4. Organisms are made up of cells

5. Cell Theory All living things are made up of cells. Cells are the basic units of all living things. All cells come from pre-existing cells through cell division.

6. Microscopes

7. Definition of Cell A cell is the smallest unit that is capable of performing life functions.

8. The size

9. REVIEW List one key point from the cell theory What is the definition of a cell? What instrument do you use for looking at cells?

10. Animal cell anatomy

11. “Typical” Animal Cell

12. REVIEW List one main difference between plant and animal cells Do plant and animal cells have organelles? What is the function of organelles?

13. Plant cell anatomy

14. “Typical” Plant Cell

15. REVIEW What are the main similarities and differences between plant and animal cells?

16. Cell Parts Organelles

17. Surrounding the Cell

18. Cell Membrane structure lipid “tail” phosphate “head” Double layers of fat phospholipid bilayer Receptor molecule proteins that receive signals Carrier proteins Carry ions in and out of the cell

19. Cell Membrane structure separates cell from outside controls materials in and out of the cell O2, CO2, food, H2O, nutrients, waste recognizes signals from other cells allows communication between cells

20. Cell Wall Most commonly found in plant cells & bacteria Supports & protects cells Cellulose cell wall

21. REVIEW Which structure surrounds a cell? The functionos of the cell surface membrane? The structure of the cell surface membrane?

22. 21 Cell Membrane Proteins Proteins help move large molecules or aid in cell recognition Peripheral proteins are attached on the surface (inner or outer) Integral proteins are embedded completely through the membrane

23. 22 Recognize “self” GLYCOPROTEINS Glycoproteins have carbohydrate tails to act as markers for cell recognition

24. 23 Lies immediately against the cell wall in plant cells Pushes out against the cell wall to maintain cell shape Cell Membrane in Plants Cell membrane copyright cmassengale

25. 24 Nonliving layer Found in plants, fungi, & bacteria Made of cellulose in plants Made of peptidoglycan in bacteria Made of chitin in Fungi Cell wall Cell Wall copyright cmassengale

26. 25 Cell Wall Supports and protects cell Found outside of the cell membrane copyright cmassengale

27. Inside the Cell

28. 27 Organelles Very small (Microscopic) Perform various functions for a cell Found in the cytoplasm May or may not be membrane-bound

29. 28 Animal Cell Organelles Nucleolus Nucleus Nuclear envelope Ribosome (attached) Ribosome (free) Cell Membrane Rough endoplasmic reticulum Golgi apparatus Mitochondrion Smooth endoplasmic reticulum Centrioles

30. 29 Plant Cell Organelles copyright cmassengale

31. 30 Jelly-like substance enclosed by cell membrane Provides a medium for chemical reactions to take place Cytoplasm of a Cell cytoplasm copyright cmassengale

32. 31 Contains organelles to carry out specific jobs Found in ALL cells More on Cytoplasm cytoplasm copyright cmassengale

33. 32 Controls the normal activities of the cell Contains the DNA in chromosomes Bounded by a nuclear envelope (membrane) with pores Usually the largest organelle The Control Organelle - Nucleus

34. 33 Each cell has fixed number of chromosomes that carry genes Genes control cell characteristics Nucleus More on the Nucleus

35. 34 Inside the Nucleus - The genetic material (DNA) is found DNA is spread out And appears as CHROMATIN in non-dividing cells DNA is condensed & wrapped around proteins forming as CHROMOSOMES in dividing cells copyright cmassengale

36. 35 Mitochondrion (plural = mitochondria) “Powerhouse” of the cell Generate cellular energy (ATP) More active cells like muscle cells have MORE mitochondria Both plants & animal cells have mitochondria Site of CELLULAR RESPIRATION (burning glucose)

37. 36 MITOCHONDRIA Surrounded by a DOUBLE membrane (increases surface area for more chemical Reactions) Has its own DNA

38. 37 Interesting Fact --- Mitochondria Come from cytoplasm in the EGG cell during fertilization Therefore … You inherit your mitochondria from your mother! copyright cmassengale

39. 38 Rod shape Cell Powerhouse Mitochondrion ( mitochondria ) copyright cmassengale

40. 39 What do mitochondria do? Burns glucose to release energy (ATP) Stores energy as ATP “Power plant” of the cell

41. 40 Cilia & Flagella Cilia are shorter and more numerous on cells Flagella are longer and fewer (usually 1-3) on cells

42. 41 Cell Movement with Cilia & Flagella

43. 42 Cilia Moving Away Dust Particles from the Lungs Respiratory System copyright cmassengale

44. 43 Vacuoles Fluid filled sacks for storage Small or absent in animal cells Plant cells have a large Central Vacuole No vacuoles in bacterial cells copyright cmassengale

45. 44 Vacuoles In plants, they store Cell Sap Includes storage of sugars, proteins, minerals, lipids, wastes, salts, water, and enzymes

46. 45 Contractile Vacuole Found in unicellular protists like paramecia Regulate water intake by pumping out excess (homeostasis) Keeps the cell from lysing (bursting) Contractile vacuole animation

47. 46 Chloroplasts Found only in producers (organisms containing chlorophyll) Use energy from sunlight to make own food (glucose) Energy from sun stored in the Chemical Bonds of Sugars copyright cmassengale

48. 47 Chloroplasts Surrounded by DOUBLE membrane Outer membrane smooth Inner membrane modified into sacs called Thylakoids Thylakoids in stacks called Grana & interconnected Stroma – gel like material surrounding thylakoids

49. 48 Chloroplasts Contains its own DNA Contains enzymes & pigments for Photosynthesis Never in animal or bacterial cells Photosynthesis – food making process copyright cmassengale

50. 49 Cell Size Question: Are the cells in an elephant bigger, smaller, or about the same size as those in a mouse? copyright cmassengale

51. 50 Cell Size When the surface area is no longer great enough to get rid of all the wastes and to get in enough food and water, then the cell must divide Therefore, the cells of an organism are close in size

52. 51 Cell Size Question: Are the cells in an elephant bigger, smaller, or about the same size as those in a mouse? About the same size, but … The elephant has MANY MORE cells than a mouse! copyright cmassengale
