That is what I hope this page provides. Please let me know if any information is incorrect or outdated. The human body contains millions of cells. A cell is the basic unit of structure and function in an organism. Cells are like bricks that make a building.
Cells are the basic building blocks of organisms.
Every organism is made of cells and every cell comes from another cell. This idea is called cell theory. All cells are alike in some way. A cell membrane is a thin layer that surrounds and holds that parts of a cell together. It is made of proteins and fats.
