Study Notes
The Microscope and Cells
- Robert Hooke used a microscope to observe cork cells
- Cells are the fundamental units of all living organisms
- Cells from different plants and animals vary in shape and structure
- Differences in cells are due to their specific functions
- Cells work together to form tissues and organs
- Tissues and organs perform specific tasks in organisms
Plant Cells
- All plants are composed of cells
- Plant cells, like other cells, are responsible for protecting the organism, obtaining nutrients, and other vital functions
- Plant cells contain chemical elements
- Unicellular organisms, such as bacteria (see Fig. 6.2), are composed of a single cell
- Multicellular organisms, such as many plants and animals, are composed of multiple cells
