Lecture 14: Cells
Cells are the basic structural and functional unit of all life on Earth.
This lecture reviews the basic building blocks of cells, the main
chemical components, the two basic types of cells (Prokaryotes and
Eukaryotes), and introduces the Phylogenetic Tree of Life, the way
biologists order life by their biochemical and genetic relationships.
Understanding life at the cellular level gives us important insights
into the nature and history of life on Earth, and clues as to what we
might look for elsewhere. Recorded live on 2009 Oct 13 in Room 1005
Smith Laboratory on the Columbus campus of The Ohio State University.
