Are cells only found in complex life forms?

No, cells are found in both simple and complex life forms. All living organisms, from single-celled bacteria to multicellular animals and plants, are composed of cells as the basic units of structure and function.


Is DNA found in plant cells or animal cells?

DNA is found in both plant cells and animal cells. It is a fundamental molecule that carries genetic information and is contained within the nucleus of a cell in a structure called the chromosome.


What cells are usually smaller and are found in simpler forms of life?

Prokaryotic cells are usually smaller and are found in simpler forms of life, such as bacteria and archaea. These cells lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, which distinguishes them from the larger, more complex eukaryotic cells found in plants, animals, and fungi. Prokaryotic cells typically range from 0.1 to 5.0 micrometers in size, allowing them to reproduce rapidly and adapt to various environments.


Do cells depend on the brain to divide.?

not exactly, cells contain a nucleas which contains DNA and RNA. Cells in mamalian animals(including humans) are controlled by electric impluses aswell as neurotransmitters.


What are differentiated cells and which organisms have these cells?

Differentiated cells are specialized cells that have developed distinct structures and functions to perform specific tasks within an organism. These cells arise from stem cells and are found in multicellular organisms, including animals, plants, and fungi. Examples include muscle cells, nerve cells, and epithelial cells in animals, as well as xylem and phloem cells in plants. In contrast, unicellular organisms typically do not have differentiated cells, as each cell must carry out all life processes independently.

Is it true that each new daughter cell has a different genetic code than the mother cell?

Each daughter cell has the exact same genetic code as the parent cell in mitosis. This is why cells that become old or damaged can be replaced during one's life.


Which organelles support life processes in plant cells but are not found in animal cells?

chloroplasts

What is a real life example of chlororplast?

A real life example is the chloroplasts found in plant cells.


What are the there listed points of the cell theory?

The three listed points of the cell theory would be that cells are the building blocks of life, all life is composed of cells, and all cells come from preexisting cells. These were found by different people.

Do you need both RNA and DNA to live?

Yes. DNA is the genetic code for an organism found in the nucleus of most cells. It codes for and thus determines all our traits and essential proteins, cells etc. RNA is is essential for life because it plays a central role in protein synthesis.

What is the life cycle of an epidermal cell?

The cells on the epidermis have definite life cycle. Each epidermal cell begins life deep in the epidermis, where cells divide to form new cells. The new cells gradually mature and move upwards in the epidermis as new cells form beneath them. After about two weeks, the cells die and become part of the surface layer of the epidermis. Hope this helps!!
