2. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Cell Theory Schleidon and Schwann All organisms are composed of one or more cells.  Metabolism and heredity occur within these cells. Cells are the basic units of organization for all organisms. Cells arise only by division of a previously existing cell.

3. Three Main Features of ALL Cells 1. Surrounded by a plasma membrane that encloses the cell and separates its contents from its surroundings - phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins (transport proteins and receptor proteins) 2. Genetic material is enclosed within a nucleus or a nucleoid 3. Cytoplasm Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies

4. Cells Are Small The human body has approx. 100 Trillion Cells Cell diameter range: 7.5 micrometers (RBC) to 150 micrometers (ovum)

5. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Cells Are Small Advantage of small cell size is explained by surface area-to-volume ratio.  As a cell’s size increases, its volume increases much more rapidly than surface area.  Cell membrane plays a key role in controlling cell function. - Small cells have more surface area per unit volume thus more effective communication.

6. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Prokaryotic Cells Bacterial cells are small, consisting of cytoplasm surrounded by a plasma membrane enclosed within a rigid cell wall of peptidoglycan (carbohydrate matrix crosslinked by short polypeptide units)  Categorized by cell wall structure: - Gram Positive - Thick, single-layered cell wall. Gram Negative - Multilayered cell wall (less peptidoglycan)  Many propelled by flagellum (flagella).  Lack internal organization.

8. Eukaryotic Cells Interior of eukaryotic cells contain numerous membrane-bound structures (organelles) that close off compartments to allow multiple simultaneous biochemical processes.  Vesicles - Storage and Transport (Plants and Animals)  Nucleus – Chromosomes (DNA)  Cytoskeleton - Internal Structure  Central Vacuole - Storage (Plants Only)

11. Nucleus Largest organelle: repository of genetic info. DNA is divided into chromosomes found in nucleus (chromatin) Nucleolus in center: synthesizes rRNA Nuclear envelope made of two phospholipid bilayers Nuclear pores in envelope filled with proteins allow passage of two types of molecules

13. Endoplasmic Reticulum Internal membrane composed of phospholipid bilayer and embedded proteins.  Weaves through cell, creating series of cisternal channels between its folds (cisternae) Rough ER - Surface regions covered with ribosomes.  Synthesizes proteins for export. Smooth ER - Membrane has few embedded ribosomes, and is embedded with enzymes for lipid synthesis, carbohydrate synthesis

15. Golgi Apparatus Collection of interconnected flattened stacks of membranes (Golgi bodies). Each membrane is called a cisternae.  Function in collection, packaging, and distribution of molecules synthesized in one place, and utilized in another place within the cell. - Cis face - Receiving end - Trans face - Discharging end

17. Vesicles Lysosomes - Membrane-bound digestive vesicles that arise from Golgi apparatus.  Contain degrading enzymes. - Break down old organelles and other structures and recycles them Microbodies - Bear enzymes for metabolism  Glyoxysome - Convert fat into carbohydrates  Peroxisome – Detoxify (those of kidneys and liver contain degrading enzyme catalase to detoxify hydrogen peroxide) metabolic waste, drugs, etc.

18. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Ribosomes Ribosomes are site of protein synthesis.  Made up of rRNA bound within complex of several dozen different proteins.  Composed of two subunits (large RNA and smaller ribosomal protein) - Join to form functional ribosome only when they attach to messenger RNA.  Assembled in nucleolus within the nucleus.

19. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Organelles With DNA Mitochondria  Bound by smooth outer membrane and an inner membrane folded into cristae.  Contain own DNA.

21. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Organelles With DNA Chloroplasts  Contain photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll that gives most plants their green color.  Double membrane  Grana - Stacked membranes internal to inner membrane. - Contain disk-shaped Thylakoids which also contain light-capturing pigments on surface Stroma – fluid surrounding grana

23. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Organelles With DNA Centrioles - Barrel-shaped organelles usually located near nuclear membrane.  Help assemble microtubules.  Some appear to contain DNA.

24. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Cytoskeleton Network of protein fibers supports cell shape.  Individual fibers formed by polymerization. - Actin Filaments – cell movement and formation of cellular extensions - Microtubules – cell movement and moving material within cell - Intermediate Filaments – line organs and body cavities

25. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies

26. Cell Movement Some cells crawl via a pseudopod. Moving Material Within the Cell  Short Distances – ER and Golgi Apparatus  Long Distances - Molecular Motors - Vesicle - Microtubule

27. Cell Movement Many eukaryotic cells contain flagellum consisting of a circle of nine microtubule pairs surrounding two central microtubules: “9+2 Structure” Flagella undulates with the help of flagella motor protein dynein. Cilia: short cellular projections often organized in rows that carry out a multitude of functions Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies

29. Plant Cells Central Vacuole - Functions as storage center and helps increase surface-to-volume ratio by stretching (swelling) cell Cell Walls Chloroplasts Plastids: organelle for photosynthesis and starch storage -Choroplasts -Leucoplasts -Amyloplasts

30. Raven - Johnson - Biology: 6th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies Endosymbiosis Theory of endosymbiosis proposes some eukaryotic organelles evolved by symbiosis.  One species of prokaryote was engulfed and lived inside another.
