However, do you know why a cell is a crucial structural and functional unit of life? It is because a cell is the smallest and individual living entity that carries on various life functions. The chapter &#8211; The Fundamental Unit of Life, deals with cells and other characteristics related to them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Cell and Its History<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aakash.ac.in\/important-concepts\/biology\/cell\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cells<\/a> are referred to as the building blocks of all living organisms. One cannot stress enough the importance of cells in the existence and sustenance of life on earth. Talking about its history, a scientist named Robert Hooke introduced the term cell in 1665. He took a slice of cork under his compound microscope. What he observed changed the entire history of science.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When he observed the cock slice under his microscope, he observed numerous small blocks that looked like the blocks of honeycomb. They were nothing but cells. It led to the discovery of cells, the fundamental unit that is essential to make life possible on earth.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Features of a Cell<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our bodies consist of numerous types of cells. Each cell contributes to the overall functioning of the body. Some characteristic properties of a cell are \u2013<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A cell is the smallest and basic unit of life.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A cell is not visible to the naked eye because of its minute size.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A cell can have different shapes and sizes within the same organism.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every organism possesses different types of cells.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All the active cells show and exhibit specific functions.

The glucose that we get from our food is absorbed by the cell and utilized to produce energy. In turn, the body receives energy in the form of ATP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Also See: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aakash.ac.in\/ncert-solutions\/class-9\/science\/chapter-5-fundamental-unit-of-life\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Science Fundamental Unit of Life<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>What are the Two Different Types of Cells Based on Their Number?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cells are diverse in nature.

Who first discovered cells?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Robert Hooke was the first scientist that discovered cells in 1665. He examined cork cells inside a compound microscope. Those cells appeared to him like the structures of a honeycomb. Later, the detailed view of a cell was discovered by Antoine Van Leuwenhoek through an electron microscope.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>2. A cell is known as the structural and functional unit of life. Explain<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A cell is the smallest entity that makes life possible on earth. It provides structure and performs various functions that lead to the existence of life. Every living organism is made of various types of cells performing various other functions.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from this, even the cell organelles present inside the cell perform significant functions that contribute to sustaining the life of the organism.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>3. How do different substances move in and out of the cell?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The plasma membrane or the cell membrane is said to be selectively permeable in nature. It means that it allows only selective materials to pass across it. The process responsible for the movement of specific molecules across the cell membrane is known as diffusion. Gas molecules like carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and oxygen can also move across the semipermeable membrane.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>4. What is the main function of lysosomes?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Lysosomes possess digestive enzymes that help the cell organelle to break down and get rid of unwanted cell material. The enzymatic action of lysosomes leads to the destruction of foreign materials That enter the cell.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>5. What will happen if the cell\/plasma membrane of a cell is destroyed?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The plasma membrane is responsible for protecting the insides of a cell. It acts as a perimeter that surrounds the cell and protects it from the external environment. However, if this cell structure is destroyed, it can compromise the other cell organelles inside the cell. The destruction of the plasma membrane can directly disrupt other cell functions like respiration, cell division, photosynthesis, and many others.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>6. The plasma membrane is a semi-permeable membrane. Explain the statement.<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Selective permeability or semi permeability is a characteristic related to the plasma membrane of a cell. This unique characteristic of the cell membrane allows it to regulate various substances in and out of the membrane. It means that this membrane allows the entry of substances that are required by the cell and inhibits the other substances that are not required by the cell.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fundamental unit of life refers to nothing but a cell.
