cell The fundamental autonomous unit of plant and animal bodies, consisting of, at least, a cell membrane containing cytoplasm and nuclear material, but often having a more complex structure. Simple organisms are unicellular, but more complex organisms consist of many co-operating cells. Characteristically, in plants, but not in animals, cells are surrounded by a polysaccharide wall.
