The document discusses the basic structural and functional properties of cells. It describes cells as the fundamental unit of living organisms, which can exist as single-celled prokaryotes like bacteria or multicellular eukaryotes. All cells are capable of communication, movement, reproduction, and produce extracellular environments, with prokaryotes reproducing asexually and eukaryotes sexually.

1. THE CELL

2. STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL UNIT
OF LIVING ORGANISMS
CAN BE UNICELLULAR OR
MULTICELLULAR

3. CELL THEORY
CELL IS THE BASIC UNIT OF LIVING
ORGANISMS
ALL ORGANISMS ARE CREATED FROM CELLS
CELLS ARE MADE FROM CELLS

4. PROKARYOTE
NO NUCLEUS OR NUCLEAR ENVELOPE
PRESENT
SINGLE CELLED ORGANISMS
BACTERIA
BINARY FISSION DIVISION
REPRODUCE ASEXUALLY
SOME POSSESS FLAGELLA FOR MOVEMENT

5. EUKARYOTE
NUCLEUS AND MEMBRANE BOUND
ORGANELLES PRESENT
MOSTLY MULTICELLULAR
DIVIDE BY MITOSIS
SEXUALLY REPRODUCE BY MEIOSIS

6. CELLS CAN MOVE AND CHANGE SHAPE BY
THEIR CYTOSKELETON

7. CELLS CAN PRODUCE THEIR OWN
ENVIRONMENT – EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX

8. CELLS CAN COMMUNICATE BY SENDING
AND RECEIVING INFORMATION

9. CELLS CAN GROW, DIVIDE AND DIE
