The cell is the smallest unit of life capable of independently reproducing itself. A bacterium is a simple cell without a nucleus to protect its genetic information. A virus requires structures in a cell's cytoplasm to assemble copies of itself. There is no consensus on the number of cells in a human body, the number ranges from 10 to 100 trillion cells.[1]
