Cells Early Microscopes • Robert Hooke – Looked at cork – Started calling the basic building block of life “cell”s • Anton vanLeeuwenhoek – Looked at living things under a microscope The Cell Theory • All living things are made up of cells. • Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living things. • New cells are produced from existing cells. Important Cell Terms • Nucleus: Membrane-bound organelle that holds the genetic material in eukaryotes • Organelle: “tiny organs” – Specialized structures inside cells • Cytoplasm: fluid-like substance inside all cells Cell Types • Prokaryotes • Eukaryotes Prokaryotes • Small (0.1 μm – 10 μm) • Genetic material is not in a nucleus – DNA is in the cytoplasm • Unicellular organisms (live alone) • Example: bacteria Eukaryotes • Larger than prokaryotes • Have nucleus and organelles • Can live alone (unicellular) or with other cells (multicellular) • Two types: Plant and Animal Plant/Animal Cell A B C D E F G H I J K L M Organelle Name Function Animal Cell Animal Cell Organelle Name A Centriole B Microtubules C Lysosome D Mitochondria E Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (Rough ER) F Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (Smooth ER) G Ribosome H Flagella I Golgi Apparatus J Nucleolus K Nuclear Envelope L Cytoplasm M Cell Membrane Function Organelles • Centriole – Near nucleus – Help with cell division Cell Parts • Intermediate Filaments • Microtubules – Cell shape – Cell organization • Microfilaments Organelles • Lysosome – Small, filled with enzymes – Break down, or digest, lipids, carbohydrates and proteins – Get rid of old cell parts Organelles • Mitochondria – “power house” of the cell – convert food into useable energy Organelles • Endoplasmic Reticulum – Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum • Synthesis of proteins (ribosomes on the surface) – Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum • Make enzymes that perform special tasks (like making lipids and detoxification of drugs) Organelles • Ribsomes – Cellular “factory” – makes proteins Organelles • Flagella – Tail-like structure used for movement • Cilia Organelles • Golgi apparatus – Modify, sort and package proteins and other material from the ER Organelles • Nucleus – 3 parts: • Nucleolus – Makes ribosomes • Nuclear Envelope – Membrane around the nucleus, contains nuclear pores Cell Parts • Cytoplasm – Fluid-like substance between the nuclear envelope (which surrounds the nucleus) and the cell membrane – Organelles are found floating in the cytoplasm Cell Parts • Cell membrane – In all cells – Barrier between outside of cell and inside of cell – Regulates what enters and leaves Plant Cell Plant Cell Organelle Name A Cell Membrane B Cytoplasm C Nuclear Envelope D Nucleolus E Golgi Apparatus F Vacuole G Ribosome H Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (Smooth ER) I Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (Rough ER) J Mitochondria K Chloroplast L Microtubules M Cell Wall Function Cell Parts • Cell wall – ONLY in PLANT cells – Outside of cell membrane – Thick, rigid barrier to protect cells Organelles • Chloroplasts – Capture sunlight to make energy for the cell – ONLY in PLANT cells Organelles • Vacuole – Storage of water, salts, carbohydrates and proteins – Large in plant cells – Found in some prokaryotes and animal cells
