BIOL Anatomy & Physiology 1 Chapter 3 Cells Edited by Brenda Holmes MSN/Ed, RN Associate Professor 1 South Arkansas Community College

3.1: Introduction 2 The basic organizational structure of the human body is the cell. There are trillion cells in the human body. Differentiation is when cells specialize. As a result of differentiation, cells vary in size and shape due to their unique function.

3.2: A Composite Cell 3 Also called a ‘typical’ cell Major parts include: Nucleus Cytoplasm Cell membrane Microtubules Flagellum Nuclear envelope Basal body Chromatin Ribosomes Cell membrane Mitochondrion Cilia Microtubules Microtubule Centrioles Microvilli Lysosomes Nucleolus Nucleus Phospholipid bilayer Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum Rough Endoplasmic reticulum Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

Cell Membrane (aka Plasma Membrane) 4 Outer limit of the cell Controls what moves in and out of the cell Selectively permeable Phospholipid bilayer Water-soluble “heads” form surfaces (hydrophilic) Water-insoluble “tails” form interior (hydrophobic) Permeable to lipid-soluble substances Cholesterol stabilizes the membrane Proteins: Receptors Pores, channels and carriers Enzymes CAMS Self-markers

3.4: The Cell Cycle 35 Series of changes a cell undergoes from the time it forms until the time it divide Stages: Interphase Mitosis Cytokinesis Apoptosis G 2 phase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Restriction checkpoint Remain specialized Proceed to division S phase: genetic material replicates G 1 phase cell growth Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.

Interphase 36 Very active period Cell grows Cell maintains routine functions Cell replicates genetic material to prepare for nuclear division Cell synthesizes new organelles to prepare for cytoplasmic division Phases: G phases – cell grows and synthesizes structures other than DNA S phase – cell replicates DNA

Mitosis 37 Produces two daughter cells from an original somatic cell Nucleus divides – karyokinesis Cytoplasm divides – cytokinesis Phases of nuclear division: Prophase – chromosomes form; nuclear envelope disappears Metaphase – chromosomes align midway between centrioles Anaphase – chromosomes separate and move to centrioles Telophase – chromatin forms; nuclear envelope forms

Mitosis 38 Telophase and Cytokinesis Nuclear envelopes begin to reassemble around two daughter nuclei. Chromosomes decondense. Spindle disappears. Division of the cytoplasm into two cells. Anaphase Sister chromatids separate to opposite poles of cell. Events begin which lead to cytokinesis. Metaphase Chromosomes align along equator, or metaphase plate of cell. Prophase Chromosomes condense and become visible. Nuclear envelope and nucleolus disperse. Spindle apparatus forms. Late Interphase Cell has passed the restriction checkpoint and completed DNA replication, as well as replication of centrioles and mitochondria, and synthesis of extra membrane. Early Interphase of daughter cells— a time of normal cell growth and function.

3.5: Control of Cell Division 42 Cell division capacities vary greatly among cell types Skin and blood cells divide often and continually Neuron cells divide a specific number of times then cease Chromosome tips (telomeres) that shorten with each mitosis provide a mitotic clock Cells divide to provide a more favorable surface area to volume relationship Growth factors and hormones stimulate cell division Hormones stimulate mitosis of smooth muscle cells in uterus Epidermal growth factor stimulates growth of new skin Tumors are the consequence of a loss of cell cycle control Contact (density dependent) inhibition

Tumors 43 Two types of tumors: Benign – usually remains localized Malignant – invasive and can metastasize; cancerous Two major types of genes cause cancer: Oncogenes – activate other genes that increase cell division Tumor suppressor genes – normally regulate mitosis; if inactivated they are unable to regulate mitosis Cells are now known as “immortal” Normal cells (with hairlike cilia) Cancer cells Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
