2
Leeuwenhoek made a simple microscope (mid 1600’s) magnified 270X Early microscope lenses made images larger but the image was not clear
3
Leeuwenhoek's Microscope 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
4
CELL THEORY A theory resulting from many scientists’ observations & conclusions Sch wan n Sch leid en Virc how
5
CELL THEORY 1. The basic unit of life is the cell. (Hooke) In 1665, an English scientist named Robert Hooke made an improved microscope and viewed thin slices of cork viewing plant cell walls Hooke named what he saw "cells"
6
CELL THEORY 2. All living things are made of 1 or more cells. Matthias Schleiden (botanist studying plants) Theodore Schwann (zoologist studying animals) stated that all living things were made of cells Schleiden Schwann
7
CELL THEORY 3. All cells divide & come from old cells. (Virchow) Virchow
8
MODERN MICROSCOPES A microscope is simple or compound depending on how many lenses it contains A lens makes an enlarged image & directs light towards you eye
9
A simple microscope has one lens Similar to a magnifying glass Magnification is the change in apparent size produced by a microscope
10
COMPOUND MICROSCOPE A compound microscope has multiple lenses –(eyepiece & objective lenses)
11
STEREOMICROSCOPE creates a 3D image
12
TOTAL MAGNIFICATION Powers of the eyepiece (10X) multiplied by objective lenses determine total magnification.
13
ELECTRON MICROSCOPES More powerful; some can magnify up to 1,000,000X Use a magnetic field in a vacuum to bend beams of electrons Images must be photographed or produced electronically
14
Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) Electron microscope image of a spider produces realistic 3D image only the surface of specimen can be observed Electron microscope image of a fly foot
15
Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) produces 2D image of thinly sliced specimen detailed cell parts (only inside a cell) can be observed
16
Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) able to show arrangement of atoms
17
Cell Structure & Function http://koning.ecsu.ctstateu.edu/cell/cell.html
18
Definition of Cell A cell is the smallest unit that is capable of performing life functions.
19
Examples of Cells Amoeba proteus Plant Stem Red Blood Cell Nerve Cell Bacteria
20
Two Types of Cells Prokaryotic Eukaryotic
21
Prokaryotic Do not have structures surrounded by membranes Few internal structures One-celled organisms, Bacteria http://library.thinkquest.org/C004535/prokaryotic_cells.html
22
Eukaryotic Contain organelles surrounded by membranes Most living organisms PlantAnimal http://library.thinkquest.org/C004535/eukaryotic_cells.html
23
“Typical” Animal Cell http://web.jjay.cuny.edu /~ acarpi/NSC/images/cell.gif
24
http://waynesword.palomar.edu/images/plant3.gif “Typical” Plant Cell
25
Cell Parts Organelles
26
Surrounding the Cell
27
Cell Membrane Outer membrane of cell that controls movement in and out of the cell Double layer http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
28
Cell Wall Most commonly found in plant cells & bacteria Supports & protects cells http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
29
Inside the Cell
30
Nucleus Directs cell activities Separated from cytoplasm by nuclear membrane Contains genetic material - DNA
31
Nuclear Membrane Surrounds nucleus Made of two layers Openings allow material to enter and leave nucleus http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
32
Chromosomes In nucleus Made of DNA Contain instructions for traits & characteristics http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
33
Nucleolus Inside nucleus Contains RNA to build proteins http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
34
Cytoplasm Gel-like mixture Surrounded by cell membrane Contains hereditary material
35
Endoplasmic Reticulum Moves materials around in cell Smooth type: lacks ribosomes Rough type (pictured): ribosomes embedded in surface http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
36
Ribosomes Each cell contains thousands Make proteins Found on ER & floating throughout the cell http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
37
Mitochondria Produces energy through chemical reactions – breaking down fats & carbohydrates Controls level of water and other materials in cell Recycles and decomposes proteins, fats, and carbohydrates http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
38
Golgi Bodies Protein 'packaging plant' Move materials within the cell Move materials out of the cell http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
39
Lysosome Digestive 'plant' for proteins, fats, and carbohydrates Transports undigested material to cell membrane for removal Cell breaks down if lysosome explodes http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
40
Vacuoles Membrane-bound sacs for storage, digestion, and waste removal Contains water solution Help plants maintain shape http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
41
Chloroplast Usually found in plant cells Contains green chlorophyll Where photosynthesis takes place http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
