1 Eukaryotic Cell Structure Plant Cells vs. Animal Cells Cell Structure and Function

2 What are we learning today? Benchmark:Objectives: Relate the success of eukaryotes to the presence of organelles Describe the function the major cell organelles Distinguish between plant and animal cells SC.912.L.14.3 – Compare and contrast the general structures of plant and animal cells. SC.912.L.14.2 – Relate structure to function for the components of plant and animal cells.

3 What is the essential question? How have organelles enabled eukaryotic cells to become successful?

4 What is the cell membrane?  Thin double-layered (bilayer) sheet surrounding the cell  Flexible structure that forms a barrier between the cell and its environment (fluid mosaic model)  Regulates what enters or leaves the cell (Selectively or semi-permeable)  Provides protection and support

5 Question Cell membranes are primarily composed of a double layer of phospholipids. Why are phospholipids particularly well suited to serving as membranes? A. They can be used to metabolize starches B. They create a selectively permeable membrane C. They are only hydrophobic causing them to form a bilayer D. They form a membrane that is impermeable to chemicals

6 What is the nucleus?  Controls most cell processes.  Contains the hereditary information of the cell (DNA in the form of chromatin)  Surrounded by a nuclear membrane  Provides support  Controls movement of substance through the nuclear pores

7 What is the nucleolus?  Small, dense region inside the nucleus  DNA that produces rRNA which later joins with proteins to form the small and large subunits of ribosomes

8 Question Which of the following statements best describes the nucleus of a cell? A. The nucleus has a membrane that allows for active transport of RNA and proteins B. The nucleus exports lysosomes which direct amino acid production within the cell C. The nucleus is responsible for supplying the cell with chemical energy in the form of ATP D. The nucleus contains some of the genetic material in a cell; the majority is contained in the cytoplasm

9 What is the cytoplasm or cytosol?  Fluid made of mostly of water, salts, some proteins, and many organelles  Found outside the nucleus and inside the cell membrane  Site of many of the cell’s chemical reactions (metabolism)

10 What is the cytoskeleton?  Network of proteins  There are two principal proteins  Microfilament  Microtubules  Helps the cell to maintain its shape.  Involved in movement.  Help organelles stay in place

11 What are mitochondria?  Transforms Energy  Use oxygen (O 2 ) to breakdown food (glucose, C 6 H 12 O 6 ) and releases energy in chemical bonds to form ATP, Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) and water (H 2 O).  In humans, all or nearly all of our mitochondria come from the cytoplasm of the ovum.  Has it’s own small circular DNA. Why?  Has it’s own type of ribosomes? Why? DNA Folding of the Membrane: increases surface area, in the mitochondria it’s called cristae

12 What are chloroplasts?  Captures energy from sunlight (solar energy) and converts it into chemical energy (bonds of glucose) in a process called photosynthesis  Chloroplasts contain the green pigment chlorophyll DNA Notice it has a small circular piece of DNA and its own ribosomes. Why?

13 What is the cell wall?  Extra layer found on the outside of the cell membrane.  Gives additional support, shape and strength to the cell.  In plants, the cell wall is made of cellulose.  What about fungi?  Who else has a cell wall?

14 What are ribosomes?  Made from small particles of rRNA and proteins. Where is it made?  Ribosomes are found  throughout the cytoplasm (free floating)  attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.  Proteins are assembled from amino acids on ribosomes by reading the mRNA.  Cells active in protein synthesis are often packed with ribosomes.  They are made of two parts: small subunit and large subunit

15 What is the endoplasmic reticulum?  Rough ER is an extensively folded network of membranes. It is the site of protein synthesis. The proteins go to the golgi body and are sometime secreted from the cell  The portion of the ER involved in the synthesis of proteins is called rough ER because it has ribosomes attached.  Smooth ER is involved in  making more lipids for the cell membrane  it detoxifies poisons from the cells.

16 What is the Golgi apparatus?  Stacked of apposed membranes  Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and other materials from the ER (vesicles are used to transport materials from the ER to the Golgi)  It sends proteins to 1. Make lysosomes (enzymes) 2. To be Secreted outside the cell (secretory proteins). 3. Part of the membrane (membrane proteins) Transport Vesicle 1) Lysosome 2) Secreted 3) Membrane

17 17 What are the mitochondria, nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus all made out of? WHY?

18 Question Which of the following statements correctly explains the function of the Golgi apparatus within a cell? A. It uses oxygen to convert sugar into chemical energy and also controls the metabolism of the cell B. It contains most of the genetic material within the cell and is responsible for gene expression and DNA replication when the cell divides C. It prepares new macromolecules such as lipids by sorting and encasing them before sending them to the correct destination within a cell D. It breaks down molecules that are not needed within the cell, and returns some of the products of digestion to the cell for use in building new cell parts

19 lysosomes  Formed by the Golgi apparatus.  Small organelle filled with enzymes.  Digest macromolecules such as lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids and proteins into small molecules.  Break down organelles that have outlived their usefulness.  Are used by white bloods cells to destroy bacteria Damaged Mitochondria in a vacuole Lysosome Food Vacuole or Bacteria Useful stuff is recycled and used by cell Waste is expelled by exocytosis Food or bacteria are taken in by endocytosis

20 What are vacuoles?  Sac-like structures  Store materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates  Plant cells have a single, large central vacuole filled with liquid.  Animals have many smaller vacuoles

21 Question Which of the following statements correctly explains the role of lysosomes within a cell? A. The lysosome prepares fats and lipids for transport throughout the cell by sorting and encasing them B. The lysosome uses oxygen to convert sugar into chemical energy and also controls the metabolism of the cell C. The lysosome breaks down molecules that are not needed within the cell and returns some of the products of digestion to the cell for later use D. The lysosome isolates water and other molecular compounds and stores them so they can be used later by the cell, or expels them as waste products

22 Flagella and Cilia Used for movement Usually one flagellum Usually many cilia They are made of microtubules Flagellum and cilium are plural forms of the word.

23 Question Which of the following structures would be present in a plant cell, but not in an animal cell? A. Nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts B. Chloroplasts, cell wall, central vacuole C. Cell wall, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus D. Central vacuole, Golgi apparatus, nucleus

24 Question Which of the following is a structure that is present in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? A. Golgi complex B. Plasma membrane C. Nucleus D. Vacuole

25 Centrosome and Centrioles 25 Centrosomes are in plants and animals. They are used in cell division. Centrioles are found only in animals.

26 When they analyzed the results of the experiment, they found that simple organic molecules were formed. What kind of molecules did they find? A.Lipids B. Proteins C.Amino Acids D. Nucleic Acids

27 What are the two types of eukaryotes? Plant Cell Animal Cell

28 How are plant and animal cells similar?

29 How are plant and animal cells different? Plant Cell Animal Cell  Rectangular shape  Have cell walls Have cell walls  Have chloroplasts for photosynthesis Have chloroplasts for photosynthesis  Have only one large central vacuole  Use both chloroplasts and mitochondria to convert energy  No lysosomes  No centrioles  Circular shape  No cell walls  No chloroplasts.  Have many small vacuoles  Use only mitochondria to convert energy  Have lysosomes Have lysosomes  Have Centrioles
