Examples: The suit was faultless: Wood _____________ed that he was a very successful publisher or a banker. You can only ___________ at what mental suffering they endure.



    A _________________ is the smallest part of an animal or plant that is able to function independently. Every animal or plant is made up of millions of cells. Examples: Those _____________s divide and give many other different types of cells. ...blood ____________s... Soap destroys the _____________ walls of bacteria.
    Also a cell is a small room in which a prisoner is locked. A ___________ is also a small room in which a monk or nun lives. You can refer to a small group of people within a larger organization as a ____________.
    Example: ...Communist Party ________________s.


    __________________ is the science which is concerned with the study of living things. Example:
    ...biologists studying the fruit fly. The ______________ of a living thing is the way in which its body or cells behave. Example: The ______________of these diseases is terribly complicated.


    The ________________ is the structural and functional unit of all known living organisms. It is the smallest unit of an organism that is classified as living, and is sometimes called the building block of life.[1] Some organisms, such as most bacteria, are unicellular (consist of a single cell). Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular. (Humans have an estimated 100 trillion or 1014 cells; a typical cell size is 10 µm; a typical cell mass is 1 nanogram.) The largest known cell is an ostrich egg. In 1837 before the final cell theory was developed, a Czech Jan Evangelista Purkyně observed small "granules" while looking at the plant tissue through a microscope. The cell theory, first developed in 1839 by Matthias Jakob Schleiden and Theodor Schwann, states that all organisms are composed of one or more cells. All cells come from preexisting cells. Vital functions of an organism occur within cells, and all cells contain the hereditary information necessary for regulating cell functions and for transmitting information to the next generation of cells.[2]
    The word cell comes from the Latin cellula, meaning, a small room. The descriptive name for the smallest living biological structure was chosen by Robert Hooke in a book he published in 1665 when he compared the cork cells he saw through his microscope to the small rooms monks lived in.[3]

    The Alberts text discusses how the "cellular building blocks" move to shape developing embryos. It is also common to describe small molecules such as amino acids as "molecular building blocks".

I could exceedingly plainly perceive it to be all perforated and porous, much like a Honey-comb, but that the pores of it were not regular [..] these pores, or cells, [..] were indeed the first microscopical pores I ever saw, and perhaps, that were ever seen, for I had not met with any Writer or Person, that had made any mention of them before this. . ." – Hooke describing his observations on a thin slice of cork.
