Matthias Scheilden and Theodore Schwann: 'All living organisms are made up of cells or the products of the cells. Cells are the fundamental building blocks. Newcells are formed through division in the preexistingcells.'
Prokaryotic
Notruenucleus - bacteria and Archaea. Produce asexual and sexually, haploid, binaryfission, unicellular

True nucleus - protozoa, fungi, plants, animals.Unicellular and multicellular, paireddiploid, cell division by mitosis
Eukaryotic cell structures
Nuclear pore
Chromatin
Nucleus
Nucleoplasm
Nuclear envelope or membrane
Ribosome
Rough endoplasmic reticulum

Digestive system
Converts food into its simplest form. Nutrients from food is absorbed in bloodstream in small intestine and carried to cells in the body. The digestive system is a tubular system that extends from mouth to anus.
Digestive system components
Mouth
Pharynx
Epiglottis
Esophagus
Stomach
Small intestine
Large intestine
Accessory digestive organs
Teeth
Tongue
Salivary glands
Liver
Gallbladder
Pancreas
Sphincter
A ring-shaped muscle that relaxes or tightens to open or close a passage or opening in the body
Bolus
Food that is broken down or chewed and swallowed into the pharynx
Peristalsis
The rhythmic contraction of smooth muscle that pushes the bolus down to the stomach
Functions of the digestive system
Ingestion
Secretion
Mixing and propulsion
Digestion
Absorption
Defecation
Digestive glands of carnivorous plants
Secrete mucilage, pitcher fluids, acids, and proteins, including digestive enzymes
Digestive system of mollusk
Composed of a mouth, radula, odontophore, stomach, and anus
The radula, with its associated teeth, are responsible for scraping food off surfaces and into the mollusk's mouth
Odontophore is the cartilage which underlies and supports the radula, a ribbon of teeth
Insect's digestive system
A closed system, with one long enclosed coiled tube called the alimentary canal which runs lengthwise through the body
The alimentary canal only allows food to enter the mouth, and then gets processed as it travels toward the anus
Gastric caeca
Provide extra surface area for secretion of enzymes or absorption of water
Crop
Insect gut
Digestive system of amphibians
Has two major components, a digestive tract, and digestive glands
The digestive tract starts from the mouth and ends as the anus, emptying into the cloaca
Pithing
A procedure used in laboratories to immobilize a biological specimen, for instance a frog. A needle is inserted through the rear base of the skull and wiggled, destroying the brain. It is relatively painless to the frog.
