Cellular cryptogams (gcide) | Cellular \Cel"lu*lar\ (s[e^]l"[u^]*l[~e]r; 135), a. [L. cellula
    a little cell: cf. F. cellulaire. See Cellule.]
    1. Consisting of, or containing, cells; of or pertaining to a
       cell or cells.
       [1913 Webster]
 
    2. porous; containing cavities.
       [PJC]
 
    3. pertaining to or using a system of transmission of
       telephone signals by radio, in which areas are divided
       into geographical parts (cells), each of which is served
       by a transmitter whose range is limited to that region,
       thus permitting a single transmission frequency to be used
       simulataneously in different parts of the same area.
       Cellular telephones are typically small and battery
       powered, allowing a subscriber with such a telephone to
       carry the telephone in a pocket or purse, over the entire
       area served, and to be contacted by a single telephone
       number. The system became widespread and popular in the
       1980's and 1990's; as, cellular telephones sometimes lose
       their link unpredictably.
       [PJC]
 
    Cellular plants, Cellular cryptogams (Bot.), those
       flowerless plants which have no ducts or fiber in their
       tissue, as mosses, fungi, lichens, and alg[ae].
 
    Cellular theory, or Cell theory (Biol.), a theory,
       according to which the essential element of every tissue,
       either vegetable or animal, is a cell; the whole series of
       cells having been formed from the development of the germ
       cell and by differentiation converted into tissues and
       organs which, both in plants and animals, are to be
       considered as a mass of minute cells communicating with
       each other.
 
    Cellular tissue.
       (a) (Anat.) See conjunctive tissue under Conjunctive.
       (b) (Bot.) Tissue composed entirely of parenchyma, and
           having no woody fiber or ducts.
