Abstract
In this chapter, we look at the fundamental unit of the human body: the cell. We will examine how cells are constructed, what they are made of and how we can analyse simple chemical processes using reaction equations. Finally, we briefly examine they key reactions that contribute to cellular metabolism This chapter provides the foundation for all the following chapters, as we describe how cells behave and interact with each other to form larger systems. ? 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
