THE ROLE OF CELL FOR REGENERATION

Cell is a part of creature. All creature body arrange by the cell. A

cell is the simplest collection of matter that can live and is the

building unit of all living things. The cell is a membrane bound

unit that contains the basic molecules of life and which consists

of all living things.

The cell is the basic unit of life. In the modern world, they are the

smallest world that carries out all functions of life. All living

organisms are either single cell organisms, or multicellular

organisms composed of cells.

Cells are also defined as the smallest parts of animals or plants

that can function independently. Each animal or plant consists of

millions of cells.

Small objects are usually microscopic which are limited by

semipermeable membranes, usually contain one or more nuclei

1
and various other components, are able to be alone or interact

with other cells performing all the basic functions of life, and form

the smallest structural unit of life capable of functioning

independently.

More detailed cell definitions can be found in the book written by

Sherwood, "Human Physiology from cell to system". The cell is

the smallest unit of structure and function of a living creature

capable of carrying out processes related to life.

A cell can be an independent living entity. Bacteria and

amoebae, single-celled organisms, are examples of the simplest

forms of this independent life. Bacteria and amoeba are only a

cell but they live and are able to carry out life processes.

Approximately what size is that cell? Can Quipperian guess it? It

turns out that the cell size varies, ranging in diameter from 1 μm

- 100 μm with a volume of 1 - 1,000 μm3. Because it is so small,

cell observation cannot be done with the naked eye. Cells can

2
only be observed using two types of microscopes, namely light

and electron microscopy.

Prokaryotic cells are cells that do not have a nuclear membrane,

so the genetic material inside is not yet separated from the rest

of the cell. Examples of organisms that have prokaryotic cells

are Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, and Cyanobacteria. In addition

to the cell nucleus, prokaryotic cells have cell walls, plasma

membranes, ribosomes, plasmids, and movement organelles.

Eukaryotic cells are cells that already have a core membrane.

This is evidenced by already wrapped DNA and RNA with the

core membrane, so that it is separated from other cell

organelles.

If Quipperian is curious about the prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell

shape, here is the picture.

Protoplasm is a liquid contained in cells. The content contained

in the protoplasm, which is as follows:

3
  Water functions as a solvent for various substances, both

organic and inorganic.

 Mineral salts function in the process of osmosis, ATP

synthesis, and cofactors in enzyme activity.

 Gases include oxygen gas, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen.

 Proteins function as cell builders and catalysts for chemical

reactions in cells.

 Fat functions as a component of plasma membranes,

hormones, and vitamins.

 Carbohydrates function as energy sources and other

structural components of cell organelles.

 Nucleic acid functions to control all cell activity and carry

genetic information.

The cell wall is a rigid layer that surrounds the outside of the cell

membrane. Uniquely, this cell wall is only owned by plant cells

and some other organisms such as fungi, bacteria, and algae,

4
you know. Plant cell walls consist of three layers, namely the

middle lamela, primary cell walls, and secondary cell walls.

Cell wall compilers for each organism differ, for example

bacterial cell walls composed of peptidoglycan, archaebacteria

and fungi composed of glycoproteins and polysaccharides, and

fungi composed of glucosamine and chitin.
