1. 3.1 Cell Theory

2. Structure vs. Function
What’s the difference between structure and function?
Structure – parts put together to form a whole. Eg. Your skeleton
Function – the action. Eg. Your bones allow you to move and protect your ograns
What would be the structure and function of cells?
Structure – atoms, molecules, organelles.
Function – what these parts do. Eg. Vacuoles store materials in the cell.

3. Cell Theory
Much research accumulated from 1665 onward using a microscope and discovering cells. The research on the cell is summarized as the Cell theory.
Major principles of the cell theory:
All organisms are made of cells
All existing cells are produced by other living cells.
The cell is the most basic unit of life.

4. Cells Cytoplasm – A jelly-like substance that cells are filled with.
Organelles – Structures specialized to perform processes within the cell.
2 main types of cells:
Prokaryotic – no nucleus, or membrane-bound organelles. Cell’s DNA is suspended in the cytoplasm
Eukaryotic – have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Nucleus has the genetic information in it.

9. Prokaryotic of Eukaryotic?

10. 3.2 Cell Organelles

11. Cell organelles (in eukaryotic cells)
Cytoskeleton – a network of proteins that forms long threads/fibers that crisscross the entire cell. It supports and shapes the cell.

12. Cytoskeleton 3 main types of cytoskeleton fibers:
Microtubules – long hollow tubes that give cell its shape. They act as tracks for organelles to move on.
Intermediate filaments – a bit smaller than microtubules, give cell its strength.
Microfilaments – smallest, tiny threads that allow cell to move and divide.
Eg. Muscle cell contract
and relax
What’s in the picture?
Microtubles

13. Plant Cell

14. Animal Cell

15. Cell organelles
Q: What is the difference between a plant and an animal cell?
Plant cell – chloroplasts, central vacuole and cell wall
Animal cell – centrioles and lysosomes

16. Cell organelle structure and function
Read and write notes on the following organelles:
Group 1 – Nucleus, Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), Ribosomes, Golgi Apparatus, Vesicles, and Mitochondria.
Group 2 – Vacuoles, Lysosomes, Centrosome and Centrioles, Cell Walls, Chloroplasts.
Once finished, find a partner from the opposite group and share your answers to complete your worksheet

17. Extra time/HW
Go onto Classzone and complete the interactive Cell structure activity
Tomorrow – team challenge based on the organelles
