1 Cell Structure & Function http://koning.ecsu.ctstateu.edu/cell/cell.html

2 Definition of Cell A cell is the smallest unit of structure in all living things.

3 Cell Theory All living things are made of cells. All cells come from preexisting cells through cell division.

4 Examples of Cells Amoeba Proteus Plant Stem Red Blood Cell Nerve Cell Bacteria

5 Cell Organization Cell  Tissue  Organ (heart) 

6 Cell Organization (continued)  Organ system  Organism (circulatory system) (Human)

7 Two Types of Cells Prokaryotic Eukaryotic

8 Prokaryotic Cells No membrane- bound organelles/structur es Do not have a true nucleus One-celled organisms, Bacteria http://library.thinkquest.org/C004535/prokaryotic_cells.html

9 Eukaryotic Cells Contain organelles surrounded by membranes Has a nucleus Most living organisms PlantAnimal http://library.thinkquest.org/C004535/eukaryotic_cells.html

10 Cell Parts AKA Organelles

11 Inside the Cell

12 Nucleus Directs cell activities Contains genetic material – Chromosomes/DNA

13 Nucleolus Inside nucleus Contains RNA to build proteins http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

14 Cytoplasm Gel-like mixture in the cell

15 Mitochondria Produces energy through chemical reactions – breaking down fats & carbs “Powerhouse” of the cell http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

16 Surrounding the Cell: Cell Membrane Allows movement in and out of the cell http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

17 Cell Membrane Cont. Passive Transport: –Requires NO energy –Diffusion: substance move through the membrane –Osmosis: movement of water from HIGH  LOW concentration Active Transport: –Requires energy –Moves from LOW  HIGH concentration (that’s why it takes energy!)

18 Endoplasmic Reticulum Moves materials around in cell http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

19 Ribosomes Make proteins http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

20 Vacuoles Membrane-bound sacs for storage, digestion, and waste removal http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

21 Surrounding the Cell: Cell Wall Found in plant cells/bacteria Shapes, supports & protects cells http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

22 Chloroplast Found only in plant cells *Green Chlorophyll= Makes plant food/ photosynthesis http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

23 Golgi Bodies Moves Protein within/out of the cell http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html

24 Lysosome Found mainly in animal cells Digestive functions for proteins, fats, and carbohydrates http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
