I. Cellular biologyA cell is the smallest unit that can be considered alive and that can reproduce on its own. Cells are related to biology because cells are found in everything that is alive from a simple bacteria to a more complex set of organs like a human.

IV. Types of CellsProkaryotic cells are different from eukaryotic cells because prokaryotes are bacteria cells and eukaryotes are plant or animal cells. eukaryotes have linear DNA, more than one chromosome, larger ribosome, and the cell has a nucleus. The prokaryote has DNA in its nucleoid, has circular DNA, the cell has one chromosome, and it has no nucleus. they both have in common in that they both have vesicles, vacuoles, both the cells are encased in a plasma membrane, and both the cells are filled with cytoplasm.

II. How big are Objects in the Biological World?
How big are objects in the biological world? Summarize what you learned by visualizing structures online and the metric system.
Why is the metric system used for science? How was it developed and how is it manipulated?

III. Levels of Organization
The unit of an element that still retains its properties is a atom. When two or more atoms join together they form a molecule. A cell is the smallest unit that can live and reproduce on its own. Tissue consists of certain types and proportions of cells interacting in some way.
