Cell is the fundamental structural and functional unit of all living organisms because:

1. Anything less than a complete structure of a cell does not ensure independent living.
2. The metabolic reactions can only occur inside a living cell.
3. Nucleic acids present in the cells ensure living state.
4. The membrane bound organelles cause differentiation for proper functioning.
