Introduction
The goal of this exercise is to introduce you to the kinds of cells that make up all living systems, and to contrast cells with viruses. You should be able to name the six kingdoms, understand the differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and be able to describe the basic functions of the eukaryotic cell organelles.
