Download Cell Structure and Function

 The
History of Cell Biology
 Introduction to Cells
 Cell Organelles and Features
 Unique Features of Plant Cells
 The
cell is the smallest unit that can carry
on all of the process of life.
 In complex organisms it is the basis of
the organizational structure.
 Cells > Tissues > Organs > Organ System
> Organism
 Robert
Hooke- was a scientist in the 17 th
century who contributed in the fields of
biology, physics and astronomy.
 Studied objects in nature using a light
microscope.
 Looked at a thin slice of cork from a cork
oak tree. It was made up of many tiny
little boxes which reminded him of
cubicles or cells where monks live.
 Anton
van Leeuwenhoek- a Dutch Trader
and a lens grinder. Was able to make
microscopes that had 10 x the
magnification of Hooke’s microscope.
 The first person to observe living cells.
 Looked at alga underneath a microscope.
 Three
Essential Parts
• All living organisms are composed of
one or more cells.
• Cells are the basic units of structure
and function in an organism.
• Cells come only from the reproduction
of existing cells.
 The
Cell Theory and its three parts.
 Robert Hooke and his contributions.
 Anton van Leeuwenhoek and his
contributions.
 The light microscope and the role it
played.

 Cell
Diversity
 Basic Parts of a Cell
 Two Basic Types of Cells
 Cellular Organization
 Cell
Shape-different cell shapes reflect
the different functions of cells.
 Cell
Size-Some cells can be 2 m long
while some cells are only 10 to 50
micrometers.
 Plasma
membrane-covers a cell’s surface
and acts as a barrier between the inside
and the outside of a cell.
 Cytoplasm-the region of the cell that is
within the plasma membrane and that
includes the fluid, the cytoskeleton, and
all of the organelles except the nucleus.
 Control Center-area of the cell that
carries DNA that codes for the cells
actions.
 Prokaryotes-organisms
that lack a
membrane bound nucleus and
membrane bound organelles.
 Eukaryotes-organisms
made up of one or
more cells that have a nucleus and
membrane-bound organelles.
 Colonies-a
collection of genetically
identical cells that live together in a
connected group. (Not Multicellular)
 True
Multicellularity-A group of similar
cells working together to carry out a
specific function.
 The
three basic parts of a cell.
 Two
types of cells.
 Colonies
vs. True Multicellularity
