Goal #1: Cell Theory
Dutch fabric merchant. Amateur Scientist. Made the first microscope. 1600’s Anton Van Leeuwenhoek
Leeuwenhoek looked at: BloodPond WaterPlaque Results: He discovered microorganisms He was the first person to see a living cell
Before the microscope people believed diseases were caused by curses or supernatural spirits.
Robert Hooke • English Scientist • Museum Caretaker 1665
Thin slices of cork. He looked at:
Results: • Observed nonliving cells. • Came up with the name “cells”.
SchleidenLooked atPlant Cells & Parts Results: He made the statement… “All plants are made up of cells”.
Memory Trick: ”Matt Shleiden to a tree!”
Schwann looked at animal cells & parts Results: He made the statement… “All animals are made up of cells”.
Memory Trick: ”The Schwann is an animal!”
What he Looked at: Used the microscope to look at all kinds of cells. Results: Stated that all cells come from other cells
Cell Theory • All living things are made of cells. • Cells are the basic (smallest) units of structure of living things. • All cells come from other cells.
Goal #2: Prokaryotespro = beforekary = nut/kernel (nucleus)ote = type
Prokaryotic Cells Do not contain a nucleus or any membrane bound organelles Eukaryotic Cells Contain a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles Two Types of Cells
The first cells… • Prokaryotic cells are believed to be the first cells that existed. • It is believed that this occurred when genetic material (DNA) became lumped together and sealed into tiny packages – called cells. • Later on, prokaryotes would be “swallowed” by larger cells and would form the nucleus of the larger cells, known as eukaryotic cells. Don’t Write This!
Eukaryotic cells are 1 to 100 times bigger than prokaryotic cells.
The genetic material (DNA or RNA) floats around loose in the jelly-like cytoplasm The cell is held together by the cell membrane (like a water balloon) Genetic material Cytoplasm Cell Membrane Ribosomes
Prokaryotes are very small organisms made of 1 prokaryotic cell. • Ex) Bacteria • They are microscopic! (cannot be seen without the aid of a microscope)
Escheria coli Food poisoning
Streptoccus aureus Strep Throat
Staphylococcusaureus Staph Infection
Neisseria meningitidis Meningitis
Goal #3: Eukaryoteseu = truekary = nut/kernel (nucleus)ote = type
Eukaryotic cells – cells that have a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles • Plants • Animals • Fungi • Protists
Eukaryotic cells have… Organelles • Structures in eukaryotic cells that perform certain functions for the cell
Cell Membrane • Flexible outer covering of the cell. • Has tiny holes & gates to control what goes in or out of the cell.
Cytoplasm • Clear thick, jelly-like fluid. • Supports cell’s organelles • Fills up the space between the cell membrane and the nucleus. • It is constantly flowing.
Nucleus • Largest organelle in the cell. • The control center of the cell. • Contains the directions for making proteins. • Contains the genetic material
Chromatin • Stringy material spread throughout nucleus – uncoiled chromosomes • Consists of DNA bound to protein • Contains instructions for making protein
Chromosome • Wound up chromatin structures that contain DNA • Only present in cell during cell division
Protein Transport Chain • A cell’s job is to make protein • That protein is produced in the nucleus and shipped out to other cells
Nucleolus • Small round object found in the nucleus • Place where ribosomes are made.
Ribosomes • Small round structures found on ER and scattered throughout the cytoplasm • Place where protein is made.
NuclearEnvelope (Membrane) • Double-membrane layer around nucleus • Contains tiny pores • Allows materials to move in and out of the nucleus
EndoplasmicReticulum • Two types: • Smooth ER (no proteins on surface) • Rough ER (proteins on surface – like sprinkles!) • Tunnels in the cytoplasm. • The transport system used to get protein from one part of the cell to another.
Golgi Apparatus • Smooth, stack-like membranes. • Protein is sent here from the ER and is packaged for shipment out of the cell.
Other Organelles • Much more happens in a cell besides protein production and transport • Many other organelles are present and have their own function within the cell! Don’t Write This!
Mitochondria • Bean shaped. • Has 2 membranes • Place where sugar is broken down. • Supplies energy to the cell. • The “powerhouse” of the cell.
Centrioles • Tube made of many smaller “microtubules” • Assist during cell division – only present during division
Cilia & Flagella Cilia short hair-like projections from cell surface
Cilia & Flagella Flagella Long whip-like projections Both help the cell to move
Lysosomes • Small round structures filled with enzymes – found only in animal cells. • The “clean up crew”. • Dissolves old cell parts.
Cell Wall • Rigid, Strong outer covering of a plant cell. • Helps protect and support the cell. • Made of cellulose (fiber).
