Ch 7.2 Cell Structure
2
How is a cell organized? -All Eukaryotic (Animal/Plant) cells have 3 main parts: - Nucleus - Cytoplasm - Cell Membrane
3
Organelles - Literally means “tiny organs” - Are membrane-bound compartments - Have specialized jobs in a cell - Can be compared to the machines in a factory
4
Nucleus -Is the control center of a cell -Contains a cell’s DNA -DNA in the form of chromatin -DNA bound to proteins -Sends coded instructions for making proteins and other molecules
5
Nuclear Envelope - A two-layer membrane - Covers and protects the contents of the nucleus
6
Nuclear Pores - Small holes in the nuclear membrane - Allow molecules in and out of the nucleus
7
Nucleolus - Where ribosomes are assembled
8
Building Proteins
9
Ribosomes - Build proteins - Use instructions that come from DNA
10
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) -Where lipids and proteins are assembled and transported -Rough ER -Covered in ribosomes = “rough” -Synthesize proteins -Smooth ER -No ribosomes = “smooth” -Synthesize lipids -Detoxify drugs
11
Golgi Apparatus -Receives proteins from ER -Give proteins an “address tag” -Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and other materials -Sends proteins to final destination
13
Storing and Cleaning Up Vacuoles and Vesicles -Vacuoles store water, salts, proteins, and carbs -Vesicles store and move materials between organelles Lysosomes -Filled with enzymes -Breakdown lipids, carbs, and proteins, and other organelles -Remove “junk” from cell
14
Providing Support and Structure Cytoskeleton -Maintains cell shape -Helps with cell movement -Consists of Microfilaments and Microtubules
15
How do cells get their energy?
17
Chloroplasts - Perform photosynthesis -Capture energy from sunlight and convert it into food (sugars)
18
Mitochondria - Perform cellular respiration -Convert the chemical energy in food into cellular energy (ATP)
19
Cell Wall -Strong, supportive layer that surrounds plant cells -Made of cellulose -Also found in prokaryotes, but theirs is not made of cellulose -Allow water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and most nutrients to pass through
20
Cell Membrane -Regulates what enters and leaves the cell -Protects and supports the cell -Is made of a double layer of lipids called a lipid bilayer
21
Lipids in the Membrane - Have regions that are hydrophilic -“love” water -Have regions that are hydrophobic -“fear” water -Orient themselves so the hydrophilic parts face the water and the hydrophobic parts face away from it -Make the membrane selectively permeable -Some things can cross it, but others can’t
22
Fluid Mosaic Model -Proteins, carbohydrates and other molecules are embedded in the lipid bilayer -This makes the membrane look like a mosaic -Since molecules can float and move in the membrane, it acts like a fluid
23
Differences Between Plant and Animal Cells Plant - Have cell walls - Have chloroplasts Animal -No cell walls -No chloroplasts
