concentration through a semipermeable membrane

CASE STUDY BASED QUESTIONS
All living Organisms are made up of cells and these cells perform all the functions essential for the survival of
the Organism e.g., Respiration, digestion, excretion etc. In Unicellular organisms, a single cell carries out all
these functions and in multicellular organisms’ different group of cells carry out different functions. Cells were
first discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665. He observed the cells in a cork slice with the help of a primitive
microscope. Leeuwenhoek (1674), with the improved microscope, discovered the free-living cells in pond water
for the first time. It was Robert Brown in 1831 who discovered the nucleus in the cell. Purkinje in 1839 coined
the term ‘protoplasm’ for the fluid substance of the cell.

(3) Who coined the term ‘Protoplasm’?
(a) Robert Hooke (b) Leeuwenhoek
(c) Robert Brown (d) Purkinje
(4) What is protoplasm?
(a) Unit of life (b) Cell organelle
(c) Fluid substance of the cell. (d) Cytoplasm
(5) Which of these statements is true about the cell?
(a) All organisms are made up of cell (b) Cell is the basic unit of life
(c) Cell is responsible for different metabolic functions (d) All above
