The Cell is considered a basic unit of life. Explain.

I this this is a kinda cool prompt. It's for a bio project, just want to know what you guys think!

Serious Answers only please and thank you!

Cells are the basic building blocks of all living organisms. They carry nutrients and other things throughout all living things. The nutrients are what make organisms live, feed, and reproduce over time.

Cells have a common instinct to reproduce. This is how we get multicellular beings. Humans and animals are prime examples :)

Single celled brings are mainly plankton and phytoplankton that live in bodies of water such as lakes, ponds, and rivers.

That's all I have to offer ^.^ I hope this helps.

amoeba
the most well-known single-celled organism, entirely autonomous

rewind reality back many thousands of years and single celled organisms were all that survived

then cells become symbiotic, working with other cells to produce new proteins, better ways to reproduce and thus the eukaryotic organism was born

but even today as a person, you began as a zygote, a single celled, freshly fertilised basic unit but now it is only the beginning

i would not for one minute describe it as basic though, it is more complex than one could ever dream

good luck with you biology project
