1. Cells The basic unit of living things

2. Cellular Organelles Structures Cell Membrane Endoplasmic Reticulum Mitochondria Ribosomes Nucleus Golgi Apparatus or Body Lysosome Vacuole Cell Wall Chloroplast Functions Regulate what enters and exits the cell Where proteins are made and transported around the cell Converts food into energy Synthesizes or makes proteins Contains the DNA with the genetic blueprint to direct all the cell’s activities Packages and transports proteins Stores and digest cellular waste Stores water, food and waste Rigid layer surrounding and supporting a plant cell the givens a box-like shape Captures energy from sunlight and uses it to produce food for a plant cell

3. Cross Section of a Plant Cell Function of a plant cell is to produce it’s own food to carry the other functions of living things: grow, reproduce, move, synthesize

4. Cross Section of an Animal Cell The function of an animal is to convert food into energy to carry out life processes: grow, reproduce, synthesize, move.

5. Cell Theory and the Scientists Who Helped Shape It

6. The Cell The smallest unit that can perform all life processes

7. Scientists and the Cell Theory

8. Anton van Leeuwenhoek Born: October 24, 1632 Died: August 30, 1723 He is known as the “Father of Microscopy.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anton_van_Leeuwenhoek

9. Anton van Leeuwenhoek Discoveries: - 1673: He looked at pond scum under the microscope and discovered small organisms he called animalcules or little animals (Protists) - 1676: discovered bacteria http://www.kent.k12.wa.us/staff/TimLynch/sci_class/c hap09/lesson_protista/Protista_Lesson.html#Algae

10. Robert Hooke Born: July 18, 1635 Died: March 3, 1703 Wrote and published “Micrographia” Known as the “English Father of Microscopy” http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/PictDisplay/Hooke.html

11. Robert Hooke Contributions: - He observed pieces of cork from the bark of a cork tree under the microscope. - His observations led him to coin the word “cell.” - “Cell”- means little rooms in Latin - He compared the small boxes to the small rooms that monks lived in. http://www.learner.org/channel/courses/essential/life/s ession1/closer1.html

12. Matthias Schleiden Born: April 5, 1804 Died: June 23, 1881 German botanist Discovered that all plants were made of cells Contributed to the creation of the cell theory http://www.britannica.com/eb/article- 9066147/Mathias-Jacob-Schleiden

13. Theodor Schwann Born: December 7, 1810 Died: January 11, 1882 German zoologist Concluded that all animals are made of cells. Contributed to the creation of the cell theory http://www.nndb.com/people/357/000096069/

14. Rudolph Virchow Born: October 13, 1821 Died: September 5, 1902 German pathologist He is known as the “Father of Pathology.” Discovered that all living cells come only from other living cells. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Rudolf_Virchow.jpg

15. The Cell Theory Major Contributors: Matthias Schleiden Theodor Schwann Rudolph Virchow

16. The Cell Theory 1.All living things are made of cells. 2.Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things. 3.Living cells come only from other living cells.
