3. The difference between an observation and an inference
A verifiable
description or
measurement
An educated
guess based
on observations
or prior knowledge
Could an inference
be incorrect? How
would you test it?

4. Scientists at Work! Observations (looking carefully)
Observed fibers, veins, color, shape, parts of foods, water upon cutting
We’ll make a list of what kind of observations we might make
for Lab 01
Prior knowledge (experience)
Digestive system breaks down food and distributes nutrients to body.
Onion becomes sweet after cooking and makes you cry.
DNA found in nucleus of cells
These unprocessed foods are made out of plant cells
Proteins, carbs, and lipids are in foods
Inferences (educated guess)
Carbs are inside the potato, carbs and protein form the flesh of the red pepper, proteins are in the skin of the carrot, lipids and proteins might be found inside sweet potato, but where?

5. Am I Really What I Eat? continued…
Next we’ll start to prepare ourselves to answer the question, “What does my food look like under the microscope?”
Today we’ll learn how to use a microscope in Lab 01
Next week we’ll look at our food more closely in Lab 02 using this revolutionary tool!

7. The Three Domains of Life
The three domains of life are:
Bacteria
Archaea
Eukarya
Prokaryotes
Eukaryotes

8. The Three Domains of Life
The three domains of life are:
Bacteria
Archaea
Eukarya
Prokaryotes
Eukaryotes
At least four kingdoms of Eukarya
Plantae
Fungi
Animalia
Protists (a group of multiple kingdoms)

10. Biology 160 Are we really what we eat?
So far, what evidence do we have to support or refute this question?

11. Cells!
The cell is the lowest level of structure that can perform all activities required for life.
Cell Theory:
All living organisms are composed of cells.
All cells come from other cells.
We can distinguish two major types of cells:
Prokaryotic
Eukaryotic
Photo source: Wikipedia

12. The
prokaryotic
cell is simple,
small, and
contains no
organelles.
The
eukaryotic
cell is larger
and more
complex
and contains
organelles.

13. Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells:
Two typical kinds
of eukaryotic cells:
- Animal cells
- Plant cells
(DNA)
(DNA)
Cytosol
Cytosol
A prokaryotic cell

14. Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells: What do all cells have in common?
(DNA)
(DNA)
Cytosol
Plasma membrane
Cytosol
Ribosomes
Cytosol
Chromosomes
made of DNA
A prokaryotic cell

15. Plasma Membrane
The plasma membrane separates the living cell from its nonliving surroundings.
- Allows cell
to interact
with environment
- Regulates traffic
into and out of
the cell

16. Cell Surfaces Plant cells and bacterial cells have cell walls,
Which help protect the cells, maintain their shape, and keep the cells from absorbing too much water.

17. Cell Surfaces
Animal cells have an extracellular matrix and cell junctions,
Which helps hold cells together in tissues and protects and supports them (not shown).
Try giving your skin a good pull. If your skin is made out of cells,
how do they all stick together? Extracellular matrix and junctions!

18. The Nucleus: Genetic Control of the Cell
The nucleus is the manager of the cell.
Genes on the DNA in the nucleus store information necessary to produce proteins.
Prokaryotes do not have nuclei.
Their genes (on DNA) are in the nucleoid region

19. How DNA Controls the Cell
DNA controls the cell by transferring its coded information into RNA.
The information in the RNA is used to make proteins.

20. The Endomembrane System: Manufacturing, Distributing, and Storing Cellular Products
Not found in bacterial cells!

21. Smooth ER
The smooth ER lacks the surface ribosomes of rough ER and produces lipids, including steroids.

22. Rough ER
The “roughness” of the rough ER is due to ribosomes that stud the outside of the ER membrane.
The functions of the rough ER include:
Producing two types of membrane proteins
Membrane proteins
Secretory proteins
Producing new membrane

23. After the rough ER synthesizes a molecule, it packages the molecule into transport vesicles. These vesicles head off to the Golgi Apparatus…

24. The Golgi Apparatus The Golgi apparatus
Works in partnership with the ER.
Refines, stores, and distributes the chemical products of cells.

25. Lysosomes
A lysosome is a membrane-enclosed sac that contains digestive enzymes to break down macromolecules.

26. Vacuoles Vacuoles are membranous sacs.
Contractile vacuoles of protists get rid of excess water.
Central vacuoles of plants store nutrients, absorb water, contain some pigments or poisons.

27. A review of the endomembrane system
An amazing system that manufactures, distributes, and stores cellular products!

28. Energy Conversion: Chloroplasts & Mitochondria
Cells require a constant energy supply to do all the work of life.
Not found in bacterial cells!

29. Chloroplasts
Chloroplasts are the sites of photosynthesis, the conversion of light energy to chemical energy.
All little green circles are chloroplasts
Cell walls

30. Mitochondria
Mitochondria are the sites of cellular respiration, which involves the production of ATP from food molecules.

31. The Cytoskeleton: Cell Shape and Movement
The cytoskeleton consists of a network of fibers.
Also, recently found in bacterial cells!

32. Cytoskeleton Can change cell shape to allow movement
Mechanical support to maintain cell shape

33. Cilia and Flagella Cilia and flagella are motile appendages.
Not found on most plant cells!

34. Flagella propel the cell in a whiplike motion.
Cilia move in a coordinated back-and-forth motion.

35. Plastids Membrane-bound organelles found only in plants
Amyloplast
stores starch (stained blue with iodine)
All little green circles are chloroplasts
Chromoplast stores pigments
(little orange circles)
Cell walls
Chloroplast performs photosynthesis

What is your evidence?
What do we need to learn more about?
