1 Chapter 6: A Tour of the Cell

2 The Beginning First Cells - 1665 First Living Cells - 1674 Hooke’s
Microscope First Cells Leeuwenhoek’s Microscope First Living Cells

3 Studying Cells Microscopes Light Electron Cell Fractionation

4 The Light Microscope Light is transmitted through the specimen
Magnified and focused using lenses Maximum magnification is around 1000X Sample can be stained to see various organelles and internal structures Can look at preserved or living specimens

5 The Light Microscope Light is transmitted through the specimen
Magnified and focused using lenses Maximum magnification is around 1000X Sample can be stained to see various organelles and internal structures Can view preserved or living specimens

6 Micrograph from Light Microscope
Euglena, LM 1000X

7 Resolution

8 The Electron Microscope
Two types: Scanning (SEM) and Transmission (TEM) Electrons are passed through the specimen (TEM) or bounce off the surface (SEM) Maximum magnification is around 100,000X High resolution All specimens MUST BE preserved – no living cells

Fig. 6-5 TECHNIQUE Homogenization Tissue cells Homogenate Centrifugation Differential centrifugation Centrifuged at 1,000 g (1,000 times the force of gravity) for 10 min Supernatant poured into next tube 20,000 g 20 min 80,000 g 60 min Pellet rich in nuclei and cellular debris 150,000 g 3 hr Pellet rich in mitochondria (and chloro- plasts if cells are from a plant) Pellet rich in “microsomes” (pieces of plasma membranes and cells’ internal membranes) Pellet rich in ribosomes Cell Fractionation Technique used to separate organelles and major structures from one another Involves centrifugation Heavier components are pushed to the bottom of the test tube Can separate out using sequential centrifugations at increasing speeds

15 Cell Theory All organisms are made of cells All cells come from cells

16 Features of All Cells Plasma membrane - selective barrier
Cytoplasm – semifluid substance containing organelles and other components DNA – genetic information Ribosomes – protein making structures

17 Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes
DNA Location: Proks: nucleoid region Euks: nucleus Organelles Proks: no true organelles (no internal membranes) Euks: membrane-bound organelles Size Proks: smaller Euks: larger

18 Nucleoid region Nucleus Organelles Eukaryotic cell Prokaryotic cell
Colorized TEM 15,000 Eukaryotic cell Organelles
