Early Microscopes - Anton Van Leeuwenhoek The father of microscopy, Anton Van Leeuwenhoek of Holland (1632-1723). The father of microscopy, Anton Van Leeuwenhoek of Holland (1632-1723). Anton Van Leeuwenhoek was the first to see and describe bacteria (1674), yeast plants, the teeming life in a drop of water, and the circulation of blood corpuscles in capillaries.

Robert Hooke In 1665, the English physicist Robert Hooke looked at a sliver of cork through a microscope lens and noticed some "pores" or "cells" in it.

Hooke was the first person to use the word "cell" to identify microscopic structures when he was describing cork.

Organelles The largest and most important organelle is the nucleus. The largest and most important organelle is the nucleus. The nucleus controls everything that happens inside the cell. (Like the cells brain.) The nucleus controls everything that happens inside the cell. (Like the cells brain.) All cells are surrounded by a protective layer called the cell membrane. All cells are surrounded by a protective layer called the cell membrane. The cell membrane is semi-permeable, which means that it lets some substances pass through it, but not others. The cell membrane is semi-permeable, which means that it lets some substances pass through it, but not others. The rest of the cell is called cytoplasm. Cytoplasm is a liquid containing chemicals needed to keep the cell alive as well as hold the floating parts of the cell together. The rest of the cell is called cytoplasm.

Biological Drawings (5) Cells Vocabulary Quiz Rules for Biological Diagramming (HO) Epithelial cell example Rubric for Biological Diagramming Biological Drawing Lab (HO)
28
Rules for Biological Diagramming 1. 1. Use unlined white paper and a sharp HB pencil. 2. 2. Leave an empty margin of about 1 cm all around your page. 3. 3. Print your name at the top right hand corner. (Use a ruler.) 4. 4. When drawing cells, choose only one cell and show the edge of neighboring cells to show the connection. 5. 5. Title your drawing. (ex. Figure 1 – Epithelial Cell.) 6. 6. Draw the outline of your subject with clear and unbroken lines. Your drawing should be about half the page. When possible, your drawing should be vertical. 7. 7. Use lines to show the out of visible structures. Do not shade or colour your drawings in any way. Keep the objects in proportion to one another. 8. 8. Use a ruler to draw horizontal lines from the structures to the right of the drawing to label (print). No crossing lines! 9. 9. Measure (in cm or mm) your diagram at its longest point; show measure on the left side of the diagram. 10. 10. At the bottom right corner, print the subject drawn, the magnification of the drawing, and the scale.

Biological Drawing Lab The first specimen you draw will take up this entire side of paper (handout). On the other side, divide your sheet into 4 squares each representing one biological drawing (total of 5). Be sure to follow all the steps properly and be NEAT!

Microscope Lab 1 (6) Preparing a wet mount notes. Lab
33
Preparing a wet mount 1. 1. Obtain a slide, cover slip, and water bottle. 2. 2. Place a drop of water in the middle of slide. 3. 3. Obtain specimen. 4. 4. Place specimen in the drop of water. 5. 5. Holding the cover slip at a 45 degree angle to the slide, drag the cover slip into the water and gently lower until cover slip covers specimen and pushes air our from the specimen. To darken specimen: 1. 1. Obtain a bottle of iodine. 2. 2. Place a drop of iodine at the edge of the cover slip. 3. 3. Allow for iodine to move under the cover slip. Do MICROSCOPE LAB!

Microscope and Cell Theory Test (7) Microscope Test Importance of Cell Division Reproduction and Cell Division How do cells divide
35
Importance of Cell Division Have you ever wiped out on your skateboard or bike? Imagine how terrible it would be if every scratch or flaw on your skin remained. Cells come from pre-existing cells through the process of cell division.
36
Functions of Cell Division Healing and tissue repair. To increase the number of cells (therefore increase the size of the organism). To replace dead and worn out cells. To create life (in unicellular organisms such as bacteria, and multicellular organisms such as humans).
37
Why don’t cells just expand so we can grow, rather than divide? If the cell became too large, there would not be enough room to exchange materials through the cell membrane and the nucleus would get smushed therefore not allowing messages to be relayed efficiently. In short, cell division allows an organism to grow, while still maintaining a cell size that keeps the organism healthy. Cell division is one of the most studied, yet least understood areas of biology.
38
Reproduction and Cell Division Organisms of all species reproduce. They may reproduce asexually or sexually. In asexual reproduction a single organism gives rise to offspring with identical genetic information. Ex. the cells of the human body, other than those found in the male testes and female ovaries and bacteria use asexual reproduction to produce offspring by the process of mitosis. Daughter (46) Daughter (46) Mother (46) Mitosis
39
In sexual reproduction, genetic information from two cells is combined to produce a new genetically unique organism. Usually, sexual reproduction occurs when two specialized sex cells unite to form a fertilized egg called a zygote. Egg cell (23) Zygote (46) Sperm Cell (23) Sex Cells
