The cell is the basic unit of life. This means that our body is made up of cells. It is an organism that keeps our body alive by performing certain functions. Just like the nucleus, which is like the cell’s brain. It tells the cell what to do. Another part is the mitochondria, which is like the cell’s power plant. It makes energy so the cell can do its work.

While the mitochondria make energy, the cell itself is more like a tiny factory. It uses the energy from the mitochondria to create all the things our bodies need to survive.
