is made up of trillions of cells. Animal-like cells differ

providing and maintaining form in the body. Functioning mechanically, they provide a matrix that connects and binds the cells and organs and ultimately gives support to the body.Structurally, connective tissue is formed by three classes of components: cells, fibers, and ground substance. Unlike the other tissues (epithelium, muscle, and nerve), which are formed mainly by cells, the major constituent of connective tissue is the extracellular matrix. Extracellular matrices consist of different combinations

Regenerative Therapy Omar Saeed Nicholas Justus Date Due: April 7th, 2013 Stem Cells are specific biological cells found in organisms that contain the ability to divide, differentiate and regenerate to create further stem cells. Stem cells divide through mitosis and differentiate by a specific process, which allows the cell to become a more specific cell type. Stem cells therapy as a whole is a very debated and controversial topic as it brings about ethical and moral dilemmas involving the

Most scientific Theories have two components: the pattern component and the process component. What are the two components of Cell Theory and of the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection? What are the two conditions required by the process component of evolutionary theory? 3. What is the hypothesis of Spontaneous Generation and how does Cell Theory challenge that hypothesis?

of human airway and capillary cells, and then introduced immune cells” (Ingber, 2010, p. 661). The chip consists of micro-channels parted by a malleable micrometer tissue. A single conduit encompasses air sacks lining like human lungs, and the other channel conveys capillaries, and to emulate blood flow, it has liquids flowing. The chip highlights the cells’ behavior and fluctuations when they are stretched. The size of the chip is made of human lung and vessel cells, acts much like a lung in a human
