GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The smallest and most fundamental unit of life is a cell. The cell was found in 1665 by Robert Hooke. The cell has been described as the most fundamental structural and functional unit in all living forms, including bacteria, plants, animals, and humans.

Detailed explanation-2: -Overview. Cells are basic units of structure and function in living things. This means that cells form the parts or an organism and carry out all of the an organism’s processes, or functions.

Detailed explanation-3: -A Basic Structural Unit (BSU) is essentially a building block. In anatomy, the basic structural unit of the body is the cell. All living organisms have cells, which start as the zygote-the single cell at the beginning of life, after a spermatazoon fertilizes an oocyte.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cells are considered the basic units of life in part because they come in discrete and easily recognizable packages. That’s because all cells are surrounded by a structure called the cell membrane-which, much like the walls of a house, serves as a clear boundary between the cell’s internal and external environments.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cells. Cells are the basic structural and functional unit of all life.
