  1. Ch. 7 – Cells

  2. I. Cells • A. What is a cell? • 1. Cell – the smallest unit of matter that can carry on all the processes of life

  3. I. Cells • B. Who first discovered the cell? • 1. Anton van Leeuwenhoek– first to observe cells • 2. Robert Hooke– used the light microscope to observe cork • a. First person to call the shapes inside of organisms “cells”

  4. I. Cells • 3. Rudolph Virchow – studied cell reproduction and discovered that all cells come from other pre-existing cells. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fg3Q-hbSsI

  5. I. Cells • 4. Mathias Schleiden – studied plants and discovered that all plants are made of cells • 5. Theodor Schwann – studied animals and discovered that all animals are made of cells

  6. I. Cells • C. What is the cell theory? • 1. The cell theorywas developed by theories of Hooke, Virchow, Schleiden, and Schwann. • a. The cell is the basic unit of organization for organisms. • b. All organisms are made of one or more cells. • c. All cells come from other pre-existing cells.

  7. I. Cells • 2. With better microscopes, scientists observed that cells contained specialized structures. • a. Organelles – cells parts that perform a specific jobor functionfor the cell

  8. I. Cells • D. Cell Diversity! • 1. Your body alone contains 200 different cell types! • 2. CellsOrganisms can be classified by the number of • cellsthey are made up of. • a. Unicellular Organism – single celledorganism • Example: bacteria, yeast • b. Multicellular Organism – organism made up of many cells • Example: plants, animals

  9. I. Cells • E. How are cells classified based upon the presence/absence of organelles? • 1. Eukaryotic Cells – cells with a membrane-bound nucleus and organelles • a. Examples: plant and animal cells 1. Nucleus 2. Nucleolus 3. Chromatin 4. Cell membrane 5. Organelles

  10. I. Cells • 2. Prokaryotic Cells – cells with no membrane-bound nucleus or organelles(except ribosomes) • a. Examples: bacteria 3. Cell membrane 2. DNA 1. Ribosomes 4. Cell wall

  19. III. Cell Control • Nuclear Envelope/Membrane • Function: • Controls what enters/exits the nucleus • Fact: • Surrounds the nucleus • Found in: • Eukaryotes

  20. IV. Cell Assembly • Cytoplasm • Function: • Suspends/holds organelles • Site of chemical reactions • Fact: • Contains clear gel-like fluid called cytosol • Found in: • Eukaryotes • Prokaryotes

  21. IV. Cell Assembly • Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) • Function: • Produces proteins • Fact: • Helps move molecules throughout the cell • Found in: • Eukaryotes

  22. IV. Cell Assembly • Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) • Function: • Produces lipids (steroids) • Detoxifies poisons • Fact: • Helps move molecules throughout the cell • Found in: • Eukaryotes

  23. IV. Cell Assembly • Golgi Apparatus • Function: • Processes, packs, and secretes proteins and lipids • Fact: • Works closely with ER • Flattened stack of membranes • Found in: • Eukaryotes Golgi

  24. IV. Cell Assembly • Vacuole • Function: • Stores food, water, waste, proteins, carbs • Fact: • Helps maintain homeostasis • Found in: • Eukaryotes (plants have a LARGE vacuole) Vacuole

  25. IV. Cell Assembly • Lysosomes • Function: • Uses enzymes to digest old organelles and foreign objects (bacteria, viruses) • Fact: • “Suicide sacs” • Found in: • Eukaryotes Lysosome

  26. IV. Cell Assembly • Ever wonder how a tadpole gets rid of its tail and grows legs???? • It’s lysosomes digest the cells in the tail, and these molecules are released to build different cells, like legs!

  27. V. Energy Transformers • Chloroplast • Function: • Capture light (solar energy) and convert it to chemical energy during photosynthesis • Fact: • Glucose is the sugar made • Found in: • Eukaryotes (plants) Chloroplast

  32. VII. Levels of Organization • A. Organization: Organelles  Cells  Tissues  Organs  Organ systems Organisms

  33. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • A. A cell’s survival depends on the cell’s ability to maintain the necessary conditions inside itself. • 1. Maintaining these constant internal conditions is called homeostasis.

  34. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • B. Cell Membrane– flexible boundary between the cell and its outside environment • 1. Allows water and nutrients to enter the cell and wastes to leave the cell. Cell Membrane Water

  35. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • 2. Selectively Permeable– allowing some materials to pass while keeping others out • a. Example: A spaghetti strainer allows water, but not spaghetti to pass through

  36. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • C. What is the cell membrane made up of? • 1. Phospholipids – diglyceride with a phosphate group attached

  37. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • a. Phospholipid Bilayer– the cell membrane is TWO layers thick

  38. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • b. Phospholipids have a polar “head” and nonpolar“tail”. • - Polar “heads” are attracted to water, sugars, and proteins.

  39. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • - Non-polar “tails” repelwater, sugars, and proteins. • - Resulting in a selectively permeablemembrane.

  40. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • 2. Proteins are embedded in the cell membrane to recognize substances that can enter and exit the cell.

  41. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • 3. Cholesterol stabilizes the membrane by preventing lipids from sticking together.

  42. VIII. THE CELL MEMBRANE • D. Fluid Mosaic Model- describes how phospholipids can move around like a fluid and the proteins make a pattern

  43. VIIII. Cell Transport • A. What types of materials need to cross the cells membrane? Water, nutrients, oxygen, waste • B. In cells, particles always move to reach equal concentrations. • 1. Concentration Gradient– unequal distribution of particles

  44. VIIII. Cell Transport • C. Types of Transport • 1. Passive Transport– movement of any substance across a membrane WITHOUT the use of chemical energy. • a. Occurs from high to low concentration, with the concentration gradient.

  45. VIIII. Cell Transport • b. Types of Passive Transport • - Diffusion– movement of molecules across a selectively permeable membrane; occurs from high to low concentration, with the concentration gradient.

  46. VIIII. Cell Transport • - Example: Oxygen diffuses into the bloodstream because of a high pressure in the lungs.

  47. VIIII. Cell Transport • - Osmosis– movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane; occurs from high to low concentration, with the concentration gradient.

  48. VIIII. Cell Transport • c. How are larger and strongly charged molecules, such as glucose, able to pass through the cell membrane more quickly than they should? • - Facilitateddiffusion – passive transport of large particles across a membrane with the help of proteins; occurs from a high to low concentration, with the concentration gradient • - Example: Sugars, Amino Acids Glucose molecules High Concentration Cell Membrane Low Concentration Protein channel

  49. VIIII. Cell Transport

  50. VIIII. Cell Transport • 2. Types of Solution – How does the water “know” which way to move? • a. Hypertonic Solution – (high solute concentration) more wateron the inside of the cell than the outside of the cell. • - Water moves OUT of the cell. • - Size of the cell = shrinks (plasmolysis) Over time Cell H2O + NaCl Solution
