184. THE LIFE PROCESSES 



The simple cell is the foundation of all life. Thus the life 

 of a plant, or an animal, is composed of the lives of an almost 

 infinite number of cell lives. What affects the cell affects the 

 whole plant or animal, and therefore a better understanding 

 of the elementary life is necessary if we are to comprehend 

 the life processes of higher plants and animals. Just as the 

 molecule is the smallest portion of matter which can exist 

 alone, so the cell is the smallest portion of matter which can 



have life. The cell is composed of protoplasm.
