An Amoeba is an example of a cell. In fact, an Amoeba is the only complete one cell organism; it is complete, and ready to carry out all life functions. This gives the Amoeba a position in the animal kingdom, and that sets it apart from all other cells. All other cells are specialized in their function, and cannot survive without support or symbiosis with other calls.

Consider another example of a cell; a Brain Cell within any mammal. Imagine all the billions of cells necessary to acquire food, feed the Brain Cell, and carry away its waste products, keep it protected.

So you see there a wide variety of cell, animal and plant, and many more that are sometimes difficult to classify.

A cell can be though of as a factory. Each factory has a product to make, and a set of instructions to follow to make that product. Each cell in the human body has a different set of instructions that result in the production of all the various products your body needs. Melanocytes, for example, are responsible for the production of melanin; this is the compound that changes your skin color. Interestingly, regardless of complexion (black, white or brown), we all have (on average) the same number of melanocytes. As such, they all produce the same quantity of melanin. What causes the different shades of human skin? It really depends on the melanosomes, cells that break the melanin down. In fair skinned people, exposure to the sun results in a delayed breakdown of melanin, while in darker skinned people, the melanain is not removed as quickly. In this case, the cells are not related to factories, but to packing centers - they need to pack a product up to ship, but must do it slower or faster depending on the needs of the "customer" (the body).
