  2. Cellular extensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_extensions

    Cellular extensions also known as cytoplasmic protrusions and cytoplasmic processes are those structures that project from different cells, in the body, or in other organisms. Many of the extensions are cytoplasmic protrusions such as the axon and dendrite of a neuron, known also as cytoplasmic processes. Different glial cells project ...

  3. Cell theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_theory

    The central and rightmost cell are in interphase, so the entire nuclei are labeled. The cell on the left is going through mitosis and its DNA has condensed. In biology , cell theory is a scientific theory first formulated in the mid-nineteenth century, that living organisms are made up of cells , that they are the basic structural ...

  4. Cellular organizational structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_organizational...

    With them all in communication with at least one other person, as symbolized by the black lines, the top left individual is part of both a three-person project (area in light red) and a four-person project (area in teal). Organized in a cellular structure, the group may still have both of those projects survive even if the top left person drops ...

  5. Cell (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_(biology)

    The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of all forms of life. Every cell consists of cytoplasm enclosed within a membrane; many cells contain organelles, each with a specific function. The term comes from the Latin word cellula meaning 'small room'. Most cells are only visible under a microscope.

  6. Real projective space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_projective_space

    Real projective space RP n admits the structure of a CW complex with 1 cell in every dimension. In homogeneous coordinates (x 1... x n+1) on S n, the coordinate neighborhood U 1 = {(x 1... x n+1) | x 1 ≠ 0} can be identified with the interior of n-disk D n. When x i = 0, one has RP n−1.

  7. Quantum dot cellular automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_dot_cellular_automaton

    Note that the relative distances between cells and dots in a cell are not to scale (cells are much farther apart than dots within a cell). Grid arrangements of quantum-dot cells behave in ways that allow for computation. The simplest practical cell arrangement is given by placing quantum-dot cells in series, to the side of each other. Figure 4 ...

  8. Organelle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organelle

    In cell biology, an organelle is a specialized subunit, usually within a cell, that has a specific function.The name organelle comes from the idea that these structures are parts of cells, as organs are to the body, hence organelle, the suffix -elle being a diminutive.

  9. Pseudopodia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudopodia

    A common example of this type of amoeboid cell is the macrophage. They are also essential to amoeboid-like locomotion. Human mesenchymal stem cells are a good example of this function: these migratory cells are responsible for in-utero remodeling; for example, in the formation of the trilaminar germ disc during gastrulation .
