It is important to know the component of cell i.e Plasma Membrane, Cell Wall, Nucleus, Cytoplasm, Ribosomes, Golgi bodies, Mitochondria, Lysosomes, and Plastids etc. Image courtesy: ...

Cells are the building blocks of life, and they come in various shapes and sizes. All living organisms are made up of cells and these cells have various similarities and differences. They are ...

When I learned biology at high school, the textbook clearly stated — as one of the many differences between animal and plant cells — that the Golgi apparatus is present in animal cells, whereas it is ...

Plant stem cells, as in animals, are maintained in specialized microenvironments, which are known as stem cell niches, where local signals from organizer cells act to prevent stem cell differentiation ...

A new study shows that the behavior of stem cells in plants and animals is surprisingly similar. The researchers were able to produce mathematical equations that reveal very small differences in the ...

Human chromosomes behave in much the same way as those of rodents, primates, and other close evolutionary cousins. But researchers don’t know whether those similarities might extend to distantly ...

Scientists in Japan have created hybrid plant-animal cells, essentially making animal cells that can gain energy from sunlight like plants. The breakthrough could have major benefits for growing ...

Cells are the smallest unit of life and the building blocks for all organisms. Each component of a cell has its own function. Animal and plant cells differ and they have similarities. Nucleus, cell ...
