Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. The deposition or aggregation of coloring matter in a cell. The aggregation of coloring matter in a particular location in a cell, occurring in response to some external stimulus.
