Biology Unit C: Life to Lifestyle
Chapter 8: Structure and Function of Plant and Animal Cells Chapter 9: Life Functions Common to Living Things Chapter 10: Food for Life Chapter 11: Maintaining Homeostasis (with Mr. Watts)
3
8.1 A Closer Look at Cells We will be looking at the question: How do cells, which are microscopic and invisible to the naked eye, work together in organs and organ systems to carry out life functions?
4
Microscope A microscope is an optical instrument used for viewing small objects Red blood cells
5
Compound Microscope Uses light
6
Preparing a slide Materials: glass slide medicine dropper slip cover
tweezers
7
Compound Microscope Uses light
8
Binocular = 2 eyepieces Monocular = 1 eyepiece
10
Objective Lenses: As you increase the magnification the specimen appears larger
4x 10x 40x x

Magnification
15
Electron Microscope Uses beam of electrons
16
Electron Microscope Uses beam of electrons
17
2 types of Electron Microscope
1. TEM: transmission electron microscope Focuses a beam of electrons at a very thin slice of the object under study Object is covered in chemicals and is placed in the vacuum-sealed part of the microscope Specimen must be dead to observe it
18
TEM: high resolution (1nm) Bacteria
19
Electron Microscope 2. SEM: scanning electron microscope
Beam of electrons is passed over the specimen being observed Creates a 3D image on the computer screen Can examine living things

8.2 Cell Theory
24
Living or Non-living? Examples of living things: Non-living things:
Viruses, bacteria, insects, plants, animals Non-living things: Ice grows, is it living? Rocks can be moved, are they living? It is living if it: Grows Reproduces Moves or has transportation
25
Organelles: little “organs” or parts inside cells
Cell: Smallest unit of life Tissues: cells combined to work together Organ: combined tissues to perform specialized task Systems: like respiratory, cardiac, digestive systems Organism: living multi-cellular being
26
Cell Theory All living things are made up of cells
Cells are responsible for structure and function All cells are reproduced from other living cells

Cell as a hockey rink analogy
Boards = Cell membrane keep crazy fans or bad bacteria out Ribosomes= Little red face off dots Tiny protein-making factory Mitochondria = Power Play Forwards Lysosome: Net where pucks disappear Referee = Nucleus Puck = Nutrients and messengers passed around Cytoplasm = Ice
32
review Key terms: microscope (compound and electron), cell, organelle, living, nonliving, tissue, organ, system, nucleus, mitochondrion, cytoplasm, cell membrane, cell wall, chloroplast 3ab, 6, 8, 10, 11
