  1. Organization of Life Chapter 2

  2. Two Types of Cells • Prokaryotic • Eukaryotic

  3. Prokaryotic • Do not have structures surrounded by membranes • Few internal structures • One-celled organisms, Bacteria

  4. Eukaryotic • Contain organelles surrounded by membranes • Most living organisms

  5. Cellular Organization • 1-Cell- basic unit of structure and function in living things. • 2-Tissue- group of cells that function together to carry out an activity.

  6. 3-Organ- group of two or more tissues that perform an activity together. • 4-Organ system- group of organs that work together to perform a major life function

  7. . • 5-Organism- an entire living thing that carries out all the basic life functions.

  8. The Discovery of the Cell

  9. Robert Hooke discovered and named cells in 1665 when he examined thin slices of cork with a compound microscope he designed.

  10. “Cells” got their name because they reminded Hooke of the small, boxy living quarters of monks.

  11. Perhaps inspired by Hooke, Anton van Leeuwenhoek took up microscopy and built more than 500 microscopes, grinding the lenses himself.

  12. This enabled him to discover and describe red blood cells and bacteria taken from scrapings off his teeth.

  13. Schleiden and Schwann • Schleiden used microscopes to observe plant cells. • Schwann observed animal cells under microscopes. • Schleiden and Schwann summarized their observations and conclusions into the cell theory.

  14. Virchow Approximately 20 years later Virchow saw that cells could not develop from anything except other cells.

  15. Cells The Basic Units of Life

  16. Objectives

  17. 1. Identify major cell organelles given a diagram. • 2. Distinguish between plant and animal cells given a diagram of a plant. • 3. Identify the cell organelle in which photosynthesis occurs.

  18. Cell Wall • Supports and protects plant cells. • Made of non-living cellulose. • Makes plants stiff.

  19. Is found on the outside of the cell. Allows materials to pass into and out of the cell. Protects the cell and supports it. Cell Membrane Gate of the cell

  20. Nucleus • The large oval structure. • Directs the activities of the cell like a “brain” • Contains the nucleolus and chromosomes. Control center

  21. Nuclear Membrane • Surrounds the nucleus and allows materials to pass into or out of the nucleus.

  22. Chromosomes/Chromatin • Thick, rodlike objects that direct the activities of the cell and passes on its traits to new cells.

  23. The round nucleolus is located inside the nucleus. It produces ribosomes and is responsible for making new and repairing cells. Nucleolus Ribosome factory

  24. Clear, thick, jelly-like substance in the cell between the nucleus and the cell membrane. Cytoplasm

  25. Endoplasmic Reticulum • Clear, tubular passageways that carry proteins from one part of the cell to another. It is the transportation system for the cell. Roadways

  26. Ribosomes • Where amino acids are assembled into proteins. Protein factory

  27. Mitochondria • Rod shaped structures that break down food and release energy. This energy will be used in the cell’s reactions. Power plants

  28. Vacuoles • Plant cells have very large vacuoles • Stores water and other materials

  29. Vacuoles/Animal Cells • Round water-filled sacs that store food and water for the cell. Storage units

  30. Lysosomes • Small, round structures that digest food and break down old cells. Cleanup Crew

  31. Golgi Apparatus • flattened membrane sacs that package cell material and ship them to other organelles or out of the cell. Post Office

  32. VESICLES • Storage centers for the cell

  33. Chloroplasts • Green, irregularly shaped structures that capture the energy of sunlight and produces food through the process of photosynthesis. Energy producers
