1 HOMEOSTASIS IN CELLS pp

2 Why are cells so small? How does a cell maintain homeostasis?

3 CELL REVIEW Cell membrane Genetic material (DNA)
Ribosomes: make proteins Cytoplasm: surrounds the cell’s organelles

4 CELL TYPES Prokaryotes: oldest living cells that lack membrane-bound organelles, are unicellular, and very small in size Eukaryotes: contain a membrane-bound nucleus and organelles and much bigger than prokaryotic cells

5 Prokaryotic Cell

7 Animal Cell

8 Plant Cell

9 HOMEOSTASIS Organisms have mechanisms that keep conditions within a specific range, despite changes in the environment Changes in the environment for a single cell can include changes in temperature, water, concentration of solutes in surrounding environment, and build up of wastes

13 Cell membrane Selectively permeable (semi-permeable): controls what comes into and out of the cell Made of phospholipids that form a lipid bilayer

14 Fluid mosaic model: cell membrane behaves more like a fluid than solid and the layers are always moving

15

16 The cell membrane has many different macromolecules imbedded within the phospholipids
- Carbohydrates and lipids can be use for cell-to- cell communication or as cell markers - Peripheral proteins are attached to the surface of the cell membrane - Integral proteins are embedded in the bilayer and are often channel proteins. - Cholesterol makes the membrane more fluid and less rigid at colder temperatures

17 How does the cell membrane maintain homeostasis in a cell?
