The cell was first discovered and named by Robert
Hooke in 1665. He remarked that it looked strangely
similar to cellular or small rooms which monks
inhabited, thus deriving the name. However what
Hooke actually saw was the dead cell walls of plant

Mitosis is the process by which a cell replicates its
chromosomes and then segregates them, producing
two identical nuclei in preparation for cell division.
Mitosis is generally followed by equal division of the
cell's content into two daughter cells that have
identical genomes.

Binary fission is mitosis but for bacteria


There are two main types of cells: prokaryotic cells
and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells include
bacteria and archaea. Prokaryotes—organisms
composed of a prokaryotic cell—are always
single-celled (unicellular). Prokaryotic cells don't
contain a nucleus.
Muscle cells need lots of mitochondria.
