2. THE CELL

3. INTRO TO CELLS CELLS ARE BASIC UNITS OF ORGANISMS CELLS CAN ONLY BE OBSERVED UNDER A MICROSCOPE BASIC TYPES OF CELLS ANIMAL PLANTBACTERIAL

4. Microscopes and Cells 1600’s. –Anton van Leeuwenhoek first described living cells as seen through a simple microscope.

5. ANTOINE VAN LEEUWENHOEK Using his handcrafted microscopes he was the first to observe and describe single celled organisms, which he originally referred to as animalcules, and which we now refer to as microorganisms. He was also the first to record microscopic observations of muscle fibers, bacteria, spermatozoa and blood flow in capillaries (small blood vessels). musclebacteriaspermatozoabloodcapillariesblood vessels

8. Microscopes and Cells –Robert Hooke – 1600’s used the first compound microscope to view thinly sliced cork cells. Compound scopes use a series of lenses to magnify in steps. first to use the term “cell”.

10. Microscopes and Cells 1830’s. –Mathias Schleiden identified the first plant cells and concluded that all plants made of cells. - Thomas Schwann made the same conclusion about animal cells.

12. Twenty years later in 1855 Rudolf Virchow proposed an important extension of cell theory that "All living cells arise from pre-existing cells". ("Omnis cellula e celula") This statement has become what is known as the "Biogenic law". This idea flew in the face of current doctrine. It implied that there was no spontaneous creation of cells from non-living matter.

13. CELL THEORY PROPOSED BY SCHLEIDEN, SCHWANN AND VIRCHOW ALL LIVING THINGS ARE COMPOSED OF CELLS CELLS ARE THE BASIC UNIT OF STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION IN LIVING THINGS ALL CELLS ARE PRODUCED FROM OTHER CELLS

14. NUMBER OF CELLS ORGANISMS MAY BE: –UNICELLULAR COMPOSED OF ONE CELL ex. bacteria –MULTICELLULAR –COMPOSED OF MANY CELLS THAT MAY ORGANIZE ex. humans

15. PROKARYOTEEUKARYOTE NO TRUE NUCLEUS NO MEMBRANE- BOUND ORGANELLES CIRCULAR DNA EX. BACTERIA PROBABLY FIRST CELL TYPE ON EARTH NUCLEUS MEMBRANE – BOUND ORGANELLES LINEAR DNA ALL OTHER CELLS EX. YEAST (UNICELLULAR; PLANTS & ANIMALS MULTI

16. Cells Complete the web with four characteristics of cells. All organisms are made of cells. cells are like tiny building blocks. Cells do the jobs that keep organisms alive. Cells are the smallest part of a living thing.

17. CELL SIMILARITIES CELLS COME IN ALL SHAPES AND SIZES AND PERFORM A VARIETY OF FUNCTIONS, BUT THEY ALL HAVE THE FOLLOWING THINGS IN COMMON CELL MEMBRANE DNA CYTOPLASM AND ORGANELLES

21. CELL MEMBRANE

22. Protective layer around cell Regulates interactions between cell and it’s environment Controls what enters and exits

23. CYTOPLASM

24. Gelatin-like substance; constantly flowing Many important chemical reactions occur in it and most of life’s processes occur in it Contains a framework called cytoskeleton; helps maintain shape

25. CELL WALL

26. CELLS OF PLANTS, ALGAE, FUNGUS, AND SOME BACTERIA HAVE HARD CELL WALL PROVIDES STRENGTH AND SUPPORT TO CELL MEMBRANE CELLS OF MUSHROOMS, MOLD AND YEAST HAVE CELL WALL MADE OF CHEMICAL SIMILAR TO COVERING OF INSECTS

27. NUCLEUS

28. LARGEST AND MOST VISIBLE ORGANELLE IN EUKARYOTES NUCLEUS MEANS KERNEL OR NUT COVERED BY MEMBRANE CONTROL CENTER OF CELL(DIRECTS ALL CELL ACTIVITIES) STORES DNA (LONG THREADLIKE MATERIAL THAT CONTAINS CODE FOR CELL ACTIVITIES) HAS INFO ON HOW TO MAKE PROTEINS

29. RIBOSOMES

30. MAKES THE PROTEINS WHICH ARE MADE UP OF AMINO ACIDS USED BY THE BODY FOR GROWTH AND REPLACEMENT AND REPAIR OF BODY CELLS NOT MEMBRANE BOUND SOME FLOAT FREELY; OTHERS ARE ATTACHED TO THE ER

31. ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM

32. ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM (ER) MAKES LIPIDS AND OTHER MATERIALS FOR USE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF CELL BREAKS DOWN DRUGS AND OTHER CHEMICALS THAT COULD DAMAGE A CELL INTERNAL DELIVERY SYSTEM OF CELL; MOVES SUBSTANCES FROM ONE PART OF CELL TO ANOTHER SMOOTH ER (NO ATTACHED RIBOSOMES); ROUGH ER (RIBOSOMES ATTACHED)

34. MITOCHONDRIA ENERGY FOR THE CELL (ATP) IS PRODUCED AT THE MITOCHONDRIA (BREAKS DOWN FOOD INTO CO2 AND WATER) WE BREATHE AIR TO MAKE SURE OUR MITOCHONDRIA HAVE OXYGEN THEY NEED TO MAKE ATP HIGHLY ACTIVE CELLS LIKE THE HEART AND LIVER HAVE THOUSANDS OTHERS HAVE ONLY A FEW

36. CHLOROPLASTS CONTAINS CHLOROPHYLL ( ONLY IN PLANTS AND BACTERIA) MAKES FOOD IN PLANTS; CONVERTS SUNLIGHT, CARBON DIOXIDE AND WATER INTO SUGAR

38. GOLGI BODIES STACKED, FLATTENED MEMBRANES SORT PROTEINS, PACKAGE THEM, AND DELIVER THEM AROUND THE CELL

40. VACUOLES STORE WATER AND OTHER LIQUIDS SOME PLANTS WILT WHEN THEIR CELL VACUOLES LOSE WATER VACUOLES ARE USUALLY THE LARGEST ORGANELLE IN A PLANT CELL

42. LYSOSOMES CONTAIN ENZYMES DESTROY WORN OUT OR DAMAGED ORGANELLES GET RID OF WASTE MATERIALS PROTECT CELL FROM FOREIGN INVADERS
