1
Cell Structure and Function
3
Before 1600’s fiber/tissue = basic unit of life Observed cork cells Coined the term “cell”
4
Made improvements to the microscope First to see living cells “animalcules” unicellular organisms
5
3. Mathias Schleiden (1838)4. Theodor Schwann (1838) Plants- made of cells Animals- made of cells
6
Cells come from other cells
7
1. All living things are made of cells 2. All cells come from preexisting cells 3. Cells are the basic units of structure and function Possible b/c of development of the microscope Involved many of scientists over hundreds of years.
13
Prokaryote vs. Eukaryote
14
ProkaryoteEukaryote No Nucleus No organelles Simple structure Small, unicellular Bacteria Nucleus Membrane bound organelles Complex structures Animals, plants, fungi, protists
17
Lysosome Leucoplasts Chromoplasts Mitochondria Chloroplast Cytoskeleton Centrioles Cilia Flagella Plasma Membrane Cell Wall Nucleus Cytoplasm Ribosomes Rough ER Smooth ER Golgi Body Vacuole
18
Phospholipid bilayer embedded with protein “Fluid Mosaic” theory Regulates movement of molecules into or out of the cell
19
Rigid structure outside of the plasma membrane Protects and supports cell Plants, fungi, bacteria Made of cellulose
20
Control center for the cell Chromatin DNA “blueprint” for cell’s proteins Nucleolus Makes ribisomes
21
Liquid inside the cell Water/nutrients Contains organelles
23
Site of protein synthesis
24
Produces and transports molecules
25
Stores, modifies and packages proteins, hormones etc. Post office of the cell
26
Stores food, waste, sugar, water etc. Storage center of the cell
27
Digests food molecules or worn-out cell parts
28
Store starch (in plants)
29
Contain pigments (in plants)
31
“Powerhouse of the cell” Site of cellular respiration
32
Site of photosynthesis
34
Internal framework of the cell Microtubules- provide support Microfilaments- enable cells to move (contractile proteins)
35
Aid in the division of animal cells
37
Cilia-short- fibers Flagella- long fibers
38
Molecules constantly enter and leave the cell
39
Requires no energy Examples: Diffusion and Osmosis Facilitated Diffusion Transport proteins in membrane moves sugar, amino acids etc Follows concentration gradient
41
Movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentration Passive transport- requires no energy
42
Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
43
Concentration of solutes are equal inside and outside of the cell.
44
Solution outside the cell has a higher concentration of solutes than the cell. Less water inside Solution outside the cell has a lower concentration of solutes than the cell. More water inside
46
Wilting = loss of turgor pressure
47
PlasmolysisCytolysis Shrivel Burst
48
Carrier proteins – transport molecules Low concentration to High concentration Uses energy
49
“into” the cell Engulfs material by enclosing it in membrane Forms a vacuole within the cell
50
Expelling large amounts of material from the cell
