1
Warm Up: What are the three parts of cell theory?
All organisms are composed of cells The cell is the structural unit of life Cells arise only from previously existing cells
2
Cell Theory
3
The Microscope Dutch lens grinder
Invented the first compound microscope around 1600
4
The “CELL” Robert Hooke
5
Observed cork under microscope-1655
Noted many chambers that he called “cells” Publishes Micrographia
6
Designed his own microscope- 1683
Discovered single celled protozoan Anton van Leeuwenhoek
7
The Cell Theory German scientists Schleiden and Schwann develop Cell Theory All organisms are composed of cells The cell is the structural unit of life Cells arise only from previously existing cells
8
Henri Dutrochet "The cell is the fundamental element of organization"
9
In 1858, Rudolf Virchow concluded that all cells come from pre-existing cells thus completing the classical cell theory.
11
Cell Types Prokaryotic Eukaryotic “true nucleus” “before nucleus”
No membrane bound organelles Lacks nucleus Most unicellular organisms are prokaryotic Monera Eukaryotic “true nucleus” Membrane bound organelles Contain nucleus Most organisms are made of these cells Plant cells, human cells
12
Cell Types
13
Organelles Specialized part of the cell “little organs” Animal Cell
14
Plasma or cell membrane
1. Forms a thin, flexible boundary between a cell and its environment 2. Selectively permeable -Allow some substances to pass through while keeping others out
15
Plasma membrane Phospholipid bilayer hydrophilic head-water loving
Hydrophobic tail-water fearing
16
Plasma membrane-other components
Moving with and among phospholipids 1.Proteins 2.Carbohydrates 3.Cholesterol “Fluid mosaic”- bilayer creates a sea in which these molecules can move around
17
Plasma membrane Proteins
Receptors- proteins on outer surface that serve to transmit signals to inner cell Structural-proteins on inner surface that serve to anchor the plasma membrane to the inner cell Transport- proteins that span the entire membrane, moving needed substances or waste in and out
18
Plasma membrane Cholesterol- positioned among phospholipids- helps prevent fatty acid tails from sticking together Carbohydrates- attached to proteins, often stick out of plasma membrane- helps cell identify signals
19
Organelles within the cell-Eukaryotes
Each organelle has a unique structure and function Allow cell to carry out essential processes
20
Cytoplasm: clear fluid jelly-like
21
Nuclear Structures Nucleus: Nucleolus: Nuclear Membrane:
control center contains DNA Nucleolus: small dense region makes ribosomes Nuclear Membrane: protects the nucleus
22
Ribosomes
23
Ribosomes The “factories” of cells Involved in protein synthesis
24
Endoplasmic Reticulum
25
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Extensive membrane system of folded sacs and interconnected channels- large surface area for cellular functions to take place Continuous with outer nuclear membrane Serves as the site for protein and lipid synthesis Two types Rough (ER)- has ribosomes on it that produce proteins for export Smooth (ER)- lacks ribosomes and is involved in membrane lipid synthesis
26
Golgi apparatus Flattened stack of membranes
Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins into sacs called vesicles Vesicles can than fuse with the cell’s plasma membrane to release proteins to the environment outside the cell or they can be used internally
27
Golgi apparatus
28
Mitochondria Powerhouse of cell Site of aerobic respiration
Sugar+oxygen ATP+carbondioxide+water
29
Lysosomes Lysosomes- found only in animal cells “Clean-up crew”
Contain enzymes for use in the breakdown of worn-out organelles Food particles Bacteria and viruses
30
Centrioles Groups of microtubules that function during cell division
Usually located near the nucleus Present in animal cells and most protists
31
Cilia and Flagella-cell movement
Some eukaryotic cells have these, composed of microtubules Cilia- short numerous projections that look like hairs- oar like motion Flagella- longer, less numerous-whip motion
32
What about Plant cells? Similar in many respects to animal cells
Differences Cell wall Chloroplasts Vacuoles-large
33
Cell Wall Thick, rigid, mesh of cellulose fibers
Rigid cell walls allow plants to stand at great heights
34
General Sherman- largest living thing
35
Chloroplasts Site of Photosynthesis
Converts solar energy to chemical energy-ATP and sugars Chlorophyll: green pigment which captures light
36
Vacuoles Membrane bound vesicle
Used to store food, waste products, enzymes, and other materials needed by the cell Some animal cells contain vacuoles- they are much smaller than those in plants
37
Comparing Plant & Animal Cells
Structure Animal ? Plant? cell membrane cell wall nucleus ribosomes E.R.
38
golgi lysosomes vacuoles mitochondria chloroplasts
39
Comparing Plant & Animal Cells
Structure Animal ? Plant? cell membrane Yes cell wall No nucleus ribosomes E.R.
40
golgi Yes lysosomes No vacuoles Small Large mitochondria chloroplasts
41
Cellular Transport Moves substances within the cell and moves substances into and out of the cell Diffusion/osmosis Facilitated diffusion Active transport
42
Diffusion Random motion from high concentration to low
No energy required Rate of diffusion is affected by Concentration Temperature Pressure
43
Osmosis The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane
If cell is in a solution that has a lower concentration of solute/water=hypotonic If cell is in a solution that has a higher concentration of solute=hypertonic If cell is in a solution that has an equal concentration of solute=isotonic
44
Facilitated Diffusion
Uses transport proteins to move ions and small molecules across the plasma membrane Uses concentration gradient for energy Conformational change in protein allows passage
45
Active Transport Moves substances against concentration gradient
Accomplished by protein pumps Na+/K+ ATPase pump is an example Requires energy(ATP)
46
Transport of Large Particles
Endocytosis- cell surrounds a substance with plasma membrane- pinches it of to form vacuole Exocytosis- cell releases a substance at plasma membrane Both processes require energy(ATP)
