The cell is the basic unit of life. The cell itself is made up of parts called organelles. Animal and plant cells may have different parts. This episode also talks about the microscope, what types there are, what the parts of the microscope are themselves. 

This episode talks about the parts of the cell in detail too as well as how you can see cells in a microscope from your cheek to plant cells from an onion.
