    The term cell usually refers to the smallest functional unit of living beings.

    a small room with a bunk bed attatched to the floor, a sink, a rudimentary toilet, and perhaps a shelf..it may have a barred window.  One side of the room has bars and a door made out of bars.  Used to retain Prisoners.  The above cell would be found in a general population wing of a prison.


    A cell can also describe a small group of individuals all working cooperatively to meet a goal.  A CIA  cell, military cell (etc) would be working quietly and cooperatively to capture, kill, or rescue an individual or small # of people.
