The Cell Heba Al-Tamimi
Discovery of Cells The first scientist to look at cells under a microscope was the English scientist Robert Hooke
Common feature in all cell: Plasma membrane :the border of cell and function to regulate passage of materials into and out of cell Nucleus :region contain genetic material Cytoplasm :the components enclosed by the plasma membrane
Two Cell types Prokaryotic Cells do not have an organized nucleus surrounded by an envelope and are relatively small (1-10 um) compose two domains Eubacteria and Archaebacteria Eukaryotic Cells are much larger and have an organized nucleus enclosed by a nuclear envelope Eukarya forms 4 kingdoms :the animals ,plants ,protists and fungi
Common ancestor Archaea Eubacteria Eukaryota Protista Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Plant Kingdom Animal
Eubacteria (Prokaryotes)

bacteria in yoghurt Exe 4-2 Yogurt is a nutrient-rich culture of lactic acid bacteria such as lactobacillus These bacteria live on lactose (milk sugar) and converts milk to yogurt To observe bacteria in yogurt the following procedure is employed Place a very small amount of yogurt on slides by using tooth pick , spread yogurt by using other slide (smear) Add one drop of methylene blue to the yogurt and place the cover slip Observed under microscope
Cyanobacteria Photosynthetic prokaryotes Live in aquatic environment Exe 4-3 Photosynthetic prokaryotes Live in aquatic environment E.x : Anabaena Is filamentous organism and each filament is composed of long chains of greenish cells
Eukaryotic cells The nucleus is separated from the rest of the protoplasm by a double membrane (nuclear envelope)
