Three Sections of the Cell All cells take in food, rid waste, reproduce 3 main sections 1) Plasma membrane 2) Nucleus 3) Cytoplasm 2 3 Ribosomes Vacuoles Mitochondria Chloroplasts ER Golgi Body Lysosomes 1
Cytoplasm Jelly-like material inside of the cell Most organelles float within Nucleus Ribosomes Vacuoles Mitochondria Chloroplasts ER Golgi Body Lysosomes
Cytoplasm Jelly-like material inside of the cell Most organelles float within Nucleus Ribosomes Vacuoles Mitochondria Chloroplasts ER Golgi Body Lysosomes The green spheres are chloroplasts located inside a plant cell… you will see this in our lab activity!
Cytoplasm Jelly-like material inside of the cell Most organelles float within Nucleus Ribosomes Vacuoles Mitochondria Chloroplasts ER Golgi Body Lysosomes Job: Help dissolve solutes & move materials around
Plasma Membrane Aka: Cell Membrane Job: Allow materials to enter/exit inside outside Aka: Cell Membrane Job: Allow materials to enter/exit Composition: Lipids & proteins Semi-Permeable: only specific materials may enter and exit through pores & protein channels
Nucleus Job: Controls cell activity Inside: 1) Chromatin long strands of DNA holds info to make proteins 2) Nucleolus: makes ribosomes
Endoplasmic Reticulum Aka: ER Rough ER: Tunnel system that transports ribosomes and proteins Smooth ER: makes fats & breaks down toxins (no ribosomes)
Ribosomes Created by nucleolus Transported by the rough ER Job: make proteins
Ribosomes Created by nucleolus Transported by the rough ER protein Amino acid Amino acid Amino acid Amino acid Amino acid Amino acid Amino acid Created by nucleolus Transported by the rough ER Job: make proteins
Golgi Apparatus Job: Package and transport proteins out of the cell Protein Creation Process Review 1) Nucleolus makes a ribosome 2) Ribosome makes protein & travels through rough ER 3) Golgi Body packages the protein into a vesicle and exports them
Golgi Body in action Vesicle expels the proteins (blue dots) from the cell Golgi body is placing proteins (yellow dots) into protective vesicles
1 minute: Discuss with your neighboor Which organelle builds proteins? Stores DNA? Produces ribosomes? Creates fats and breaks down toxins? Packages and releases proteins from a cell? Allows material to enter/exit a cell? Moves molecules around the inside of a cell? (three acceptable answers) ribosome Nucleus Nucleolus Smooth ER Golgi body Cell membrane Cytoplasm, Rough ER, Vesicles
1 minute: Discuss with your neighboor Place the following steps of protein creation in order from start to finish…. A: Golgi body packages and exports the finished proteins in a vesicle B: Ribosomes travel along the rough ER and create proteins C: Nucleolus makes ribosomes D: Ribosomes exit the nucleus
The Answer is…. Place the following steps of protein creation in order from start to finish…. C: Nucleolus makes ribosomes D: Ribosomes exit the nucleus B: Ribosomes travel along the rough ER and create proteins A: Golgi body packages and exports the finished proteins in a vesicle
Mitochondria “Powerhouse” Job: Create ATP (energy molecule) in a process called cellular respiration
Mitochondria “Powerhouse” Job: Create ATP (energy molecule) in a process called cellular respiration Endosymbiosis theory: once free living organisms that became parts of modern cells Evidence: Own DNA & ribosomes Make proteins
Mitochondria “Powerhouse” Job: Create ATP (energy molecule) in a process called cellular respiration Endosymbiosis theory: were once free living organisms that became parts of modern cells Evidence: Own DNA & ribosomes Make proteins Replicate split into two cells. Here is a mitochondrion about to…
Endosymbiosis Mitochondria ancestor The predator cells continue to divide, splitting apart the mitochondria A large predator cell devours the mitochondria ancestor Mitochondria survive and divide The mitochondria continue to divide and multiply Over time, the mitochondria and larger cell become dependent on one another The predator cell divides, splitting apart the mitochondria
