1. Ch. 7 Notes: Cell Biology

2. Sizes of living things

3. Early microscopists 1665 Robert Hooke (English) coined the term "cell" while looking at cork. 1675 Anton van Leeuwenhoek (Dutch) Lens maker who first reported observations of living cells which he called "animicules". 1831 Robert Brown (English) discovered the nucleus of the cell.

4. Three German scientists propose “The Cell Theory” in the 1800s Matthias Schleiden - Botantist reported that all plants were composed of cells. Theodor Schwann - Zoologist reported that all animals were composed of cells. Rudolf Virchow – Physician reported that all cells came from pre-existing cells

5. Three parts of the cell theory 1. All living things are composed of cells. 2. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function of all living things. 3. New cells are produced from living cells.

6. Sizes Cells vary in size, but most are microscopic Can be unicellular or multicellular- Unicellular- one-celled organism. Very versatile Multicellular- many celled organism. These are more specialized with a division of labor.

7. Shape and function The shape and structure of a cell is closely related to the function of the cell Most cells can generally- Secure food for energy Remove waste Obtain oxygen Produce chemicals Regulate water balance Reproduce other cells

8. There are only two types of cells Prokaryote Eukaryote

9. Prokaryote vs. Eukaryote Prokaryotes contain no membrane bound structures. Circular chromosomes, cell walls made of peptidoglycen, smaller ribosomes, and fixed flagella Eukaryotes contain membrane bound organelles. Linear chromosomes, cell walls made of cellulose of chitin, and flexible microtubule flagella or cillia.

10. Prokaryotic Cell

11. Prokaryote cell function and parts Cell wall-Protective out barrier Capsule- attachment to surfaces and protcetion Cytoplasm-water and nutrients that support the structures inside the cell Flagellum- for swimming and movement Ribosome- for protein production Nucleoid- area where the DNA is located Mesosome

12. Only BACTERIA are considered prokaryotes.

13. Eukaryote Cell The eukaryotic cell contains Boundaries- for protection Organelles- for assembly, transportation, and storage of cellular products, as well as cellular support, locomotion and reproduction.

14. Organelle- Structures that perform a specific function in certain cells. Some organelles have membranes, but eukaryotic cells are the only ones with organelles with membranes. List of organelles: Nucleus, mitochondria, cell membrane, lysosomes, chloroplast, ribosomes, golgi apparatus, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, cytoplasm, vacuole, chloroplasts, centrioles, cell wall, nucleolus.

15. Differences in Eukaryote Cell Plant Cell wall, plastids, central water vacuole Animal Centrioles, lysosomes

16. Boundaries of a Eukaryote Plasma Membrane (aka cell membrane)- Surrounds the cell and controls what enters and leaves it. Made of a phosopholipid bilayer with proteins embedded in it. This fluid mosaic structure allows for the membrane to be flexible The cell is covered by an extracellular matrix made up of glycocalyx.

18. Cell wall- Aids in the protection and support of the cells Made in a series of steps Middle lamella- a partition containing pectin Primary wall- cellulose added to the middle lamella. Flexible and can stretch with the growing cell Secondary wall- cellulose and lignin added to the primary wall. Inflexible Fungus cell walls are made of chitin

20. The control-Cell nucleus Surrounded by a porous double bilipid membrane Controls the cells activities by regulating the building of proteins, which in turn regulates the cell chemical processes and contains: DNA- master instructions for building proteins. Combines with structural proteins to form chromatin, which is tightly coiled during cell division in the form of chromosomes RNA- copy of the master instructions to be used in the actual building of a protein in the cytoplasm Nucleolus- produces ribosomes (sites of protein synthesis)

21. Assembly, Transport, and Storage Protoplasm Cytoplasm- jelly-like substance inside the cell membrane by outside the nucleus. Various organelles are suspended in it Nucleoplasm- jelly-like substance inside the nucleus

23. Endoplasmic Reticulum A network of membranes of membranes that form a series of channels throughout the cytoplasm. The cavity is used for storage, separation, and transport

24. Endoplasmic Reticulum Two Types Rough and Smooth Rough ER- contains ribosomes attached to the membranes. Important in the synthesis of proteins for export from the cell and for use in the cell membrane Smooth ER- does not contain ribosomes. Used for synthesizing lipids.

26. Ribosomes Structures made up of protein and RNA where proteins are assembled Ribosomes are located in two areas within a cell Free- ribosomes that float in the cytoplasm and all proteins made are directly used by the cell. Attached- bound to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

27. Golgi Apparatus Stacks of membrane used to modify, store, and package proteins and lipids Proteins made in the endoplasmic reticulum are transported and repackaged to be sent to another part of the cell or a new cell.

29. Vacuoles A membranous saclike structure used for storage and excess water. In the plant cell it comprises a major portion of the cell, but in animal cells, they are much smaller.

30. Lysosomes Membrane bound organelles formed by the golgi apparatus and are used for breaking down large molecules within the cell by using digestive enzymes.

31. Energy Transformers Mitochondria and plastids are used by cells to transform molecules into usable energy Mitochondria- double membrane. Used by the cell to convert food energy into ATP Plastids- double membrane. Found in plants and are used in storage and food production Chromoplast- plastids that contain pigment Leucoplast- plastids that store starch Cholorplast- convert solar energy into food energy

32. Energy Transformers Mitochondria Chloroplast

33. Structural support and locomotion Cytoplasm support- Microtubules- hollow-tube like. Make flagella, cytoskeleton, centrioles, cilia, spindle fibers Microfilaments- solid rods. Make cytoskeleton and contract muscles. Locomotion- Cilia-hair-like projections Flagella- tail-like projection used by whipping back and forth Pili- hair-like projections

35. Centrioles, Centrosomes Centrioles- used during cellular division by the animal cell Centrosome- used during cellular division by both animal and plant cell. Plant cells however have no centrioles

36. Organelle Specialized structure that performs a specific function in certain cells. Found in eukaryotes ONLY List of organelles: Nucleus, mitochondria, cell membrane, lysosomes, chloroplast, ribosomes*, golgi apparatus, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, cytoplasm, vacuole

37. Nucleus A membrane-covered organelle that contains a cell’s genetic information (genes). Not all living cells have nuclei.

38. Picture of a prokaryote

39. Eukaryotes do have membranes Eukaryotes have a nucleus. Their genetic material is enclosed in a membrane-bound organelle. Eukaryotes have membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus. If a cell has a nucleus, it is a eukayote;

40. Prokaryotes and eukaryotes Prokaryote: All bacteria are prokaryotes. They have no nuclei. Eukaryotes: Animals, plants, protists (like amoeba and algae), and fungi (yeast, mold, mushrooms, etc.) are all eukaryotes. They all have membrane-bound organelles.

41. Example of an animal cell: Eukaryotic cells Small vacuoles No cell walls Centrioles No photosynthetic organelles

42. Example of an animal cell

43. Example of a plant cell: Eukaryotic cells Large vacuoles Have cell walls No Centrioles Photosynthetic organelle = chloroplast

44. Plant cell anatomy

45. Your Turn Fill in the blanks for your copy of the plant and animal cells and then make Make flashcards of the organelles

46. Eukaryotes: Have a nucleus. Animals, plants, protists (like amoeba and algae), and fungi (yeast, mold, mushrooms, etc.) are all eukaryotes. They all have membrane-bound organelles.

47. Two types: Plant and animal cell Why is there a distinguished difference?

48. Example of an animal cell: Eukaryotic cells Small vacuoles No cell walls Centrioles No chloroplast

49. Example of a plant cell: Eukaryotic cells Large vacuoles Have cell walls No Centrioles Chloroplast

50. Prokaryote cells: nucleiod region, bacteria, no nucleus Plant cells contain: cell wall, chloroplast, producers, photosynthesis, large central vacuole, Living, ribosomes, cytoplasm, DNA, RNA, proteins Cell wall Animal cells: cell membrane, heterotrophs (consumers), motile, Flagella, cilia, pilli Golgi apparatus, r & s endoplasmic reticulum, lysosome, mitochondria, nucleolus, nucleus,
