BIOB10H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek, Genome Editing, Robert Hooke
Document Summary
To increase in knowledge in cell biology will affect you and society in general. Robert hooke i 1665 looked lenses through microscope and then found the cell. Anton van leeuwenhoek in 1674 examined pond water under microscope and found animalcules. Later, three scientist combined all this founding"s and coined the cell theory: all organism is composed of one or more cells, the cell is the structural unit of life, cells can arise only by division from preexisting cell. Cell use the genetic information in the form of dna. The cell movement is coordinated and moves an organelle or a set of through a designated route. Leading edge will move until it reaches another cell membrane and then, the mitotic will divide and form two daughter cells. Stimuli can be other cell or protein receptors. They bind to other receptors or chemical substances that are secreted by other cells. There are controls that allow the cells to receive message.
