The Cell: A Unit of Life
Added on -2019-09-19
This article discusses the basic properties of life, including stimuli response, reproduction, development and growth, energy processing, homeostasis, and optimizing the environment. It also delves into the structure of cells, including eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, and the genetic material located in the nucleus. The article also covers the different organelles found in cells, such as mitochondria, lysosomes, and chloroplasts. Finally, it touches on the topic of malignant tumors and the process of gene control through epigenome.

1THE CELLThe basic property of life's, essential substance phrasing and mixes of particles and one cell.Response to the environmental changes which are: light, chemical, and touch are referred as Stimuli. Reproduction is the second resource of life; Single-orbital living being DNA reproducedby duplication. Multicellular extraordinary reproduction germ line used to reproduce cells that later make used to make a new one, DNA- carrying genes can be passed alongside new living beings or organism, to guarantee that the offspring is belonging to the same species and also guarantees that there are similarities with the parents.Development and growth is the third part of life; all surviving organism used to increase and genes used to code their complexity in their size and structures, newborn used to grow so that it can acquire the characteristics of the parents. The fourth part of life is Energy Processing; many of the living organism have their energy inside their body through metabolic responses, while others used to take energy from the earth’s atmosphere and after that, it gets converted into the Chemical Energy. Fifth part of life is Homeostasis; which mainly controls circumstances like temperature, chemicalconcentration, and pH. Homeostasis is the capacity to keep up internal condition maintained. Organisms can keep up the inward temperature at the restricted range, regardless of the possibility that the environment changes.Optimizing the environment is the sixth part of life; the behavior of the organism towards the environment and remain comfortable can be changed by the effect of Environment.
