Cells & Organelles
Cells
Definition
•Cell: the basic unit of structure and function in living
organisms
•There are different types of cells… Examples:
Eukaryotic
Animal cells
Plant cells
Prokaryotic
Bacterial cells
Cell Theory
•
The Cell Theory has 3 main points:
KNOW THESE!!! Characteristics of Cells:
1. All living things are composed of cells
2. Cells are the basic units of structure and
function in living things
3. All cells are produced from other existing
cells
Organelles
Definition:
•
Organelle: a tiny structure in a cell that
carries out a specific function within a cell
Organelles
Characteristics:
•
The organelles work together to create a
properly functioning system (the cell)…
•
•
just like all the parts of a factory work
together to make a properly functioning
factory!
If one organelle is removed or missing, the
cell will not function properly!
The 5 Functions of Cells
KNOW THESE!!! (STIPE)
• Structure
• Transport
• Information storage & commands
• Production system (making materials)
• Energy
Organelles
• Some organelles are part of a system to
provide structure & support to cells
Organelles:
Plasma / Cell Membrane
• Function:
• “Baggie” that
holds the cell
together and
provides a
barrier to the
outside
environment
Organelles:
Plasma / Cell Membrane
• Feature 1: found
around outside of cell
• Feature 2: Selectively
permeable: only
allows certain
substances in and
out of cell
• Feature 3: made of a
phospholipid bilayer
Organelles:
Plasma / Cell Membrane
•
The phospholipid bilayer
Organelles: Cytoskeleton
• Function: Gives support &
shape to the cell and
provides movement for
objects inside cell
Organelles: Cytoskeleton
• Features:
• Made of protein fibers
in the cell
• Can be dis- and
reassembled to
change shape of cell
• Acts like a monorail
system for transport
using “motor proteins”
Organelles: Cytoplasm

Site of chemical
reactions; holds
organelles in
place (like pieces
of fruit in jello)

that fills the cell
70-90% water
Organelles: Cytoplasm
Organelles

instruction manual
for the entire cell /
organism)
Organelles, cont.

membranes
formed from
Golgi
Organelles:
Smooth ER

where fats &
carbohydrates are made

attached (hence being
smooth), has tubes and
canals of membranes
Organelles:
Lysosome

Cleans and breaks down
unused or unwanted
materials in the cell
Breaks down / destroys:
worn out parts of the cell,
bacteria, foreign particles,
toxic wastes
Organelles:

• Mostly found in
animals, but can exist
in plants
Organelles
• Some organelles provide energy for cells
Organelles: Mitochondria

food into usable energy
(ATP) which is used by
cells to do work

cell

releases nutrients
and wastes
• Prevents plant
from wilting (think
of water balloons)
Organelles: Vacuole
• Features:
• 1: Takes up a large
portion of plant cells
• 2: Can “deflate” when
a plant isn’t watered
enough → wilting
plant! Or give
fruits/veggies its
crispiness if full
• Large in plants,
sometimes present
but small in animals

The Cell as a
Coordinated Unit
• Cell ≠ Organelle
• Why is a cell classified as the basic
unit of structure & function in living
things, but organelles are not?
The Cell as a
Coordinated Unit
Coordinated Unit
• Each organelle has a specific function
• All organelles are dependent on each
other to produce a properly-working cell
• The sum is greater than its parts
The Cell as a
Coordinated Unit
• Each organelle can carry out 1+
characteristic of living things, but not all
of them
• The organelles work together to create
a properly functioning system (the cell)
that fulfills all 6 characteristics of life
• If one organelle is removed or missing,
the cell will not function properly!
Energy…

things?

Are Viruses Living?
• We need to look at what makes
something living…
• What are the 6 characteristics of living
things?
Viruses
•
Evidence to Explore…
•
Characteristics of life
1.Made of cells
2.Made of chemicals
3.Use/obtain energy
4.Grow & develop
5.Reproduce
6.Respond to environment
Viruses
• Evidence for Life/Cells
• Made of Chemicals
• Viruses ARE made from CHO, etc.
• Respond to Environment
• Viruses ARE able to respond to their
environment
•They look alive so far…
•
Viruses
Evidence Against Life/Cells
•
•
•
•
Reproduce
•
•
Kind of…
They require the machinery of other organisms to
reproduce, NOT on their own!
Use/obtain energy
•
Do not metabolize
Grow & develop
•
Not on their own
Made of cells
•
•VIRUSES have SOME
characteristics of
living things, but not
all… so they are NOT
considered LIVING
organisms
No! because of all of the reasons mentioned above
Various Viruses
