1. Cytology - the study of cells Mr. Young Biology

2. Anton van Leeuwenhoek 1670 – Dutch cloth merchant First scientist to observe living cells Father of microscopy

3. Anton van Leeuwenhoek Saw life in pond water First to observe Sperm Red blood cells Gunk from teeth

4. Leeuwenhoek's microscope consisted simply of: A) a screw for adjusting the height of the object being examined B) a metal plate serving as the body C) a skewer to impale the object and rotate it D) the lens itself, which was spherical

5. Robert Hooke 1665 – English Named cells after the small boxy rooms that monks live in

6. Robert Hooke He first saw and named "cells" while he was experimenting with a new instrument we now call a "microscope." For his experiment he cut very thin slices from cork. He looked at these slices under a microscope. He saw tiny box-like shapes.

7. Matthias Schleiden 1830 – German Botanist All plants are made of cells "One who wishes to be a botanist or zoologist without a microscope, is at least as great a fool as one who wants to observe the heavens without a telescope”

8. Theodor Schwann 1830 - German Worked with Schleiden Discovered all animals are made of cells

9. Rudolf Virchow CELL THEORY : * All cells come from pre-existing cells * Cell Division * First Cell?

10. The Cell Theory 1. All organisms are composed of one or more cells 2. The cell is the basic unit of organisms 3. All cells come from preexisting cells

11. Cytology – the study of cells Three basic parts of a cell 1 cytoplasm 2 nucleus 3 cell membrane

12. Two Kinds of Cells Prokaryotic Cells Small Simple No nucleus Bacteria

13. Eukaryotic cells - all other cells These include protists fungi plants animals Have a nucleus Cells contain structures called organelles.

14. Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic

15. Plasma membrane All cells are surrounded by a plasma membrane. It separates the contents of the cell from its environment and regulates the passage of molecules into and out of the cell.

16. Active cells An actively metabolizing cell needs a large surface area. Cells are limited in size because larger cells have a smaller surface to volume ratio.metabolizing

17. Surface:volume Notice that the larger cube has more surface area and more volume but less surface area for each cubic centimeter of volume. For any given geometric object (cubes, spheres, etc.), smaller objects have a greater surface to volume ratio (surface:volume) than larger objects of the same shape.

18. Surface: Volume Compare the surface to volume ratio (surface: volume) of a cube that is 1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm with that of a cube that is 10 cm X 10 cm X 10 cm.

19. Larger cube (10 cm X 10 cm X 10 cm) The surface area of one side = 10 cm X 10 cm = 100 square cm (or 100 cm2). There are 6 sides, so the total surface area = 600 X cm2 = 600 cm2. Volume = 10 cm X 10 cm X 10 cm = 1000 cubic cm (or 1000 cm3) Surface:Volume = 600 cm2/1000 cm3 = 0.6 cm2/cm3 (or 0.6 square cm of surface area for each cubic cm of volume).

20. Smaller cube (1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm) The surface area of one side = 1 cm X 1 cm = 1 square cm (or 1 cm2). There are 6 sides, so the total surface area = 6 X cm2 = 6 cm2. Volume = 1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm = 1 cubic cm (or 1 cm3) Surface:Volume = 6 cm2/1 cm3 = 6 cm2/cm3 (or 6 square cm of surface area for each cubic cm of volume)

21. Cell volume : surface area Every cell is surrounded by a plasma membrane. Most cells are very small and therefore have a high ratio of plasma membrane surface to cell volume.

22. Microvilli Cells that are specialized for absorption (ex: intestinal cells) have folds in the plasma membrane called microvilli that increase the surface area.

23. Pseudopodia are temporary extensions of the plasma membrane used for movement or to engulf particles. Pseudopodia can be seen in the Amoeba below.

24. Cell Wall The cell wall functions to support and protect the cell. Plants have cell walls composed of cellulose; fungi have walls composed of chitin.cellulosechitin The cell walls of these onion skin cells can be easily seen.

25. Nucleus The nuclei can be seen in the photograph of human cheek cells The largest organelle

26. Cytoplasm – the material enclosed by the plasma membrane, excluding the nucleus

27. Cilia and Flagella hairlike structures projecting from the cell that function to move the cell by their movements. They contain cytoplasm and are enclosed by the plasma membrane.cytoplasmplasma membrane
