Presentation Transcript

  1. Cytology

  2. Cytology • Cytology : study of the structure and function of cells. • Cytoplasm : area of space outside the nucleus; contains the organelles & cytosol. • Organelles are tiny structures in the cytoplasm which perform various jobs for the cell. • Cytosol is the fluid part of the cytoplasm.

  3. Prokaryotic Cells • They lack a nuclear membrane as well any other membrane covered organelles in their cytoplasm. • Considered to be “Primitive Cells” • Example : Bacteria & Blue-Green Algae

  4. Eukaryotic Cells • They possess a nuclear membrane as well as membrane bound organelles in their cytoplasm. • Example : Plant & Animal Cells

  5. The Nucleus • is the computer or control center of the cell. • discovered by James Watson, Francis Crick, & Rosalind Franklin (1953). • contains the genetic material of life DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). • a DNA molecule consists of nucleotides connected together.

  6. Nucleotide A nucleotide consists of a : 1. Phosphate group 2. Deoxyribose sugar 3. Nitrogen base: 4 types Adenine (A) Thymine (T) Cytosine (C) Guanine (G) DNA consists of two nucleotide chains connected together. A & T always pair up, while C & G do the same.

  7. DNA Double Helix

  8. DNA Replication New Strand Original strand Nitrogen Bases Growth Growth Replication Fork Replication Fork DNA Polymerase

  9. Long chains of DNA form Chromatin. • Short sections of DNA along a piece of chromatin form Genes. • A gene will either produce or influence a specific trait in the offspring.

  10. Chromatin Chromatin Nucleosome DNA double helix Coils Supercoils Histones

  11. Nucleolus / Nucleoli (plural) : a dark spherical structure that is the site of ribosome formation. • Ribosomes and other important chemical messages leave the nucleus through the Nuclear Pores. The membrane around the nucleus is called the Nuclear Membrane or Envelope.

  12. Mitochondrion • Mitochondria (plural) : is a membrane bound oval shaped organelle that function as the cell’s “power plant”. • Creates the energy rich molecule called ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate). • ATP is created through a process called Cellular Respiration which requires oxygen and therefore is an Aerobic process

  13. Cellular Respiration C6H12O6 + 6O2 + enzyme 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP Only eukaryotic cells have mitochondria. The Cristae (inner membrane with finger-like projections) have enzymes attached to them where cellular respiration occurs. Mitochondria have their own DNA different from that of the nucleus. Biologists believe that a bacteria got trapped inside the early cell and evolved into this energy producing organelle. This mitochondrial DNA is very similar to bacterial DNA !

  14. How do prokaryotic cells make ATP? • They rely on a process called Fermentation. • Fermentation is a simple Anaerobic (no O2) process that partially breaks down glucose to make SOME ATP. • Example: Lactic Acid Fermentation which bacteria and humans perform. Glucose + Enzyme Lactic Acid + 2 ATP

  15. Chloroplast • Found only in plant cells. • Contain the green pigment chlorophyll. • They are involved with the process of Photosynthesis which takes place within these Thylakoid Membranes.

  16. Photosynthesis 6CO2 + 6H2O + sun light C6H12O6 + 6O2 The glucose created from photosynthesis can now be broken down through Cellular Respiration to make 36 ATP. Chloroplasts also have their own DNA ?
