AP Biology Cells Doing Life’s Work AIM: What are cells, why are they important and how do thy do what they do?
3
Regents Biology CELLS: ARE THEY IMPORTANT!?
4
Regents Biology What jobs do cells have to do for an organism to live… “breathe” gas exchange: O 2 in vs. CO 2 out eat take in & digest food make energy ATP build molecules (Synthesis) proteins, carbohydrates, fats, nucleic acids remove wastes (Excretion) control internal conditions ( Homeostasis) respond to external environment build more cells (Reproduction) growth, repair, reproduction & development The Work of Life ATP
5
Regents Biology Cell Theory 1. All organisms are made up of one or more cells. 2. The cell is the basic unit of structure and function of all living things. 3. All cells arise from previously existing cells.
6
Regents Biology Organelles: (means “little organs”) Organelles do the work of cells each structure has a job to do keeps the cell alive; keeps you alive Model Animal Cell They’re like mini-organs!
7
Regents Biology HISTORY OF THE CELL: The study of cells is called cytology. Robert Hooke was the first scientist to use the word cell after observing cork cells in 1665! Robert Brown discovered the nucleus in 1833. Theodor Schwann discovered that animals were made of cells in 1838.
8
Regents Biology What instrument led to the development of the cell theory? *Microscope*
9
Regents Biology Regents Question It was once thought that decaying meat turned into maggots (fly larvae). Careful experimentation by scientists demonstrated that maggots actually come from fly eggs and not meat. These experiments illustrate that new individuals result only from (1) reproduction and development (2) genetic engineering (3) nutrition and replication (4) metabolic homeostasis
10
Regents Biology Regents Answer (1) reproduction and development
11
Regents Biology Regents Question In a cell, all organelles work together to carry out 1)diffusion 2)active transport 3)information storage 4)metabolic processes Hint: Which one is necessary for life???
12
Regents Biology Regents Question (4) metabolic processes
13
Regents Biology Bacterial cells Types of cells animal cells plant cells Prokaryotes Eukaryotes VS.
14
Regents Biology Cell size comparison Bacterial cell Animal cell micron = micrometer = 1/1,000,000 meter diameter of human hair = ~20 microns most prokaryotes (bacteria) 1-10 microns eukaryotic cells 10-100 microns
15
Regents Biology Cell Types Eukaryotic: Contains a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles. Rod shaped chromosomes Found in all kingdoms except the Eubacteria and Archaebacteria Prokaryotic: Does not contain a nucleus or other membrane bound organelles. One circular chromosome Found only in the Eubacteria and Archaebacteria Kingdoms
16
Regents Biology Eukaryotic Example
17
Regents Biology Prokaryotic Examples Bacteria
18
Regents Biology Types of Organisms 1. One celled organisms (unicellular) are able to carry on all of the life functions. Amoeba Paramecium
19
Regents Biology 3. Multicellular Organisms Can consist of hundreds of thousands of cells that must be specialized to carry out specific functions (Differentiation).
20
Regents Biology Regents Question Which statement best compares a multicellular organism to a single-celled organism? (1) A multicellular organism has organ systems that interact to carry out life functions, while a single-celled organism carries out life functions without using organ systems. (2) A single-celled organism carries out fewer life functions than each cell of a multicellular organism. (3) A multicellular organism always obtains energy through a process that is different from that used by a single-celled organism. (4) The cell of a single-celled organism is always much larger than an individual cell of a multicellular organism.
21
Regents Biology Regents Answer (1) A multicellular organism has organ systems that interact to carry out life functions, while a single-celled organism carries out life functions without using organ systems.
22
Regents Biology Aim: How are living things organized? HW: Organization of an organ system worksheet Do Now: Working with the person next to you, describe how a writer builds a book, starting with one letter!
23
Regents Biology How are stories built? Letters Letters Words Words Sentences Sentences Paragraph Paragraph Pages Pages Chapters Chapters Stories Stories
24
Regents Biology Why study cells? bodies are made up of cells
25
Regents Biology Levels of Organization 1. Cell – the basic unit of structure and function. The Building Blocks of Life! In most multicellular organisms, cells become specialized (differentiation).
26
Regents Biology
28
Levels of Organization 2. Tissue – a group of cells that are structurally similar and perform the same function.
29
Regents Biology
30
3. Organ – a group of tissues that work together to perform a specific function
31
Regents Biology 4. Organ System – a group of organs working together to perform a specific function
32
Regents Biology Levels of Organization CC ELLS GROUP TOGETHER TO FORM TISSUES TT ISSUES GROUP TOGETHER TO FORM ORGANS OO RGANS GROUP TOGETHER TO FORM ORGAN SYSTEMS OO RGAN SYSTEMS WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE AN ORGANISM Muscle cellSmooth muscle tissueStomachDigestive system
33
Regents Biology Regents Question The levels of organization for structure and function in the human body from least complex to most complex are 1) systems → organs → tissues → cells 2) cells → organs → tissues → systems 3) tissues → systems → cells → organs 4) cells → tissues → organs → systems
34
Regents Biology Regents Answer 4) cells → tissues → organs → systems
35
Regents Biology WITH YOUR “FRIEND”: 1.Make an analogy of the organization of organisms to anything you want. 2.Explain your analogy by drawing a picture, writing a story using the various levels of organization for names of characters, or making up a song, poem, rhyme, or rap. ****Be sure to include all of the following words: Cells Tissues Organs Organ systems Organism
36
Regents Biology Example: A computer: like an organism All portions of the computer that work together to type words makeup one of the organ systems. It is comprised of the keyboard, the processor that puts the letters on the screen, font and size selection, etc The keyboard: like one organ in the system Function keys, letter keys, number keys: all like different tissues within the organ The s key: like a cell within the letter keys tissue
37
Regents Biology Exit ticket : On a half of a piece of paper (share with a friend to conserve), write: 1. 2 things you learned today 2. A question you have after today’s lesson
