Answer 2

A lot of times large problems, i.e. diseases, can be traced all the way back to tiny malfunctions occuring within a cell.

Answer 3

One reason is that certain conditions, like cancers and precancerous conditions can be determined by studying cell morphology which is important for early detection. Cells contain a lot of information, most important I think is DNA. There are two types of cell in the first stages of cell division. Body cells and s*x cells. Body cells divide by a process called Mitosis and s*x cells by Meiosis.

Body cells progress into becoming body organs like skin, glands; all have cells defining its unique tissue type.These are only a couple of reasons, but I can assure you that there are an infinite number of reasons to study cells that date back to the beginning.
