Cell Organelles! First, what are cells? • Smallest living unit. • Most are microscopic. Discovery of cells • Robert Hooke (mid-1600s) – Observed sliver of cork – Saw “row of empty boxes” – Coined the term cell • (1839)Theodor Schwann & Matthias Schleiden “ all living things are made of cells” • (50 yrs. later) Rudolf Virchow “all cells come from cells” (CELL THEORY) Cell Theory • All living things are made of cells • Smallest living unit of structure and function of all organisms is the cell • All cells arise from preexisting cells (this principle discarded the idea of spontaneous generation) All cells have… • • • • A surrounding membrane Protoplasm – cell contents in thick fluid Organelles – structures for cell function Control center with DNA Types of cells • Prokaryotic cells – – Do not have a membrane bound nucleus – Nucleoid = region of DNA concentration – Organelles not bound by membrane And.. • Eukaryotic cells – – Has a true nucleus bound by membrane – Include fungi, protists, plant, and animal cells – Possess many organelles Organelles • Specialized subunits of cells that have a particular function • Prokaryotes have a few (e.g., ribosomes) • Eukaryotes have many, usually surrounded by a membrane • This where we get the term “Membrane-bound organelles” Cell Membrane • Also called plasma membrane • Protects and supports the cell • Controls what enters and leaves the cell • It is a lipid bilayer (what does this mean??) • Found in all types of cells – prokaryotes and eukaryotes! Cell Wall • Found in eukaryotic plant and protist cells; also in prokaryotes • Main function is protection, rigidity, and support • Outside of cell membrane • Made of cellulose (a carb!) • Allows water and dissolved substances to pass through. The Nucleus • Controls most activities in the cell • Usually one per cell • Contains DNA – the coded instructions for making proteins and other molecules for the cell • The nuclear envelope has nuclear pores, where things can enter or leave See? Nucleolus • Small, dense region in the middle of the nucleus • This is where ribosomes are formed. Cytoplasm • Clear fluid within cell that contains all organelles • Moves materials throughout the cell It’s the light blue/gray stuff in this picture Ribosomes • Makes proteins in the cell • May be free in cytoplasm or attached to ER • Proteins are vital to life – all cells must produce them!!! In prokaryotes and eukaryotes Golgi Apparatus (Bodies) • Stacks of membranes used for storing, modifying, or packaging (the cell’s packaging plant!) • Packaged chemicals can be stored inside the cell or move outside the cell • Cells that make saliva or mucus have many Golgi bodies Endoplasmic Reticulum • Series of folded membranes that form sacs or tubes • Two types – smooth and rough Smooth ER vs. Rough ER Smooth ER •Smooth - no ribosomes! •Synthesizes (makes) lipids •Detoxifies drugs Rough ER •Ribosomes make it look rough or bumpy •Ribosomes synthesize (make) proteins, so the Rough ER is where this happens! Lysosomes • Made by the Golgi Apparatus • Full of digestive enzymes to digest unwanted particles • Help white blood cells to destroy bacteria • Clean-up crew! censored!!! Peroxisomes • Filled with enzymes to digest toxic substances • Numerous in the liver • Do not form at Golgi Body Vacuoles • Store food, water, or waste materials • In plant cells, they are very large! Vacuoles and lysosomes working together! Amazing! Astounding! Chloroplasts • Found in eukaryotic plant cells & some protist cells • Capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy during photosynthesis Mitochondria • Energy producers – the “powerhouse” of the cell! • Convert chemical energy into useable energy • Found in animal and plant cells Many mitochondria in muscle cells – why?? Contain DNA from ovum – so all your mitochondria are from your mom! (Thanks, Mom) Cytoskeleton • Overlapping network of filaments and fibers that support the cell and help it maintain its shape • Can also help cells move • Microfilaments and microtubules • Help to organize the cell during cell division Centrioles • They migrate to either side of the cell and help to pull it apart • Only found in animal cells! Centrioles are made of microtubules Flagellum • Extension of the cytoskeleton- Allows movement, main source of transportation for cells • Only some animals and some prokaryotes have these Cilia/Pili • Extension of the cytoskeleton- Allows things to move around the cell. Propels mucus in your throat, helps with hearing in your ears, and helps move food particles in your stomach. • Only some animal cells and some prokaryotes Some organelles have their own DNA…. • Two organelles have their own DNA – mitochondria and chloroplasts. • Among multicellular animals, nearly all of the mtDNA in a fertilized egg is inherited from only the mother. – One mechanism for this is simple dilution: an egg contains 100,000 to 1,000,000 mitochondria, whereas a sperm contains only 10 to 100. Endosymbiotic Theory: • Mitochondria and chloroplasts descended from ancient prokaryotes that developed symbiotic relationships with ancient cells. • In other words… mitochondria and chloroplasts are former prokaryotes that now “live” inside eukaryotes! More Historic Figures • 1600s – Robert Hooke – cork cells – Anton van Leeuwenhoek – “animalcules” • 1800s – Matthias Schleiden – “Father of” Cell Theory • 1900s – Janet Plowe –cell membrane is an actual structure – George Langford – from NC!
