1. Exercise 4 The Cell—Anatomy & Division

2. What is a cell? Structural & functional unit of ALLLLLL living things Structural & functional unit of ALLLLLL living things Different sizes & shapes Different sizes & shapes Different functions Different functions Components may vary but have many common features Components may vary but have many common features

3. Cell Compartments Plasma membrane (plasmalemma) Plasma membrane (plasmalemma) Separates cell’s contents from outside environment Separates cell’s contents from outside environment Controls what goes in and out of the cell Controls what goes in and out of the cell Nucleus Nucleus “control center” of cell “control center” of cell DNA DNA Cytoplasm Cytoplasm Fluid AND other contents outside the nucleus Fluid AND other contents outside the nucleus

5. Cytoplasmic Organelles Chromatin (in nucleus) Chromatin (in nucleus) DNA + proteins—when not replicating, DNA is in this threadlike form all over the nucleus DNA + proteins—when not replicating, DNA is in this threadlike form all over the nucleus Chromosome (in nucleus) Chromosome (in nucleus) When DNA replicates, chromatin becomes tightly coiled, short, rod-shaped When DNA replicates, chromatin becomes tightly coiled, short, rod-shaped Nucleolus Nucleolus Dense protein & RNA mass in nucleus Dense protein & RNA mass in nucleus Forms ribosomes which are then transported to cytoplasm Forms ribosomes which are then transported to cytoplasm
