Organisms can be classified as unicellular (consisting of a single cell; including bacteria) or multicellular (including plants and animals). Cell study is done on both microscopic and macroscopic level. Research in cell biology is closely related to genetics, biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology, and developmental biology
