Cell theory
2
The discovery of cells and their structure is linked to the development of the magnifying lenses, particularly the microscope in the late 1600’s Many scientists of the time recognized the importance of cells as building blocks of living tissue. But not until 1839 did the general statement of "cell theory" receive general acceptance Learn Biology
3
History: The cell theory Cells are the basic unit of life.
Cells are the basic structural and organizational unit of life. Cells derive from pre-existing cells.
4
Exceptions to the Cell Theory:
Where did the first cell come from? Viruses have a non-cellular structure and can only REPRODUCE within a host cell Mitochondria & Chloroplasts have their own DNA can reproduce within a cell

ORGANELLE The TRAIL Oregon
You’ve all been hired as the new sheriffs in Cell Town. A band of Organelles has escaped from the local jail. YOUR JOB: Make “Wanted” Posters for all of the Organelles. Use pages in the textbook.

Functions of the Cell Membrane
To REGULATE the movement (TRANSPORT) of molecules from one side of the membrane to another To recognize chemical signals and communicate with other cells using RECEPTORS and I.D markers
10
Cell Membrane Structure
“Fluid-Mosaic” model Semi-permeable A double layer of lipids (fats) with many carrier proteins and receptors imbedded in them Channel/Transport Proteins – transports larger molecules into and out of the cell with the use of energy (active transport) or without (facilitated diffusion) Receptors – aid in cell communication as they pick up and receive chemical signals
11
Cell membrane
12
Do now With a partner on a piece of paper/ in your notes answer these questions: Based on what we did yesterday why is the “Fluid-Mosaic” model an appropriate name for the cell membrane? What does it mean to be selectively permeable? And why is it beneficial for the cell? Timer
13
Transport Passive transport= no energy by cell
Diffusion =Particles move HIGH concentratio LOW concentration Osmosis= Water (H2O) move HIGH LOW
14
Do now 10/4/17 With a partner:
Explain how larger molecules such as starch enter into the cell? State three facts about passive transport.
15
Active transport Transport Particles go from LOW to HIGH concentration
DOES require energy from the cell.
16
Examples of active transport
Sodium potassium pump
17
Active transport
18
Materials that CAN pass through the membrane are SMALL:
Small enough to move through the lipids: Carbon dioxide (CO2) Oxygen (O2) Larger or polar(ionic charge), but can use the protein channels to get through: Sugars (glucose – C6H12O6) Amino acids Water (H2O) Salt
19
Passive vs. Active

21
Movement Across the Membrane
When do the molecules move? When there is an unequal amount of solute and water on either side of a membrane
