Planctomycetes form a distinctive phylum of the Bacteria, having a unique combination of features such as peptidoglycan-lacking proteinaceous cell walls, and intracellular membranes that form separate ...

Researchers have found striking parallels between how archaeal cells and more complex cells, including humans' and animals', package and store their genetic material. The breakthrough study provided ...

A colorful, intricate diagram circulating on social media is being presented as a groundbreaking picture of a human cell. "This photo is the most detailed model of a human cell to date, obtained using ...

Cells with nuclei are known as eukaryotic cells, the cells that make up animals, plants and yeast. The nucleus is the organelle that contains the majority of the cell's genetic material, where it is ...

Bacteria are amongst the simplest of organisms - they are made of single cells. Their cell structure is simpler than the cells of animals, plants and fungi. Size Most are 5 μm - 100 μm. Most are 0.2 ...
