CH. 7Cell Structure and Function A. History -before 1600 ’s - fiber / tissue thought to be the basic unit of life -spontaneous generation 1.Robert Hooke (1665) - observed cork cells I.The Cell Theory:
3
Robert Hooke (1665) - Coined term ‘Cell’

2.Van Leeuwenhoek (1683) - first to see living cells

3.Mathias Schleiden (1838) -plants made of cells

4.Theodor Schwann 4.Theodor Schwann (1838) -animals made of cells

5.Rudolph Virchow 5.Rudolph Virchow (1855) -cells come from other cells

B.The Cell Theory (3 parts): 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. -developed over several hundred years involving many scientists -followed the development of the microscope

Research Method: Light Microscopy TECHNIQUERESULTS Brightfield (unstained specimen). Passes light directly through specimen. Unless cell is naturally pigmented or artificially stained, image has little contrast. [Parts (a)–(d) show a human cheek epithelial cell.] (a) Brightfield (stained specimen). Staining with various dyes enhances contrast, but most staining procedures require that cells be fixed (preserved). (b) Phase-contrast. Enhances contrast in unstained cells by amplifying variations in density within specimen; especially useful for examining living, unpigmented cells. (c) 50 µm
11
Differential-interference-contrast (Nomarski). Like phase-contrast microscopy, it uses optical modifications to exaggerate differences in density, making the image appear almost 3D. Fluorescence. Shows the locations of specific molecules in the cell by tagging the molecules with fluorescent dyes or antibodies. These fluorescent substances absorb ultraviolet radiation and emit visible light, as shown here in a cell from an artery. Confocal. Uses lasers and special optics for “optical sectioning” of fluorescently-stained specimens. Only a single plane of focus is illuminated; out-of-focus fluorescence above and below the plane is subtracted by a computer. A sharp image results, as seen in stained nervous tissue (top), where nerve cells are green, support cells are red, and regions of overlap are yellow. A standard fluorescence micrograph (bottom) of this relatively thick tissue is blurry. 50 µm (d) (e) (f)

13
Research Method: Electron Microscopy TECHNIQUERESULTS Scanning electron micro- scopy (SEM). Micrographs taken with a scanning electron micro- scope show a 3D image of the surface of a specimen. This SEM shows the surface of a cell from a rabbit trachea (windpipe) covered with motile organelles called cilia. Beating of the cilia helps move inhaled debris upward toward the throat. (a) Transmission electron micro- scopy (TEM). A transmission electron microscope profiles a thin section of a specimen. Here we see a section through a tracheal cell, revealing its ultrastructure. In preparing the TEM, some cilia were cut along their lengths, creating longitudinal sections, while other cilia were cut straight across, creating cross sections. (b) Cilia 1 µm Longitudinal section of cilium Cross section of cilium 1 µm

Everything that lives is made of cells.

C.Two Basic Cell Types: 1.Prokaryotes: -no nucleus nor organelles -simple internal structure -very small, primitive, unicellular -bacteria
16
ProkaryoteProkaryote Bacteria Cell
17
2.Eukaryotes: -have a nucleus and membrane- bound organelles -complex internal structure -animals, plants, fungi, protists
18
EukaryoteEukaryote Animal Cell
19
EukaryoteEukaryote Plant Cell

II.Cell Structure A.Plasma membrane: - bilayer of phospholipids embedded with proteins - “fluid mosaic” theory
21
-holds cell together -regulates movement of molecules into or out of the cell
22
Cell Wall -rigid, layered structure on the outside of cells that protects and supports cell -in plants, fungi, and bacteria -made of cellulose (in plants)
23
Cell Wall
24
B.Nucleus: -control center of the cell -contains chromatin (DNA “blueprint” for cell’s proteins) -Nucleolus: makes ribosomes
25
Organelles Cytoplasm -liquid interior of the cell -mostly water with dissolved substances (O 2,CO 2, sugar, etc.) -contains organelles C.Cytoplasm
26
D.Assembly, Storage, and Transport 1.Ribosomes: - site of protein synthesis
27
2.Endoplasmic Reticulum: - produces and transports molecules
28
3.Golgi Body: -store, modify, and package proteins, hormones, etc.
29
Processing a Protein from Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum to Golgi Body to a Secretory Vesicle
30
- stores food, waste, sugar, water, etc. 4.Vacuole:
31
5.Lysosome: -digest food molecules or worn-out cell parts
32
6.Leucoplasts: -store starch (in plants) leucoplast
33
7.Chromoplasts: -contain colorful pigments (in plants) chromoplasts

41
III.Cellular Transport -molecules constantly enter and leave the cell
42
A.Diffusion Crystal of dye placed in water Diffusion of dye and water molecules Equilibrium reached -movement of molecules from high concentration to low conc. - requires no cell energy (passive)
43
B.Osmosis: -diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane Concentrated sugar solution (water less concentrated) Diluted sugar solution (water more concentrated) Sugar molecules Selectively permeable membrane Movement of water
44
C.Effects of Osmosis 1.Isotonic Solution -concentration of solutes the same on inside and outside of cell Animal Cell Plant Cell
45
2.Hypotonic Solution -solution outside of cell contains a lower conc. of solutes than the cell (more water) Animal Cell Plant Cell

c)Contractile Vacuoles: -“pump” water out of cells of ameba, paramecium, etc. living in a hypotonic solution Paramecium
51
3.Hypertonic Solution -solution outside of cell contains a higher conc. of solutes than the cell (less water) Animal Cell Plant Cell
52
a) Plasmolysis: -loss of cytoplasm (shrinking of the cell)
53
b) Wilting: - loss of turgor in plant cells
54
D.Passive vs. Active Transport 1.Passive Transport: - requires no cell energy a)Diffusion and Osmosis b) Facilitated Diffusion: - transport proteins in membrane move sugar, amino acids, etc. - follows concentration gradient
55
b) Facilitated Diffusion:

2.Active Transport: - requires cell energy a)Carrier proteins - transport molecules from low conc. to high conc. using cell energy
57
Active Transport:
58
b)Endocytosis:
59
-movement of large amounts of material into a cell by engulfing and enclosing within a membrane - forms a vacuole within cell
