Cell Structure & Organisation
2
Chapter Outline (a) identify cell structures (including organelles) of typical plant and animal cells from diagrams, photomicrographs and as seen under the light microscope using prepared slides and fresh material treated with an appropriate temporary staining technique: chloroplasts cell membrane cell wall cytoplasm cell vacuoles nucleus
3
Chapter Outline (b) identify the following organelles from diagrams and electronmicrographs: mitochondria ribosomes (c) state the functions of the organelles identified above (d) compare the structure of typical animal and plant cells
4
Chapter Outline (e) state, in simple terms, the relationship between cell function and cell structure for the following: absorption – root hair cells conduction and support – xylem vessels transport of oxygen – red blood cells (f) differentiate cell, tissue, organ and organ system
5
What is a cell? Building blocks of life Simplest units of life Chemical reactions in the cell keeps us alive
6
Cells White Blood CellsRed Blood Cells
7
Cells Embryonic Stem Cells
8
Other Examples of Cells Amoeba Proteus Plant Stem Red Blood Cell Nerve Cell Bacteria
9
Cells What does a cell consists of? Each living cell consists of living material called protoplasm. Protoplasm: Water makes up 70% of protoplasm Proteins Carbohydrates Fats
10
Protoplasm 1)Cell Surface Membrane 2)Cytoplasm 3)Nucleus
11
Cell Structures in Plant and Animal Cells nucleus cytoplasm cell membrane cell wall cell vacuoles ribosomes mitochondria chloroplasts

13
Animal Cell
15
Cell Surface Membrane Surrounds the cytoplasm of the cell Partially permeable membrane –Allows some substances but not all to move in and out of the cell
16
Nucleus Surrounded by a membrane called the nuclear envelope Contains one or more nucleoli Contains chromatin Functions of the nucleus: 1. Controls cell activities such as cell growth and the repair of worn-out parts 2. Essential for cell division Nucleolus
17
Cytoplasm Between the cell surface membrane and the nucleus Contains enzymes and organelles
18
Organelles in the Cytoplasm Mitochondria Ribosomes Chloroplasts (only in plant cells) Cell vacuoles
19
Mitochondria Aerobic respiration occurs in the mitochondria Energy production Energy used to perform cell activities such as growth and reproduction
20
Ribosomes Required for protein synthesis in the cell
21
Vacuoles in Animal Cells A vacuole is a fluid-filled space enclosed by a membrane Animal cells have many small vacuoles that contain water and food substances such as proteins and carbohydrates

Plant Cell
25
Differences Between Animal and Plant Cells Animal CellsPlant Cells Cell wall absentCell wall present Chloroplasts absentChloroplasts present Vacuoles are small, temporary in animal cells Vacuoles are large, sap- filled in plant cells
26
Cell Wall Surrounds the cell surface membrane Cell wall is made of cellulose Protects the cell from injury Gives the plant cell a fixed shape Cell wall is fully permeable
27
Chloroplasts Found only in plant cells Chloroplasts contain a green pigment called chlorophyll Chlorophyll is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants make food
28
Vacuoles in Plant Cells Plant cells usually have a large central vacuole which contains a liquid called cell sap Cell sap contains dissolved substances such as sugars, mineral salts and amino acids

Specialised Cells Red Blood Cell Root Hair Cell Nerve Cell Sperm Cell Egg Cell
32
Cell Differentiation The process by which cells develop special structures or lose certain structures to enable them to carry out specific functions. Hence, cells become differentiated to form specialised cells. The structure of each cell is adapted to perform the specific functions of the cell.
33
Cell Differentiation
34
How is cell structure related to cell function? 1) Red Blood Cell Cell StructureAdaptation to Function Contains haemoglobinHaemoglobin transports oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body. No nucleusCarry more haemoglobin which leads to increased transport of oxygen. Circular biconcave shapeIncreased surface area to volume ratio of the cell. Hence, increased transport of oxygen.
35
How is cell structure related to cell function? Cell StructureAdaptation to Function Long hollow tubes (no protoplasm) Enables water to move easily through the lumen. Lignified wallsLignin strengthens the walls and prevents the xylem vessels from collapsing. 2) Xylem Vessel
36
How is cell structure related to cell function? Cell StructureAdaptation to Function Long and narrowIncreased surface area to volume ratio of the cell which leads to increased absorption of water and mineral salts from the soil. 3) Root Hair Cell Specialised Plant and Animal Cells: http://lgfl.skoool.co.uk/keystage3.aspx?id=63
37
How do cells work together in a multi-cellular organism? Organisation in Living Things: http://lgfl.skoool.co.uk/keystage3.aspx?id=63
38
Tissue A tissue is a group of similar cells which work together to perform a specific function. Examples of tissues: Muscle, the lining of the intestine, the lining of the lungs, phloem, root hair tissue Connective Tissue
39
Organ Different tissues may be combined together to form organs. An organ is a structure made up of different tissues working together to perform a specific function. Examples of organs: Heart, lung, brain, leaf, root Lungs
40
An organ is a structure made up of different tissues working together to perform a specific function.
41
Organ System Organs work together to form organ systems. Various systems work together to make up the entire organism. Examples of organ systems: Circulatory system, respiratory system, digestive system, nervous system and reproductive system Circulatory System
42
Organ Systems
43
SystemOrgans DigestiveEsophagus Stomach Small intestine Large intestine RespiratoryTrachea Lungs Organs work together to form organ systems.
