1 Today’s Lecture Summary: Microscopes A Tour of the Cell

2 Reading Assignment: Chapter 4

3 Learning Outcomes: By the end of today’s lecture, you should be able to: Recognize the different kinds of images seen through different microscopes Identify the major parts and functions of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

4 How we study cells: Light microscope (LM) Dissecting Microscope Transmission electron microscope (TEM) Scanning electron microscope (SEM)

5 Magnification: - the ratio of an object’s image to its real size (e.g. 40X, 100X) Resolving power: - the measure of the clarity of an image - the minimum distance two points can be separated and still be distinguished as being separate

6 Light/Compound Microscope: - uses light to magnify an object - gives a 2-D image - the different images are based on the various staining techniques used

7 Dissecting Microscope: - uses light to magnify an object - gives a 3-D image

8 Electron microscopes:  specimen preparation kills the cells  have a higher resolution than LM TEM:SEM: 2-D images3-D images

9 1 cm = 1/100m 1mm = 1/1000m 1μm = 1 micrometer = 1 millionth of a meter 1nm = 1 nanometer = 1 billionth of a meter Light and electron microscopes have different magnification and resolving powers.

10 Learning Outcomes: By the end of today’s lecture, you should be able to: Recognize the different kinds of images seen through different microscopes Identify the major parts and functions of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

11 Prokaryotic Cells:

12 Examples of prokaryotes: Bacillus polymxa : Escherichia coli :

13 There are limits to cell size:

14 Eukaryotic Cells - Animal Cell:

15 Eukaryotic Cells - Plant Cell:

16 Isolation of Cell Organelles: cell fractionation

17 Plasma membrane:

18 Nucleus and nucleolus:

19 Ribosomes: function in protein synthesis

20 Endoplasmic reticulum: - Smooth ER - Rough ER

21 Golgi apparatus:

22 Lysosome formation:

23

24

25 Lysosomes (TEM):

26 Macrophage destroying bacteria:

27 Overview of the endomembrane system:

28 Mitochondrion:

29 Cytoskeleton : functions in structural support and cell movement

30 Cytoskeleton in muscle cells:

31 Central vacuole: - found in plant cells

32 Chloroplast:

33 Cilia and flagella are found more often in animal cells:

34 Comparison of cilia and flagella:

35 Cell walls are found in plant & fungal cells:

36 Learning Outcomes: By the end of today’s lecture, you should be able to: Recognize the different kinds of images seen through different microscopes Identify the major parts and functions of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

37 Check for understanding…
