branches of biology and medicine concerned with the structure and function of plant and animal cells is called___________?
Correct answer: D. Cytology
- A. Nephrology
- B. Semiology
- C. Orology
- D. Cytology
Explanation
Cytology is the branch of biology concerned with the structure and function of cells, including plant and animal cells. Nephrology studies the kidneys, semiology concerns signs and symptoms, and orology is associated with the study of mountains or gold depending on usage, not cells. Students may choose nephrology because it sounds like a biological field, but it is organ-specific rather than cell-specific.

About Animal and Plant Cell
Animal and plant cells share a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, ribosomes, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum, but plant cells also have a cellulose cell wall, chloroplasts and a large permanent vacuole. Questions cover organelle structure and function, differences between the two cell types, and how membranes control movement of substances.
