Study Notes

Living Organisms

Living organisms, including fruit trees, rainforests, houseflies, fish, birds, cats, and dogs, are all composed of cells.
Cells interact with each other to form different parts of an organism, creating its whole body.
Robert Hooke, an English scientist, first described cells in the 17th century, observing compartments (cells) and their boundaries in cork slices.

Plant Types

Plants are diverse but all have cellular structures.
Some plant structures protect organisms from external factors, while others are involved in reproduction.
All cells are enclosed by a membrane and contain internal components.
Many organisms are single-celled, like bacteria.
Other organisms are multicellular, like many plants and animals.
All organisms contain the same chemical elements.
