Missing the beginning of the film. The film explores the structure and function of plant and animal cells using a microscope. It begins with observing onion cells, highlighting their components such ...

Animal and plant cells have different energy-producing structures inside them. For animals, that’s mitochondria, which convert chemical energy from food into a form that our cells can use. Plants and ...

In a world first that challenges what we thought we knew about biology, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that can photosynthesize. The breakthrough promises to revolutionize ...

A plant cell wall is arranged in layers and contains cellulose microfibrils, hemicellulose, pectin, lignin, and soluble protein. These components are organized into three major layers: the primary ...

The scientists tested different methods to see which encouraged the most tissue growth. They found that treating the seaweed ...

Researchers have developed artificial cell-like structures using inorganic matter that autonomously ingest, process, and push out material - recreating an essential function of living cells. Their ...

Find out how asparagus and vanilla orchids demonstrate the importance of cell walls in plant survival and adaptability.

Researchers have discovered that plants have independently evolved a family of immune proteins that are strikingly similar to animals. Although profoundly different in terms of physiology, habitat and ...

Just like in yeast and animal cells, vacuoles in plants are responsible for breaking down unwanted cellular components. At the same time, vacuoles in seeds also serve the opposite role—storing large ...

The team used human stem cells to create embryo-like structures dubbed “hematoids” that mirror some features of early human ...

Some cells, such as immune cells, are highly mobile—they constantly remodel their shape, migrate toward a wound that needs to ...
