9. The History of the Cell The Cell The basic unit of an organism
Discovery made possible by the invention of the microscope

10. Microscopes and Cells 1600’s.
Anton van Leeuwenhoek first described living cells as seen through a simple microscope.

11. Microscopes and Cells
Robert Hooke used the first compound microscope to view thinly sliced cork cells.
Compound scopes use a series of lenses to magnify in steps.
Hooke was the first to use the term “cell”.

12. Microscopes and Cells 1830’s.
Mathias Schleiden identified the first plant cells and concluded that all plants
made of cells.
- Thomas Schwann made the same conclusion about animal cells.

17. COMMON CELL TRAITS
A cell is the smallest unit that is capable of performing life functions.

18. COMPARING CELLS
The size & shape of a cell relates to its function. (job it does)

19. There are two cell types: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells.
Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus.
Prokaryotic cells do not have membrane bound organelles.

20. Two Basic Cell Types Prokaryote Lacks internal compartments.
No true nucleus.
Most are single-celled (unicellular) organisms.
Examples: bacteria

21. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and most internal structures of eukaryotic cells.
All cells share certain characteristics.
Cells tend to be microscopic.
All cells are enclosed by a membrane.
All cells are filled with cytoplasm.

22. Prokaryote
Were here first & for billions of years the only living thing on Earth
Reproduces only through asexual methods

23. Prokaryotic Cells (proh KAYR ee yah tihk)
cells without membrane-bound structures
EX: bacteria

26. Eukaryotic Cells (yew KAYR ee yah tihk)
cells with membrane-bound structures
EX: animals, plants, fungi and protists

27. The Parts of The Eukaryotic Cell Boundaries
Plasma Membrane
-- Serves as a boundary between the cell and its external environment.
-- Allows materials to pass in and out of the cell.

28. Animal Cell

29. Several organelles are involved in making and processing proteins.
The nucleus stores genetic information.

30. The Parts of The Eukaryotic Cell: Controls
Nucleus
Regulates cell function.
Surrounded by a double-layered membrane (nuclear enveloped) with large pores that allow materials to pass in and out of the nucleus.
Contains chromatin – long tangles of DNA.
Left cell nucleus is undergoing mitosis-nucleus has disintegated to prepare for division

31. Controls
Nucleolus
Found in the nucleus and responsible for ribosome production. Ribosomes are the sites of protein production.

32. The Parts of The Eukaryotic Cell: Assembly
Cytoplasm
The jelly-like
material that
surrounds
the
organelles.

33. CELL WALL protects the cell gives shape is made of cellulose
A cell wall is found in plants, algae, fungi, & most bacteria.

34. CELL MEMBRANE Outer covering, protective layer around ALL cells
For cells with cell walls,the cell membrane is inside the cell wall
Allows food, oxygen, & water into the cell & waste products out of the cell.

35. NUCLEAR MEMBRANE separates nucleus from cytoplasm
controls movement of materials in & out of nucleus

36. NUCLEOLUS
Aka “little nucleus”
Found in the nucleus

37. CHROMATIN contains genetic code that controls cell
made of DNA & proteins

38. The Parts of The Eukaryotic Cell: Transport
Endoplasmic reticulum
Folded membrane that acts as the cells delivery system
Smooth E.R. contains enzymes for lipid synthesis
Rough E.R. is studded with ribosomes for protein synthesis.

39. Several organelles are involved in making and processing proteins
Several organelles are involved in making and processing proteins. (continued)
Ribosomes link amino acids to form proteins.

40. Several organelles are involved in making and processing proteins..
Many processes occur in the endoplasmic reticulum.

41. Several organelles are involved in making and processing proteins.

43. Transport Golgi apparatus (or Golgi body) A series of flattened
sacs where newly
made lipids and
proteins from the
E.R. are repackaged
and shipped to the
plasma membrane.

44. The Parts of The Eukaryotic Cell: Storage
Vacuoles
A sac of fluid surrounded by a membrane used to store food, fluid, or waste products.

45. Other organelles have various functions.
Vacuoles are fluid-filled sacs that hold materials.

46. Storage Lysosomes Contain a digestive enzyme.
Can fuse with vacuoles to digest food, or can digest worn cell parts.
Also known as “suicide sacs” because they can also destroy the whole cell.

47. Other organelles have various functions.
Lysosomes contain enzymes to digest material.

48. Several organelles are involved in making and processing proteins..
Vesicles are membrane-bound sacs that hold materials.

Mitochondria supply energy to the cell.

50. The Parts of The Eukaryotic Cell: Energy Transformers
Mitochondria
Produce the energy for the cell.
Also known as the “powerhouse of the cell”.
Has a highly folded inner membrane (cristae).

51. 6) Energy Transformers Chloroplasts
-- Found in plant cells and some protists.
-- Transforms light energy into chemical energy which is stored in food molecules.
-- Contain chlorophyll – a green pigment that traps light energy and gives plants their green color.

52. The Parts of The Eukaryotic Cell: Support
Cytoskeleton
A network of thin, fibrous materials that act as a scaffold and support the organelles.
Microtubules – hollow filaments of protein.
Microfilaments – solid filaments of protein.

53. Cells have an internal structure.
The cytoskeleton has many functions.
supports and shapes cell
helps position and transport organelles
provides strength
assists in cell division
aids in cell movement

Short, numerous, hair-like projections from the plasma membrane.
Move with a coordinated beating action.

56. Locomotion Flagella Longer, less numerous projections from
the plasma membrane that
move with a whiplike action.

57. The Parts of The Eukaryotic Cell: Cell Division
Centrioles
made of protein.
play a role in the splitting of the cell into two cells.
found in animal and fungi cells.

58. Other organelles have various functions.
