CELLS
2
Cells The basic unit of all living things.
Are made up of “little organs” called organelles.
3
Blood cells attacking bacteria
There are many types of cells but they can all be categorized as either Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic Skin Cells Mold spores Blood cells attacking bacteria Bacteria Paramecium Dragonfly wing cell Plant Leaf cells Pollen
4
Prokaryotic Eukaryotic
5
PROKARYOTE
6
Prokaryotes Bacteria Very small Oldest cells on Earth
Very simple: No membrane- bound organelles or nucleus DNA circular found in cytoplasm
7
Typical Bacteria No Nucleus (DNA tangled in cell) No Chloroplasts
Have Cell Membrane NO Mitochondria Have Ribosomes
8
EUKARYOTE
9
Eukaryotes Any cell that is not bacteria (includes plants and animals)
Larger Newer, more recently evolved Have membrane-bound organelles Have membrane bound nucleus that contains DNA in double helix.
10
Two Main Types of Eukaryotes that we are familiar with are
PLANTS and ANIMALS
11
Typical Plant Cell Has cell wall (Plant Skeleton)
Has chloroplasts (for photosynthesis) Square shape Have Cell Membrane Have Mitochondria Have Nucleus Have Ribosomes No Lysosomes
12
Typical Animal Cell No cell wall No chloroplasts Have Cell Membrane
Have Mitochondria Have Nucleus Have Ribosomes
13
ORGANELLES
14
Organelles Cell Membrane- Acts as boundary and bouncer determining what comes in and what gets out (phospholipids) Nucleus- Contains DNA (genetic information) “Brain of cell” Ribosomes- Makes protein (RNA gives code from DNA –translation) Chloroplasts- performs Photosynthesis (makes sugar from sunlight) Mitochondria- Breaks sugars and releases usable energy
