Document Summary

Cell biology is an academic discipline that studies cells, the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known organisms: trying to understand the fundamental organization of this basic unit of life. Cell biologists look at all aspects of the cell. Determine what is normal so we can fix the abnormal . Ultimate goal: to understand how macromolecular systems and organelles work and cooperate to enable cells to functional autonomously and in tissues. A cell is material contained within one plasma membrane. Different cells will have different components, but there are common. Autonomous means a cell can do things on its own (knows how to use. Working with in a tissue organelles its dna, make rna and protein) Need the tools and methods to isolate and maintain cells in vitro (in glass: petri dish. Need to know how to separate cell organelles and how to view cells.
