Redirect to:

Cell biology

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

From a related word or phrase: This is a redirect from a word or phrase (term) to a page title that is related in some way. This redirect might be a good search term, or it could be a candidate for a Wiktionary link.
- Redirects from related words are not properly redirects from alternative spellings of the same word. They are also different from redirects that are subtopics or related topics, because unlike those, a related word or phrase probably does not warrant its own subtopic section in the target page or possess the possibility of ever becoming an article, template, project page, and so forth.

With possibilities: This is a redirect from a title that potentially could be expanded into a new article or other type of associated page such as a new template. The topic described by this title may be more detailed than is currently provided on the target page or in a section of that page.
- When the target page becomes too large, or for any reason a new page would be an improvement, this redirect may be replaced with an article, template or other project page that is carved out of the target page. See also {{R to section}} and use together with this rcat when appropriate.
- If the topic of the redirect is not susceptible to expansion, then use other rcats such as {{R to section}} or {{R to list entry}} when appropriate.
- Since a new page may be created, links to this redirect should not be replaced with a direct link to the target page. To make redirects to this page, use {{R avoided double redirect}}.
- {{R printworthy}} should be used together with this template when applied to a redirect in mainspace.
- When used on a template redirect, it will automatically populate Category:Template redirects with possibilities.

From a printworthy page title: This is a redirect from a title that would be helpful in a printed or CD/DVD version of Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Printability and Version 1.0 Editorial Team for more information.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

-== Cell Structure ==
-[[File:Animal Cell Structure.png|thumb|Structure of an animal cell]]
-There are two fundamental classifications of cells: [[Prokaryote]]s and [[Eukaryote]]s. The major difference between the two is the presence and/or absence of organelles. Other factors such as size, they way in which they reproduce, and number of cells distinguish them from one another.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Doble|first1=Mukesh|last2=Gummadi|first2=Sathyanarayana N.|title=Biochemical Engineering|date=August 5, 2010|publisher=Prentice-Hall of India Pvt.Ltd|location=New Delhi|isbn=978-8120330528|accessdate=5 November 2016}}</ref> Eukaryotic cells include animal, plant, fungi, and protozoa cells which all have a nucleus enclosed by a membrane. Prokaryotic cells, lacking an enclosed nucleus, include bacteria and [[archaea]]. Prokaryotic cells are much smaller than Eukaryotic cells, making prokaryotic cells the smallest form of life.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Kaneshiro|first1=Edna|title=Cell Physiology Sourcebook: A Molecular Approach|date=May 2, 2001|publisher=Academic Press|isbn=978-0123877383|edition=3|accessdate=5 November 2016}}</ref> Cytologists typically focus on Eukaryotic cells whereas Prokaryotic cells are the focus of [[microbiologist]]s, but this is not always the case.
