pre-existing cells
• 3.All organisms are
made from one or
more cells
CELLS
•
•
•
•
TWO BASIC TYPES
1. Prokaryotes
Simple
No nucleus or
organelles
• Example Bacteria
:Kingdom Monera
• PRO THINK NO!!
Cells
•
•
•
•
•
2. Eukaryotes:
Has a nucleus
Has organelles
More complex
Came from
prokaryotes
• Examples: Humans,
protists
PLANT CELLS

flagella or
pseudopodia
ORGANELLES
• Small specialized
structures that have
special functions
within cells.
ORGANELLES
• Nucleus- brain of cell
• Nucleolous- inside
nucleus- makes
ribosomes
• Chromosomes- inside
nucleus- made of
DNA- heredity
• Mitochondriapowerhouse of the cell
ORGANELLES
• Lysosome- cleans up
the cell
• Ribosome- makes
protein

apparatus- packages
things
• Vacuole- storage
CELL MEMBRANE
• Fluid Mosaic Model• Bilayer
• Made of Phospholipids
• Lipids on the insidehydrophobic
• Phosphates on the
outside- hydrophillic
CELL MEMBRANE
• Purpose: Gate
keeper
• Semi-Permeablelet’s some things in
keeps others out
GETTING THINGS INTO AND OUT
OF THE CELL MEMBRANE
• Holes in the
membrane let some
things in and out
with no problem- like
O2 and water
• The Proteins help get
bigger things across
the membrane.
Cell Transport

• PASSIVE- no energy
required.
• Examples include
Diffusion
CELL TRANSPORT
• OSMOSIS-diffusion
with water- passive
transport
CELL TRANSPORT
• ACTIVE
TRANSPORTrequires energy
• Used to get large
molecules into and
out of the cell.

channels/tunnels
Cell Transport
• EXOCYTOSISgetting things OUT
of the cell
CELL TRANSPORT
• ENDOCYTOSISgetting things INTO
the cell
CELL ENERGY
Photosynthesis and
Respiratioin
Unit FOUR
CELL ENERGY
• CELL RESPIRATION:
• Done by all cells
• Done in the
mitochondriapowerhouse of the cell.
• Method by which the cell
gets energy.
• ATP- Unit of Energy
• C6H12O6 + O2-> ATP
CELL ENERGY
• Two types of Cell
•
•
•
•
•
Respiration:
AEROBICUses oxygen
Is more efficient-> 32
ATPS
ANAEROBIC- No
oxygen
Less efficient-> 8 ATPS
ANAEROBIC vs. AEROBIC
•
•
•
•
•
ANAEROBIC:
No oxygen
Done by yeast
Inefficient
Produces Alcohol or
CO2
•
•
•
•
AEROBIC:
Oxygen
Efficient
Produces ATPs
Cell Respiration Steps
• Glycolysis: break
sugar down into
pyruvic acid.
• This happens in
BOTH anaerobic and
aerobic respiration.
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
• Done by plants.
• Done in the
chloroplast.
• CO2 + H2O with
sunlight ----
C6H12O6 + O2
RESPIRATION &
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
• Take home Message
• They are called
complementary or
opposite reactions to
each other. WHY?
Because the reactants
of one are the
products of the other.
CELL REPRODUCTION
UNIT 5
CELL CYCLE
• INTERPHASE:
longest part of cell
cycle. Includes:
• G1- growth phase
• S- synthesis phasesDNA is replicated
here
• G2- second growth
phase
CELL CYCLE
• After interphase
there is the M phase.
• M=Mitosis/ Meiosis
This is when the cell
actually divides.
CELL CYCLE
• MITOSIS:
• Occurs in body
(somatic) cells, in
bacteria or some
protists
• Only one parent cell
• End up with two
identical daughter
cells.
CELL CYCLE
• Mitosis:
• Different Phases- these
just tell you what the
chromosomes are doing.
• Prophase- chromosomes
thicken, nuclear
membrane disappears
• Metaphasechromosomes line up in
middle
CELL CYCLE
• MITOSIS:
• Anaphase:
chromosomes are
pulled to opposite
sides of cell
• Telophase: the cell
forms a cleavage
furrow and begins to
split.
CELL CYCLE
• MEIOSIS: Occurs in
gametes- sex cellseggs and sperm
ONLY!!!
• End up 4 Haploid (
only half the number
of chromosomes)
cells.
• Two Divisions
CELL DIVISON
• MITOSIS
• In body cells
• End up with 2
• MEIOSIS
• In sex cells
• End up with 4
identical diploid cells
• Prophase,
Metaphase,
Anaphase, Telophase
• Cytokinesis
haploid cells
• Goes through 2
divisions
GENETICS!!
Unit 6
DNA
• The take home message!
• DNA contains all the
•
•
•
•
information to create
proteins.
DNA is found in every
living cell.
DNA is in the nucleus
DNA can be used to
identify any organism
It is amazing!!
NUCLEIC ACIDS
• DNA- Deoxyribonucleic
•
•
•
•
Acid.
Made up of nucleotidesconsist of nitrogen base
and sugar and phosphate
Double stranded- double
helix- twisted ladder
Rungs are nitrogen bases
(ATCG)
Sides are sugars and
phosphates
• RNA- Ribonucleic
acid:
• Single stranded
• Made from
nucleotides
• Bases are: AUGC
HISTORY
• Rosalind Franklin
used X- Rays to held
determine DNA shape
• Watson and Crick
Discovered DNA
• Chargaff’s rulesA&T, C&G
DNA REPLICATION
• Only molecule in the
•
•
•
•
universe to do this
1. The Hydrogen bonds
break and the DNA
unzips.
2. Free floating
nucleotides fill in
3. The sides re-form
Replication happens
during the S phase of
Interphase in the cell
cycle.
Protein Synthesis
• DNA directs protein
synthesis.
• Two parts:
• Transcription: mRNA is
formed from
information from DNA.
mRNA leaves the
nucleus.
• Codons- three bases= an
amino acid
Protein Synthesis
• 2. Translation: The
mRNA attaches to a
ribosome. Then
tRNA brings
matching anti-codons
to the mRNA.
• This forms amino
acids
• Groups of amino
acids = protein
DNA TECHNOLOGY
• We Can’t clone
Humans
• We can clone some
animals
• Human Genome
Project- effort to
sequence human
DNA
Genetics
• Mutations: errors in
the DNA that can
result in disease.
• Examples: PKUcan’t metabolize an
amino acid
• Sickle-Cell Anemia
• Tay Sachs
Chromosome Structure
• DNA is tightly coiled
to form a
Chromosome
• Humans have 46
chromosomes.
• The chromosome has
genes on it.
• Genes are packets of
information.
Chromosomes
• Karyotype- the way
chromosomes are
organized on paper.
Done by size- biggest
to smallest.
• Used to determine if
too many or few, and
any problems
Genetics
• Traitscharacteristics that
are inherited
• Half of DNA comes
from mom, half from
dad.
• This is why you can
have your moms
smile and dad’s eyes.
Genetics History
• Mendel- Father of
•
•
•
•
•
genetics
A monk who worked with
pea plants
Came up with three laws
1. Law of Dominanceone “gene” is dominant
over another
2. Law of Segregationgenes separate
3.Law of Independent
Assortment- genes are
shuffled
Genetics Vocabulary
• Alleles- different
forms of the same
gene
• Phenotype- the
physical appearance
of a trait
• Genotype- the
genetic makeup of a
trait
Genetic Vocabulary
• Homozygous- same genes
for a trait. Ex. TT or tt
• Heterozygous- different
genes for a trait. Ex. Tt
• P1- first generation or
parent
• F1- second or filial
generation - offspring
Genetics
• Punnet Square- a
table used to show all
possible outcomes
from a mating
Genetics
• PEDIGREE-a chart
used to track a trait
through generations.

Pink flowers blend
with red flowers to
form pink
• Co Dominance :
Equal expression of
two alleles ex. Blood
type
Taxonomy
Unit 7
TAXONOMY
• Science of naming
and classifying
organisms.
• Each level of
organization is called
a taxon

•
•
•
•
•
The taxa:
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
Goes from broadest to
most specific
Taxonomy

nomenclature: fancy
way of saying two
name naming system.
• We use genus species
• Homo Sapien
Taxonomy
•
•
•
•
•
KINGDOMS:
Animalia
Plantae
Monera- bacteria
Protist- paramecium,
amoeba
• Fungi- mushrooms
Taxonomy
• Organisms grouped by
structural,
biochemical,
locomotive behavioral
and genetic
similarities.
• As you go from
kingdom to species,
the creatures are more
similar.
Taxonomy
• Homologous
structures- similar
and have a common
ancestor. EX. The
wings of birds and
bats. The actual
physical structure is
similar.
Taxonomy
• Analogous Structures
• Strucures that provide
the same function- but
DO NOT have a
common ancestor.
• EX. Bird and winset
wings
EVOLUTION
Unit 8
EVOLUTION
• Change over time
• Gradualism- change
takes place over
millions of years
• Punctuated
EquilibriumEverything stable for
a long while then a
sudden change then
stable again
EVOLUTION
• Darwin- came up with
Natural Selection- the
idea that organisms
gradually change by
adapting to their
environment so they
have a better chance
for survival.
• Survival of the
Fittest
EVOLUTION
• Geographic
Isolation- New
species develops
because part of the
population becomes
isolated and develops
different features.
• Ex. Darwin’s finches
ECOLOGY
