| cell plate |
The precursor of the cell wall, formed as cytokinesis starts during cell division. The cell plate develops in the region of the equatorial plate and arises from membranes in the cytoplasm.

| cellulose nitrate |
A nitrated derivative of cellulose. It is made into membrane filters of defined porosity, used to immobilize DNA, RNA or protein, which can then be probed with a labelled sequence or antibody. These filters have a variety of uses in molecular biology, particularly in nucleic acid hybridization experiments. Used extensively in the Southern and northern blotting procedures involving DNA and RNA.

| cell division |
Formation of two or more daughter cells from a single mother cell. The nucleus divides first, followed by the formation of a cell membrane between the daughter nuclei. Division of cytoplasm and nucleus into two or more parts by formation of a cell plate.

| cell membrane |
The membrane that separates the cell wall and the cytoplasm, and regulates the flow of material into and out of the cell. See plasmalemma.
