1
Definition of Cell A cell is the smallest unit of life that can perform ALL the life functions.
2
Cell Theory All living things are made up of cells.
Cells are the smallest working units of all living things. All cells come from preexisting cells through cell division.
3
Examples of Cells Amoeba Proteus Plant Stem Bacteria Red Blood Cell
Nerve Cell
4
Eukaryotic Prokaryotic
Two Types of Cells Eukaryotic Prokaryotic
5
Prokaryotic Cell Prokaryotes No nucleus No membrane bound organelles
Unicellular Some have cilia (hair-like structures) and some flagella (whip-like tail) for movement. Example:bacteria
6
Eukaryotic Cell Contain organelles surrounded by membranes
Most living organisms, (multicellular) Plant Animal
7
Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes
No nucleus No organelles Bacteria Much smaller Unicellular Eukaryotes Nucleus Organelles Unicellular (protists) and multicellular (animal and plants) Amoeba Plant Cell
8
Animal Cell Plant Cell
9
Cell Parts Organelles little organs inside of a cell.
They are used to: transport of materials capture and release energy Building proteins waste disposal Send and receive information movement Cell membrane Cell wall cytoplasm Nucleus Chromosomes Endoplasmic reticulum Smooth / rough Ribosomes Mitochondria Golgi bodies Vacuoles Lysozome Chloroplast
10
Animal Cell Figure 7-5 Plant and Animal Cells Section 7-2
Go to Section:
11
Cytoplasm Gel-like mixture Nickname: Cell Jelly
Function: Provides the cell with structure and support
12
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Cell membrane Nickname: “The Gate” Function: Controls movement in and out of the cell
13
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Nucleus Nickname: “The Control Center” Function: Directs cells activities/holds DNA
14
Chromosomes In nucleus Made of DNA
Contain instructions for traits & characteristics Contains hereditary material
15
Do Now Describe the differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
16
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Nickname: “Cellular Highway” Function: The internal delivery system of the cell
17
Endoplasmic Reticulum
2 Types: Rough ER: Rough appearance because it has ribosomes Function: helps make proteins, that’s why it has ribosomes Smooth ER: NO ribosomes Function: makes fats or lipids
18
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Mitochondria Nickname: “The Powerhouse” Function: Energy formation Breaks down food to make ATP ATP: is the major fuel for all cell activities that require energy
19
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Golgi Bodies Nickname: The Post office Function: packages, modifies, and transports materials to different locations inside/outside of the cell. Appearance: stack of pancakes
20
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Ribosomes Nickname: “Construction Workers” Function: makes proteins Found in all cells, prokaryotic and eukaryotic
21
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Lysosomes: circular, but bigger than ribosomes) Nickname: “Cellular Stomach” Function: digests food into small particles the rest of the cell can use and to destroy old cells.
22
Plant Cell Now let’s talk about structures only found in PLANT Cells!!
Figure 7-5 Plant and Animal Cells Section 7-2 Now let’s talk about structures only found in PLANT Cells!! Go to Section:
23
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Vacuoles Nickname: Water Tower Function: stores water This is what makes lettuce crisp When there is no water, the plant wilts Found in animal cells too, but much smaller.
24
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Cell Wall Nickname: The Protector Function: provides support and protection to the cell membrane Found outside the cell membrane in plant cells
25
Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function
Chloroplasts Nickname: Solar Panels Function: traps energy from the sun to produce food for the plant cell Green in color because of chlorophyll, which is a green pigment
26
Plant vs. Animal Cells Plants Animals Cell wall Cell membrane
Chloroplasts Large vacuole Animals Cell membrane No Chloroplasts Smaller vacuoles
27
List the three parts of the cell theory.
