  1. CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION CHAPTER 7

  2. Section 1 NOTES • The CELL is the basic unit of structure and function in living things. • CELL THEORY states • 1. All living things are composed of cells • 2. Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things • 3. New cells are produced from living cells

  3. The History of the Cell • 1. Robert Hooke – viewed a thin slice of cork with an early compound microscope (1665) • Name them cells because of a monastery’s tiny rooms. 2. Anton van Leeuwenhoek - observed tiny organisms in drops of pond water (1674)

  4. History of the Cell • 3. Matthias Schleiden – Concludes that all plants are made of cells (1838) • 4. Theodor Schwann – Based upon Schleiden’s work, concludes animals are living so all animals are also made up of cells (1839

  5. History of the Cell • 5. Rudolph Virchow – proposes that all cells come from existing cells completing the cell theory (1855) • 6. Lynn Margulis • Endosymbiont Theory – Prokaryotic organisms (mitochondria and chloroplasts) were once free living but began a symbiotic relationship with larger multi-cellular organisms. • Contain their own DNA • Have their own membranes • Reproduce independent of cell

  6. Endosymbiotic Theory • Contain their own DNA • Have their own membranes • Reproduce independent of cell

  7. Studying the Structure and Movement of the Cell • What is a Light microscope? • Advantages/Disadvantages? • What is an Electron microscope? • Advantages/Disadvantages? *** NEW TECHNOLOGY 1990s *** Scanning probe microscope – traces the surface of a sample. • Images of DNA, Protein molecules, and other important biological structures

  8. Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes • Complete the Venn Diagram to compare the characteristics of a prokaryote and a eukaryote.

  9. Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes • Both are living things • Both are surrounded by a cell membrane • Both contain DNA What class of organic molecules is DNA? What is its monomer? 3 Parts? What is the function of DNA?

  10. Prokaryotes • 1. Do not contain a nucleus • 2. Smaller and simpler • 3. DNA is free floating within the cell • 4. Grow, reproduce, respond to environment Some can move or swim • Example: bacteria

  11. Eukaryotes • 1. Contain a nucleus that contains DNA separate from rest of cell • 2. Larger and more complex • 3. Dozens of Highly specialized membranes and structures • 4. Single celled to large complex multi-cellular organisms Examples: Plants, animals, fungi, and algae
