2
The structures and functions of the cell
3
Cell Theory Term “cell” was coined in 1665 by Robert Hooke He looked at a slice of dried cork
4
CELL THEORY 1.Cells are the smallest “living” unit in an organisms. 2.All living things are comprised of cells. 3.Cells come from previously existing cells
5
Cell Diversity Lots of shapes and sizes
6
CELL TYPES PROKARYOTIC CELL NO NUCLEUS, MOST PRIMITIVE FORM OF LIFE
7
CELL TYPES EUKARYOTIC CELL DNA ORGANIZED IN A NUCLEUS, MORE COMPLEX THAN PROKARYOTIC CELLS
8
Typical Cell
9
Cell Membrane Outer boundary –Both Physical and Chemical Comprised of two layers of lipid (fat) –Outer and inner layers Proteins –Proteins give the cell its unique “personality” or function
10
Function of Membrane Proteins 1.Transport (in and out of cell) 2.Receptors 3.Cell adhesion 4.Cell recognition
11
Cell Membrane
12
WATER IN THE CELL Animation
13
CELL MEMBRANE Passive transport Active transport Animation Animation 2
14
BULK TRANSPORT endocytosis exocytosis Animation
15
Cytoplasm Is comprised of: 1.Cytosol 2.Organelles
16
Organelles 1.Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) A network of membrane-bound tunnels throughout the cytoplasm
17
Two Types of ER 1.Rough ER (rER) 2.Smooth ER (sER) Names based on appearance
18
ER Rough ER Smooth ER
19
rER Has particles attached to outside of membrane
20
sER sER doesn’t have ribosomes attached. sER function – lipid (fat) synthesis Animation
21
Endoplasmic reticulum Like an interstate highway
22
Ribosomes These particles attached to rER are ribosomes. Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis within every cell.
23
Ribosomes Animation
24
Ribosomes Like an Assembly line
25
Golgi Apparatus Flattened membranes Involved in packaging and secretion of proteins
26
Golgi Apparatus Animation
27
Golgi Apparatus Like a Post office Which Packages And sorts mail
28
Lysosomes DIGEST SUGARS DIGEST BACTERIA DIGEST CELL PARTS DIGEST CELL Animation
29
LYSOSOMES
30
Mitochondria Bean shaped Outer and inner membranes
31
Mitochondria The mitochondria are the site where most of the cell’s ATP is generated, when organic compounds are broken down to carbon dioxide and water, using oxygen Types Animation
32
Mitochondria BATTERY
33
Plant Cell Organelles Plants have three special structures not found in animals: the chloroplast, the cell wall, and the central vacuole.
34
PLANT CELL ORGANELLES
35
CHLOROPLAST The site of photosynthesis, the process of converting carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen using sunlight. Most life depends on photosynthesis, directly or indirectly. It uses the green pigment chlorophyll to capture the energy from light Animation
36
Chloroplast Like a solar panel. Uses sunlight to make Something (electricity)
37
VACUOLE USED AS A LARGE STORAGE AREA USUALLY FOR WATER IN PLANTS Animation
38
VACUOLE STORAGE
39
CELL WALL
41
SUPPORT
42
Nucleus Control center of cell Contains DNA in chromosomes Genetic repository for ~ 35,000 genes Genes control the synthesis of proteins in each cell
43
Nucleus
44
Replication of DNA
45
NUCLEUS - COMPUTER
46
Organelles. Putting it all together
