Cell Structure and Function
2
All Living things are made up of cells
Cell Theory All Living things are made up of cells Cells are the smallest working units of all living things All cells come from pre- existing cells through cell division
3
Cell A cell is the smallest unit that is capable of performing life functions
4
Examples of Cells Nerve Cell Red Blood Cell Bacteria
5
“Typical” Animal Cell
6
“Typical” Plant Cell
7
Cell Parts
8
Cell Membrane Outer membrane of cell that controls movement in and out of the cell Double layer
9
Cell Wall Most commonly found in plant cells & bacteria
Supports & protects cells
10
Inside the Cell
11
Nucleus Controls center of the cell Contains genetic material - DNA
12
Nuclear Membrane Surrounds nucleus Made of two layers
Openings allow material to enter and leave nucleus
13
Nucleolus Inside nucleus Contains RNA to build proteins
14
Cytoplasm Gel-like material between the nucleus and cell membrane
15
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Moves materials around in cell Smooth type: lacks ribosomes Rough type ribosomes embedded in surface
16
Ribosomes Each cell contains thousands Make proteins
Found on ribosomes & floating throughout the cell
17
Mitochondria Releases energy from nutrients
18
Golgi Bodies Area that stores and packages chemicals
19
Lysosome Transports undigested material to cell membrane for removal
20
Vacuoles Membrane- bound sacs for storage, digestion, and waste removal
21
Chloroplast Usually found in plant cells Contains green chlorophyll
Where photosynthesis takes place
22
Centriole Found in most animal cells
