Parent topics
- Science [r]: The organized body of knowledge based on non–trivial refutable concepts that can be verified or rejected on the base of observation and experimentation [e]
- Biology [r]: The science of life — of complex, self-organizing, information-processing systems living in the past, present or future. [e]
- Cell biology [r]: The study of the components of biological cells and their interactions. [e]
- Life [r]: Living systems, of which biologists seek the commonalities distinguishing them from non-living systems. [e]
Subtopics
- Cell differentiation [r]: The process by which cells become structurally and functionally specialized. [e]
- Cell division [r]: The process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells. [e]
- Cell membrane [r]: The outer surface of a cell which encloses its contents. [e]
- Cell migration [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Cell nucleus [r]: Membrane-enclosed organelle found in eukaryotic cells, containing most of the cell's genetic material, organized as multiple long linear DNA molecules in complex with a large variety of proteins, such as histones, to form chromosomes. [e]
- Cell signalling [r]: The processing of information in a biological cell. [e]
- Chloroplast [r]: The green organelles found in many higher plant cells and protists. Internal thylakoid membranes contain chlorophyll where photosynthesis takes place. [e]
- Cytoskeleton [r]: The mechanical scaffold, made up of fibrous proteins, determining the shape of a cell. [e]
- Golgi apparatus [r]: An organelle in eukaryotic cells that modifies many proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum; it is named after Camillo Golgi who discovered it in 1898. [e]
- Ion channel [r]: Gated, ion-selective glycoproteins that traverse membranes. The stimulus for channel gating can be a membrane potential, drug, transmitter, cytoplasmic messenger, or a mechanical deformation. [e]
- Mitochondrium [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Organelle [r]: Specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific function, and is usually separately enclosed within its own lipid membrane, found in all eukaryotic cells. [e]
- Resting potential [r]: Potential difference between the two sides of the membrane of a nerve cell when the cell is not conducting an impulse, the resting potential for a neuron being between 50 and 100 millivolts. [e]
- Synapse [r]: Contact point between neurons and other cells, crucial for nerve signalling [e]
- Biochemistry [r]: The chemistry of living things; a field of both biology and chemistry. [e]
- Endosymbiotic theory [r]: Theory on the origins of mitochondria and plastids (e.g. chloroplasts), which are organelles of eukaryotic cells. [e]
- Immune system [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Microbiology [r]: The study of microorganisms (overlapping with areas of virology, bacteriology, mycology, and parasitology). [e]
- Microscope [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Molecular biology [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Origin of life [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Tissue [r]: Add brief definition or description
