Within the cytoplasm, there would still be ions and organic molecules, plus a network of protein fibers that help maintain the cellʼs shape, secure some organelles in specific positions, allow cytoplasm and vesicles to move within the cell, and enable cells within multicellular organisms to move.

Based on planes of division, the coccus shape can appear in several distinct arrangements: diplococcus, streptococcus, tetrad, sarcina, and staphylococcus. The bacillus shape can appear as a single bacillus, a streptobacillus, or a coccobacillus. The spiral shape can appear in several forms: vibrio, spirillum, and spirochete.

It is a primary means of nitrogen disposal, and conditions that affect the kidneys have the potential to affect the amount of urea in the blood.

Describe the different mechanisms employed by cells to transport materials across membranes: simple and facilitated diffusion, channel proteins, and active transport. Plasma membranes must allow certain substances to enter and leave a cell, and prevent some harmful materials from entering and some essential materials from leaving.

Describe the mechanisms and implications of different classes of genetic mutation (genome mutation, chromosome mutation, and gene mutation). Starting at the level of DNA, we will address how individual nucleotide changes can alter cellular process leading to the change of a cell (and therefore organismal) phenotype.
