Cell Structure & Function
2
History of Cell Discovery
3
the basic unit of structure and function in living things
Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things
4
Robert Hooke 1635 – 1703
5
Hooke was one of the first people
to observe cells
6
He published a book, Micrographia, in 1665.
It had ideas about: the life cycle of mosquitoes origin of craters on the moon fossils and drawings of microscopic things.
8
Thin slices of cork from the cork tree. (tiny rooms – cells) He was really looking at dead cells – what was left was the cell wall.
9
Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723)
10
Anton van Leeuwenhoek’s
simple microscope
11
He looked at: drops of lake water scrapings from gums and teeth water in rain gutters He saw tiny moving organisms and called the wretched beasties “animalcules.”
12
Bacteria from the mouth
13
200 years later…
14
German botanist 1838 he suggested that all plants are made of cells
Matthias Schleiden ( ) German botanist 1838 he suggested that all plants are made of cells
15
Theodor Schwann (1810-1882) German zoologist. 1839. suggested that
Theodor Schwann ( ) German zoologist suggested that animals, not just plants are made of cells
16
Rudolf Virchow (1821-1902) German doctor 1855 “all cells come
from cells”
17
The work of these last three men led to…
18
The Cell Theory
19
Robert Hooke 1665 First to see “cells” under a microscope that he created.
20
Anton Van Leewenhoek 1674 One of the first scientist to observe living things in pond water with a single lens microscope
21
Robert Brown- 1831 Discovered the cell nucleus
22
Matthias Schleiden First to discover that plants are made up of cells
23
Theodor Schwann Discovered that all animals are made up of cells
24
Rudolph Virchow Virchow's many discoveries include cells in bone and connective tissue In 1855 he published his now-famous aphorism omnis cellula e cellula ("every cell stems from another cell").
25
The Cell Theory All living things are made up of one or more cells.
Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things. New cells are produced from existing cells.
26
made of one or more cells
The cell theory states: All living things are made of one or more cells
27
The cell theory states:
Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things
28
The cell theory states:
Living cells only come from other living cells
29
The Cell Theory The modern tenets of the Cell Theory include: 1. All known living things are made up of cells. 2. The cell is structural & functional unit of all living things. 3. All cells come from pre-existing cells by division. (Spontaneous Generation does not occur). 4. Cells contains hereditary information which is passed from cell to cell during cell division. 5. All cells are basically the same in chemical composition. 6. All energy flow (metabolism & biochemistry) of life occurs within cells.
30
Cell Theory All living things are made up of one or more cells.
Cells are the basic unit of structure and function -smallest working units of all living things. All cells come from preexisting cells through cell division.
31
Definition of Cell A cell is the smallest unit that is capable of performing life functions.
32
Prokaryotic Eukaryotic
Two Types of Cells Prokaryotic Eukaryotic
33
Prokaryotic Do not have structures surrounded by membranes
Few internal structures One-celled organisms, Bacteria
35
Prokaryotic Cells “Simple” Cells Do not contain a nucleus.
Does contain a cell membrane and cytoplasm. Example: Bacterial cell
37
Eukaryotic Cells “Complex” Cell
Contains a nucleus and several membrane bound organelles in addition to cytoplasm and a cell membrane.
39
Eukaryotic Contain organelles surrounded by membranes
Most living organisms Plant Animal
40
Examples of Cells Amoeba Proteus Plant Stem Bacteria Red Blood Cell
Nerve Cell
41
“Typical” Animal Cell
42
“Typical” Plant Cell
43
Plant vs. Animal Cells
44
Cell Parts Organelles
45
Surrounding the Cell
46
Cell Membrane Outer membrane of cell that controls movement in and out of the cell Double layer
47
Cell Wall Most commonly found in plant cells & bacteria
Supports & protects cells
48
Inside the Cell
49
Nucleus Directs cell activities
Separated from cytoplasm by nuclear membrane Contains genetic material - DNA
50
Nuclear Membrane Surrounds nucleus Made of two layers
Openings allow material to enter and leave nucleus
51
Chromosomes In nucleus Made of DNA
Contain instructions for traits & characteristics
52
Nucleolus Inside nucleus Contains RNA to build proteins
53
Cytoplasm Gel-like mixture Surrounded by cell membrane
Contains hereditary material
54
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Moves materials around in cell Smooth type: lacks ribosomes Rough type (pictured): ribosomes embedded in surface
55
Ribosomes Each cell contains thousands Make proteins
Found on ribosomes & floating throughout the cell
56
Mitochondria Produces energy through chemical reactions – breaking down fats & carbohydrates Controls level of water and other materials in cell Recycles and decomposes proteins, fats, and carbohydrates
57
Golgi Bodies Protein 'packaging plant' Move materials within the cell
Move materials out of the cell
58
Lysosome Digestive 'plant' for proteins, fats, and carbohydrates
Transports undigested material to cell membrane for removal Cell breaks down if lysosome explodes
59
Vacuoles Membrane-bound sacs for storage, digestion, and waste removal
Contains water solution Help plants maintain shape
60
Chloroplast Usually found in plant cells Contains green chlorophyll
Where photosynthesis takes place
61
Cell Organelles
