1 WHY DO WE HAVE OVER 35 TRILLION CELLS?

2 What is a cell?  Cell: Smallest unit of living matter that can carry out all processes required for life

3 Cells have 2 main categories  Prokaryotic Cells  NO nucleus  NO membrane-bound organelles  LOOSE DNA in the cytoplasm  Prokaryotes are single-celled  Eukaryotic Cells  Nucleus  Membrane-bound organelles  DNA found in the nucleus  Eukaryotes can be single or multi-cellular

4 2 Main types of Eukaryotic Cells  Animal Cells  Found in all animals  Plant Cells  Found in all plants

5 Organelles  Organelle = little organ  Structures specialized to perform distinct processes within a cell
