1 3.1 Cell Theory KEY CONCEPT Cells are the Basic unit of life.

2 3.1 Cell Theory The cell theory grew out of the work of many scientists and improvements in the microscope.

3 3.1 Cell Theory

4

5 The Cell theory has three principles. 1. All organisms are made of cells.

6 3.1 Cell Theory The Cell theory has three principles. 1. All organisms are made of cells. 2. All existing cells are produced by other living cells.

7 3.1 Cell Theory The Cell theory has three principles. 1. All organisms are made of cells. 2. All existing cells are produced by other living cells. 3. The cell is the most basic unit of life.

8 3.1 Cell Theory All cells share certain characteristics.

9 3.1 Cell Theory All cells share certain characteristics. 1. Cells tend to be microscopic. Bacterium (colored SEM; magnification 8800x)

10 3.1 Cell Theory All cells share certain characteristics. 1. Cells tend to be microscopic. 2. All cells are enclosed by a membrane. Bacterium (colored SEM; magnification 8800x) cell membrane

11 3.1 Cell Theory All cells share certain characteristics. 1. Cells tend to be microscopic. 2. All cells are enclosed by a membrane. 3. All cells are filled with cytoplasm. Bacterium (colored SEM; magnification 8800x) cell membrane cytoplasm

12 3.1 Cell Theory There are two cell types: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells.

13 3.1 Cell Theory

14 Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus. nucleus cell membrane

15 3.1 Cell Theory Eu = true Karyote = nucleus Eukaryotic cells also have membrane-bound organelles. Ex: All animals & plants Some single celled organisms nucleus cell membrane organelles

16 3.1 Cell Theory Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. nucleus cell membrane organelles

17 3.1 Cell Theory Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound organelles. Ex: bacteria nucleus cell membrane organelles cytoplasm

18 3.1 Cell Theory Differences between cells Size – limited by ratio between their outer surface area & their volume Shape – diversity of form reflects a diversity of function Internal Organization – organelles – perform specific functions for the cell

19 3.1 Cell Theory 3.3 The cell membrane is a barrier that separates a cell from the external environment. 3.3 Cell Membrane

20 3.1 Cell Theory The cell membrane has two major functions. – –forms a boundary between inside and outside of the cell – –controls passage of materials cell membrane 3.3 Cell Membrane

21 3.1 Cell Theory Homeostasis Cell membrane maintains a stable internal environment inside the cell – by allowing some molecules to pass through and not others Selectively Permeable 3.3 Cell membrane

22 3.1 Cell Theory The cell membrane is selectively permeable. Some molecules can cross the membrane while others cannot. 3.3 Cell Membrane

23 3.1 Cell Theory The cell membrane is selectively permeable. Some molecules can cross the membrane while others cannot. 3.3 Cell Membrane

24 3.1 Cell Theory Cell membranes are composed of two phospholipid layers. polar head (hydrophilic – likes water) 2 nonpolar tails (hydrophobic – repelled by water) 3.3 Cell Membrane

25 3.1 Cell Theory Cell Membrane – Fluid Mosaic Model – constant motion the phospholipids move within the membrane Proteins in the membrane also move like boats Peripheral proteins – found on the inside & outside of the cell Integral proteins – extend through membrane 3.3 Cell Membrane

26 3.1 Cell Theory Chemical signals are transmitted across the cell membrane. Receptors bind with ligands and change shape. There are two types of receptors. 3.3 Cell Membrane

27 3.1 Cell Theory Chemical signals are transmitted across the cell membrane. Receptors bind with ligands and change shape. There are two types of receptors. – –intracellular receptor – inside the cell 3.3 Cell Membrane

28 3.1 Cell Theory Chemical signals are transmitted across the cell membrane. Receptors bind with ligands and change shape. There are two types of receptors. – –intracellular receptor – –membrane receptor- integrated within membrane 3.3 Cell Membrane

29 3.1 Cell Theory 3.3 The Cell Membrane

31 3.1 Cell Theory 3.2 Eukaryotic cells share many similarities. 3.2 Cell Organelles

32 3.1 Cell Theory Cells have an internal structure - cytoskeleton 3.2 Cell Organelles

33 3.1 Cell Theory Cells have an internal structure. The cytoskeleton has many functions. 3.2 Cell Organelle

34 3.1 Cell Theory Cells have an internal structure. The cytoskeleton has many functions. – –supports and shapes cell 3.2 Cell Organelles

35 3.1 Cell Theory Cells have an internal structure. The cytoskeleton has many functions. – –supports and shapes cell – –helps position and transport organelles 3.2 Cell Organelles

36 3.1 Cell Theory Cells have an internal structure. The cytoskeleton has many functions. – –supports and shapes cell – –helps position and transport organelles – –provides strength 3.2 Cell Organelles

37 3.1 Cell Theory Cells have an internal structure. The cytoskeleton has many functions. – –supports and shapes cell – –helps position and transport organelles – –provides strength – –assists in cell division 3.2 Cell Organelles

38 3.1 Cell Theory Centrioles are tubes found in the centrosomes (cytoskeleton) 3.2 Cell Organelles

39 3.1 Cell Theory Centrioles are tubes found in the centrosomes. – –Centrioles help divide DNA. 3.2 Cell Organelles

40 3.1 Cell Theory Centrioles are tubes found in the centrosomes. – –Centrioles help divide DNA. – –Centrioles form cilia and flagella. Cilia & flagella assist in movement and feeding – –Cilia – short, numerous hair-like extensions – –Flagella – longer, move with a whip-like motion – cell usually only has 1 or 2 3.2 Cell Organelles

41 3.1 Cell Theory The nucleus stores genetic information. 3.2 Cell Organelles

42 3.1 Cell Theory Nuclear matrix – nucleus skeleton Nuclear envelope – double membrane Chromatin – strands of DNA Chromosomes – formed from chromatin during cell division Nuclear pores – small holes in the nuclear envelope Nucleolus – site where ribosomes are formed 3.2

43 3.1 Cell Theory 3.2 The Nucleus

44 3.1 Cell Theory Endoplasmic reticulum –Series of highly folded membranes 3.2 Cell Organelles

45 3.1 Cell Theory There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum. 3.2 Cell Organelles

46 3.1 Cell Theory There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum. 1. Rough endoplasmic reticulum covered in ribosomes makes proteins for use outside of the cell 3.2 Cell Organelles

47 3.1 Cell Theory There are two types of endoplasmic reticulum. 1. Rough endoplasmic reticulum 2. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum makes and stores steroids (lipids) 3.2 Cell Organelles

48 3.1 Cell Theory Ribosomes link amino acids to form proteins. Free floating ribosomes make proteins for use inside of the cell 3.2 Cell Organelles

49 3.1 Cell Theory Vesicles are membrane-bound sacs that hold materials. Found in animal cells 3.2 cell Organelles

50 3.1 Cell Theory Vacuoles are fluid-filled sacs that hold materials. Found in plant cells 3.2 Cell Organelles

51 3.1 Cell Theory Mitochondria supply energy to the cell 3.2 Cell Organelles

52 3.1 Cell Theory Mitochondria Cell respiration - transfer Energy (E) from organic compounds (food) into ATP (cellular E) - Cristae – folded inner membrane - Increases the surface area - Increases E production 3.2 Cell Organelles

53 3.1 Cell Theory 3.2 Mitochondria

54 3.1 Cell Theory Golgi Apparatus – processes, packages, & secretes substances 3.2 Cell Organelles

55 3.1 Cell Theory Lysosomes contain enzymes to digest unwanted or broken material. 3.2 Cell Organelles

56 3.1 Cell Theory Plant cells have cell walls and chloroplasts. A cell wall provides rigid support. 3.2 Cell Organelles

57 3.1 Cell Theory 3.2 Cell Organelles

58 3.1 Cell Theory Plant cells have cell walls and chloroplasts. A cell wall provides rigid support. Chloroplasts convert solar energy to chemical energy (photosynthesis) Thylakoids – stacks of sacs filled with chlorophyll Increase surface area - increase photosynthesis 3.2 Cell Organelles
