The cell. It is the smallest unit that can carry out all life processes (metabolism, growth, reproduction). Cell theory states that all living organisms are made of cells and that cells arise from preexisting cells. Cells come in two main types: prokaryotic (no nucleus) and eukaryotic (nucleus and organelles).
