Presentation Transcript

  1. THE CELL Structure • Cells are mainly formed of water, but present in their structure are proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids (DNA). • Cell membrane • Cell wall • Nucleus

  2. THE CELL Cell Membrane • Separates the parts inside the cell from the outside • Support for the cytoskeleton, shape for the cell • Substances pass through it • Cell communication

  3. THE CELL Cell Wall • Strength and rigidity • Protection • Retains water • It is different between eukaryotes and prokaryotes and plants and fungi

  4. THE CELL Workshop • Make a scheme where you compare all the different types of cells there are. • List the differences between the cell wall and the cell membrane HOMEWORK: Bring information about the cell organelles and its functions. In groups: classify the organelles of the cell according to the processes related to their functions.

  5. ANIMAL CELL THE CELL http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/animals/cell/

  6. PLANT CELL THE CELL http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/plants/cell/

  7. THE CELL Organelles • In groups: • Each member of the group brings information of the cell’s organelles and their function. • Discuss about how those organelles and structures influence the function of the cells. Write your conclusions. • Make a scheme or model of a plant and animal cell indicating all its organelles and functions.

  8. THE CELL - Transport Cell Membrane  Phospholipids have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions: nonpolar tails (hydrophobic), polar heads (hydrophilic)

  9. THE CELL - Transport Cell Membrane  It also has proteins in the membrane, which function is regulate the movement of some substances

  10. THE CELL - Transport PASSIVE TRANSPORT Release wastes and take in some substances Cell membrane: acts as selectively permeable screen. Movement of molecules between areas of different concentrations

  11. THE CELL - Transport PASSIVE TRANSPORT: no energy is needed • Osmosis: movement of WATER through a semipermeabe membrane from areas of lower concentrations to areas of higher concentrations. • Diffusion: movement of molecules -like oxygen- from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration.

  12. THE CELL - Transport Solutions can be: Isotonic: same concentrations, there is an equilibrium Hypotonic: lower concentrations of dissolved solutes on the outside, therefore water moves into the cell Hypertonic: higher concentrations of dissolved solutes on the outside, therefore water moves out of the cell

  13. THE CELL - Transport

  14. THE CELL - Transport Active Transport: energy is needed Allows the movement of molecules from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. THIS REQUIRES ENERGY!!  sodium - potassium pump Endocytosis: membrane surrounds the molecule that is going to be taken inside… Exocytosis: membrane surrounds the molecule that is going to be pushed outside…

  15. THE CELL Presentations: PHOTOSYNTHESIS, RESPIRATION, FERMENTATION Instructions: • Explain the process • Prepare an activity related to the topic
