Cell physiology is the study of the functions and activities of cells, which are the basic building blocks of all living organisms. This field of research explores how cells carry out essential processes such as metabolism, growth, division, communication, and response to external stimuli. Cell physiology also investigates the mechanisms by which cells maintain homeostasis and adapt to changing environmental conditions. By studying cell physiology, scientists can gain insights into the fundamental processes that govern life and health, as well as the mechanisms underlying diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disorders.
