,Chapter 1: CELLS: THE FUNDAMENTALUNITSOF LIFE
Unity And Diversity Of Cells
Living Systems Are Incredibly Diverse In Size, Shape, Environment, And Behavior. It Is Estimated That
There Are Between 10 Million And 100 Million Different Species. Despite This Wide Variety Of
Organisms, It Remains Difficult To Define What It Means To Say Something Is Alive. Which Of The
Following Can Be Described As The Smallest Living Unit?
DNA
Cell
Organelle
Protein
Indicate Whether The Following Statements Are True Or False. If The Statement Is False, Explain Why It
Is False.
The Paramecium Is A Multicellular Microorganism Covered With Hair-Like Cilia.
Cells Of Different Types Can Have Different Chemical Requirements.
The Branchlike Extensions That Sprout From A Single Nerve Cell In A Mammalian Brain Can Extend
Over Several Hundred Micrometers.
For Each Of The Following Sentences, Fill In The Blanks With The Best Word Or Phrase Selected From
The List Below. Not All Words Or Phrases Will Be Used; Each Word Or Phrase Should Be Used Only
Once.
Cells Can Be Very Diverse: Superficially, They Come In Various Sizes, Ranging From Bacterial Cells
Such As Lactobacillus, Which Is A Few In Length, To Larger Cells Such As A Frog’s Egg, Which Has A
Diameter Of About One .Despite The Diversity, Cells Resemble Each Other To An Astonishing
Degree In Their Chemistry. For Example, The Same 20 Are Used To Make Proteins.
Similarly, The Genetic Information Of All Cells Is Stored In Their . Although
