The basic living unit of body tissue. It contains a nucleus surrounded by cytoplasm and is enclosed by a membrane.
In DVD-Video, a unit of video anywhere from a fraction of a second to hours long. Cells allow the video to be grouped for sharing content among titles, interleaving for multiple angles, and so on.
The smallest component of a table. In a table, a row contains one or more cells.
The basic geographical unit of a cellular phone system. It derives its name from the honeycomb pattern of cell site installations.
A cell is the smallest unit of life. Body tissues and organs are made up of cells, and cells circulate in the blood.
The basic unit for ATM switching and multiplexing. Cells contain identifiers that specify the data stream to which they belong. Each cell consists of a 5-byte header and 48 bytes of payload. See also cell relay.
The smallest, microscopic, structure in wood.
A cell is a unit of data transmitted over an ATM network.
The smallest unit of living matter capable of maintenance and reproduction. It contains DNA and an organized set of chemical reactions necessary for self perpetuation.
Basic structure of all living things; a complex mass of protoplasm surrounded by a cell membrane.
An area in which mobile phone has service. Also an energy-storing unit.
The smallest functional structural unit of living matter. Cells are classed as either procaryotic and eucaryotic.
the basic building blocks that make up the human body. Each cell has a nucleus that contains a copy of the genetic material
A small structural unit, surrounded by a membrane, making up living things.
The cell is the structural and functional unit of all living organisms, sometimes called the "building blocks of life." Some organisms, such as bacteria, are unicellular, consisting of a single cell. Other organisms, such as humans, are multicellular, (humans have an estimated 100,000 billion = 1014 cells). The cell theory, first developed in the 19th century, states that all organisms are composed of one or more cells; all cells come from preexisting cells; all vital functions of an organism occur within cells and that cells contain the hereditary information necessary for regulating cell functions and for transmitting information to the next generation of cells.
any one of the minute protoplasmic masses that make up organized tissue, consisting of a nucleus which is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains the various organelles and is enclosed in the cell or plasma membrane.
An independently administered collection of file server and client machines running DCE or AFS. An AFS cell is equivalent to a Kerberos V4 realm.
The basic unit of any living organism that carries on the biochemical processes of life.
In biology a structure surrounded by a membrane and containing genetic material(DNA) on the inside. These structures are capable of self maintenance, self replication, metabolism, homeostasis, and response to the environment. These structures are considered by most biologist to be the basic unit of life.
A single unit of an electrochemical device capable of producing direct voltage by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. A battery usually consists of several cells electrically connected together to produce higher voltages. (Sometimes the terms cell and battery are used interchangeably).
structural unit of every organism.
the smallest biological unit of specialized function in the body. A cell consists of numerous sub-structures running the metabolism of the cell. The nucleus, containing the chromosomes/DNA, is a specialized compartment within the cytoplasm.
one of the tiny units that are the basic building blocks of living things, that carry on the basic functions of life either alone or in groups, and that include a nucleus and are surrounded by a membrane
The fundamental unit of all organisms; the smallest structural unit capable of independent functioning.
A cell is the smallest self-functioning unit found in living organisms. Each cell is enclosed by an outer membrane or wall and contains genetic material ( DNA) and other parts to carry out its life functions. Some organisms such as bacteria consist of only one cell, but most of the organisms found on the Earth are made up of many cells.
The smallest structural unit of living material.
A small portion of a chapter on a DVD, the most basic unit used for navigational purposes.
Smallest unit of living matter able to grow and reproduce independently. Cells contain DNA for storing information, ribosomes for making proteins, and mechanisms for converting energy.
A 53-byte protocol data unit (PDU) used in ATM technology for transporting information. Its fixed size contains a 5-octet header and a 48-octet body. See also PDU.
the smallest portion of living matter, a single unit. All living things are made entirely by cells of various kinds.
Battery elements with electrolyte and container.
A single unit that transforms chemical energy into electrical energy. Batteries are made up of cells. [ Battery Manufacturers
A cell is the smallest part of a cross-tab and is specified by its column and row.
the basic unit of all living things
The hollow space within a concrete masonry unit formed by the face shells and webs. Also called core.
This term is used as a minimum unit of the 2-dimensional symbol.
Unit of protoplasm, the essential living matter of all plants and animals.
The cell is the structural and functional unit of all living organisms, and is sometimes called the "building block of life."http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Search&db=books&doptcmdl=GenBookHL&term=Cell+Movements+and+the+Shaping+of+the+Vertebrate+Body+AND+mboc4%5Bbook%5D+AND+374635%5Buid%5D&rid=mboc4.section.3919 Cell Movements and the Shaping of the Vertebrate Body in Chapter 21 of http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Search&db=books&doptcmdl=GenBookHL&term=cell+biology+AND+mboc4%5Bbook%5D+AND+373693%5Buid%5D&rid=mboc4 Molecular Biology of the Cell fourth edition, edited by Bruce Alberts (2002) published by Garland Science. The Alberts text discusses how the "cellular building blocks" move to shape developing embryos. It is also common to describe small molecules such as amino acids as "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Search&db=books&doptcmdl=GenBookHL&term=%22all+cells%22+AND+mboc4%5Bbook%5D+AND+372023%5Buid%5D&rid=mboc4.section.4#23 molecular building blocks".
