Biology Cell Response

     A picture of a plant cell sits casually on my biology textbook. It just sits still, provoking a staring contest with me (Not winning either). The article states that the cell is like nightmarish place that contains massive amounts of activity that creates electricity every moment. A physicist called James Trefil compared a cell to "a complex chemical refinery" and a biochemist called Guy Brown compared it to "a vast, teeming metropolis". Either way, it is surprising a simple picture of a generalized cell is teeming with life and activity that sustains us every moment of our life.

     Each cells carry genetic codes in their nucleus. These genetic codes are just like instruction manual for the body. Can you imagine if your life was planned ahead by an instruction manual? I suppose it gets the job done, but its pretty restricted. However, this is how cells work, and we're alive and healthy right now aren't we? The article described our cell as a country that contains trillions of cells that will devote and die at your command. Or rather, a command from hormones. After reading that particular paragraph, cells now look like soldiers in a war. Dying with great dignity for the better, and by "dividing", they're like a rebel who divided apart from our benefit to attempt to overthrow our health.  

Heres Obama approving the post : )
