Unit 2 – The Cell and How it Works Part 3 The first PowerPoint and the Microscope PowerPoint should go before this! Put them all together to study for the test!
2
Where we are going with this: So we know there are two different types of cells! Prokaryotes we will get into in another chapter later in the year. Eukaryotes (Eukaryotic Cells) are what we will focus on here What is inside of them How do they work!
3
Soooo…. What is in inside the eukaryotic cell? Plasma Membrane Nucleus DNA Ribosomes Endomembrane System Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Golgi Apparatus Lysosomes Vacuoles Ribosomes Mitochondria Chloroplasts Cytoskeletons
4
Now we will figure how they all work!
5
Plasma Membrane Structure The key to knowing how the membrane works = Regulates what goes in and out The Phospholipid Bilayer Phospholipids You can call it the phospholipid sea and the proteins float like icebergs.
6
The Nucleus It contains our genes (which are in our DNA)
7
Ribosomes Some things you should know about Ribosomes: Site of protein synthesis Made of 2 parts Can be found in “cytosol” or on “rough ER” Location determines function of proteins
8
Find the plasma membrane, the nucleus and the ribosomes. Name one thing about each!
9
Endomembrane System Membrane organelles within the cytoplasm Include: Endoplasmic Reticulum Golgi Apparatus Lysosomes Vacuoles
10
The Energy Converters Chloroplasts (ONLY IN PLANTS) Performs photosynthesis Own DNA Double Membrane 3 compartments Mitochondria Site of cellular respiration Own DNA Double Membrane 2 compartments Also has cristae
11
Find the Endomembrane System, chloroplast and the mitochondria. Name one thing about each!
12
Cytoskeleton: Shape and movement Network of fibers that extend throughout the cytoplasm “Skeleton” and “muscle” of the cell Includes Microtubules Microfilaments Cilia & Flagella
13
Chemical Energy Form of potential energy that comes from the arrangement of atoms Carbs and fats have structures that make them especially rich in chemical energy.
14
ATP Molecules of ATP generated by breakdown of organic molecules (carbs, fats and other fuels) ATP then powers the cell’s work ATP acts like an energy shuttle, storing energy obtained from food and then releasing it as needed. Your cells continuously spend ATP. ATP
15
What is an Enzyme? Living organisms contain a vast collection of chemicals. Metabolism: ____________________________________________________ Metabolic reactions can’t occur without help! They need the assistance of ENZYMES! ___________________________________________ BIOLOGICAL CATALYSTS Each enzyme is specific.
16
How an Enzyme works:
17
Enzyme Inhibitors Sometimes, certain molecules can prevent a metabolic reaction How do they do this? By binding to an enzyme and disrupting it’s function
18
Passive Transport Is diffusion across a membrane NO ENERGY Goes from HIGH TO LOW….. Needs to be equal. EQUILIBRIUM Concentration Gradient
19
Other types of Passive Transport Facilitated Diffusion: ___________________________________________ Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide WATCH THIS VIDEO http://youtu.be/IaZ8MtF3C6M WATCH THIS VIDEO http://youtu.be/IaZ8MtF3C6M Osmosis ONLY IN WATER!!!: ____________________________________ Hypertonic Hypotonic Isontonic
20
Osmosis Fresh water Salt water Fresh water fish salt water fish
21
Water Balance in Cells
22
Active Transport Requires energy (uses ATP) Uses transport proteins to pump against the concentration gradient. Example: Sodium Potassium Pump Other types are exocytosis and endocytosis for large molecules.
