Chapter 7-1 Life is Cellular
2
Early Microscopes Robert Hooke -1665 looked at a thin slice of cork, from the cork oak tree Coined the term “cells”; looked like the rooms of a monastery (many empty boxes)
3
Anton van Leeuwenhoek looked at pond water he was amazed by tiny living organisms
4
Developing the Cell Theory Matthias Schleiden- 1838 Concluded that plants were made of cells
5
Theodor Schwann Concluded that animals were made of cells - 1839
6
Rudolf Virchow - 1858 Concluded that cells must come from dividing cells
7
Cell Theory: 1) All living things are composed of cells 2) Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things 3) New cells are produced from existing cells.
8
Name of Instrument: Compound Light Microscopes Magnify 1500x (what we’ll use!) Use a series of lenses to magnify objects in steps. Today researchers tag molecules with fluorescence and follow their path through the cell. Exploring the cell – Microscopes (what we skipped in Chapter 1)
9
ProkaryotesEukaryotes Find us!!
10
Electron Microscopes – 150,000x magnification Transmission Electron Microscopes (TEM) – explore cell structures and large proteins Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEM) – scan of surface of specimen; 3D images
11
Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes All cells: Have a plasma membrane Contain DNA
12
Two broad categories: Eukaryotes - contain nucleus; “eu” means true Prokaryotes- no nucleus; “pro” means before
13
Eukaryotes HAVE NUCLEUS Larger, more complex Plants, animals, fungi, and protists
14
Prokaryotes NO NUCLEUS Smaller, simpler Bacteria
15
ProkaryotesCommon to BothEukaryotes pro=__________ generally smaller less complicated no Ex: Bacteria contain __________ Eu= ___________ Generally larger Contain membrane bound organelles (“little organs”) Ex: beforetrue Membrane bound organelles Plants, animals, fungi, and protists DNA Cell membrane
