SAQ-1: What do you think will happen to your body if we do
not have cells?
 Is there even a body or life if we don’t have cells, if we don’t have cells you could not
make new cells, the cells in most of your body would wear out very quickly, greatly
shortening your life. Or when cells suddenly disappear then your body will just turn into
dust and your bones are only what’s left.

SAQ-2: if you are Rudolf Virchow, how are you going to

explain to us that cells come from pre-existing cells?
 Rudolf Virchow is scientist known for his statement
Omnis cellula e cellula published in 1855 which means all
cells arise from pre-existing cells, his work led to scientists
being able to diagnose diseases more accurately, if I was
Rudolf Virchow my explanation is quite simple, just
pretend that I’m Rudolf Virchow, I published my
statement Omnis cellula e cellula (all cells arise from pre-
existing cells) what is this mean you ask? Well is far from
the origin of the cell where cell just suddenly appear in
thin air in my statement cell doesn’t just magically appear
but cell multiply came from an another cell through the
process of cell division just like mama and dada made you,
while in the process of cell division, cell division has two
types Mitosis and meiosis, Mitosis divides the cell into two
identical daughter cells and meiosis occurs in gametes
which produces four genetically diverse cells.

 A.Short Essay
1. What you are seeing is a mitosis onion root tip and this is
part of a cell theory by Rudolf Virchow states that all cells
arise from pre-existing cells and has a process called cell
division such as mitosis and meiosis but let’s focus on
mitosis, mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into
two identical daughter cells and mitosis is further divided
into four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and
telophase these four phases are can be seen in the picture
that my science teacher prepared for me
2. If your cell is damaged it could cause cell death but the
body makes new cells to replace them but what if sufficient
cells are lost then the result can be tissue or organ failure,
ultimately leading to death of the organism.

SAQ-1: How is the structure of the cell organelles correlated to
its function?
 Cell have tiny little structures inside of them called
“Organelles”, organelles is like an organ of a human body
that keeps the cell alive and they have specific and
important roles like the nucleus of an eukaryotic cell is
directing all cell activities and stores DNA or cytoplasm
that provides structure to cell and acts as a buffer and
protects the genetic material of the cell and also the cellular
organelles from damage caused due to movement and
collision with other cells.
SAQ-2: If you are part of the cell, which one are you and why?
 I wish to be in control so I pick to be a nucleus, because it
is a command center, or a brain that tells other cells or
direct them to grow, mature, divide, or die

a. How the structure of the nucleus can facilitates its delivery of its
function?
 The nucleus controls and regulates the activities of the cell, its
structure support those function and inside its fully enclosed
nuclear membrane, it contains the majority of the cell's genetic
material. This material is organized as DNA molecules, along with
a variety of proteins, to form chromosomes.

b. Why can mRNA translation cannot be done inside the nucleus?

 Well in Prokaryotic cells translation and transcription are coupled
because there is no nucleus to separate the processes of
transcription and translation, when bacterial genes are
transcribed, their transcripts can immediately be translated, while
in Eukaryotic cells transcription and translation are spatially and
temporally separated in eukaryotic cells; that is, transcription
occurs in the nucleus to produce a pre-mRNA molecule then the
pre-mRNA is typically processed to produce the mature mRNA,
which exits the nucleus and is translated in the cytoplasm or in the
ribosome so why can mRNA translation cannot occur inside the
nucleus? Let’s base it in the two types of cells Prokaryotic cells has
no nucleus so translation can’t be separated from transcription but
in eukaryotic cells has a nucleus that separates the translation and
the transcription so there for transcription and translation of RNA
in eukaryotic cell can be done simultaneously.
2. Most of the cell organelles are membrane-bound. The lysosome is
also a membrane-bound organelle. What do you think will happen if
its membrane will be damaged?
 well lysosome is an membrane-bound cell organelle specifically a
type of organelle that's very acidic and needs to be protected from
the rest of the inside of the cell also lysosome has a membrane
around it that stores the digestive enzymes that require this acid,
 low-pH environment so if it break, leak or damaged acid will spill
and reach out the interior of the cell in this case the cell will die.
