Explore the mysteries of science, guide inquiry-based learning, emphasizing knowledge, skills, and methods equally, with hands-on, brain-stimulating, and fun activities. Cells complete essential activities of organisms, such as growth and repairing damaged areas, by consuming energy. In a single organism, cells often work together simultaneously. For example, when you are reading this article, not only are your eye and brain cells working, but so are other cells in your body. Your intestinal cells are digesting food, and blood cells are transporting compounds within your body. If you get injured at this time, there will also be some cells to "repair" this wound.
