Tag: cell-the basic unit of life

If the appearance of complexity is concurrent with evolution then, human beings are more evolved and complex than bacteria. Humans are the multicellular organism with the well-developed brain. Bacteria is the primitive unicellular organism.

Safranin is a biological stain composed of azonium compounds, which is utilized to study histology and cytology. In particular, safranin stains lignified tissues like xylem even in the presence of cellulose particles. Fluorescent safranin staining is useful to stain the cell wall of woody plants and produce green or yellow fluorescence in the secondary cell wall and red or orange fluorescence in the middle lamella region under a fluorescent microscope. 

All cells usually have a fixed life span. The cells divide for a certain period of time, after which they die. This has been explained by the phrase "programmed cell death". The lifespan of each type of the body cells differ and it depends on the function it is destined to perform. Neurons are long lived and are generally non-mitotic. Memory T cells and memory B cells can provide long lasting immunity from exposure to antigens, they too are long lasting but their life span is less than that of a neuron.

PPLO is pleuropneumonia-like organisms. It has the diameter of 0.1 micrometer. It is the smallest known cell. 

The cell is the structural unit of life and its size ranges from 0.5 micrometers to 100 micrometers. An egg of ostrich is a single-celled structure and know as the largest cell in the world with the size of 130 mm-170 mm. Thus, the correct answer is option C.

In the eukaryotic cell, the nucleus is separated from the cytoplasm by a double lipid bilayer membrane known as a nuclear membrane. It encloses the genetic material of a cell. It is also known as karyotheca.

A eukaryotic cell has a nucleus bounded by a double wall membrane structure known as a nuclear membrane. The nuclear membrane has nuclear pore that regulates the exchange of materials between cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. The nucleus contains the chromatin threads and the nucleolus. The gel-like texture of the nucleoplasm embedded with chromatin threads gives it a dense appearance.

A eukaryotic cell has a nucleus, bounded by a double wall membrane structure known as a nuclear membrane. The nuclear membrane is a discontinuous membrane having nuclear pores, which act as a protein channel for regulating the exchange of materials between cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. It regulates the cell in various ways but, the primary function of the nucleus is to contribute in cell division during reproduction by undergoing karyokinesis.
So, the correct answer is option D.

The DNA is the genetic material of the organism which is present in the nucleus. The DNA is bound to the histone proteins and packaged in the nucleus. The DNA contains the segments of genes which encode for the proteins. This genetic information is present in the nucleus of the living cells.
