Since the third or fourth grade, I’ve been studying cell parts and their functions just for basic science classes. We learn that the nucleus is the brain, mitochondria is the powerhouse, and that cytoplasm is the jelly that holds it all in place. I never imagined how extensive the life of a cell actually was….

Cell Death and Complex Life As a cell goes through the cell cycle, it has to pass checkpoints to move onto the next stage. If the cell fails one of those checkpoints, the cell is flagged to be destroyed so that it doesn’t affect the cell cycle or any other functions in the body. Apoptosis…

I chose to draw a sugar biomolecule. There is a glucose monosaccharide, a sucrose disaccharide, and an amylose polysaccharide.

This is a very basic drawing of an animal cell. This is typically what we drew and looked at back in elementary, middle, and high school. An animal cell includes a cell membrane, cytoplasm, a nucleus and nucleolus, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, mitochondria, and ribosomes.
