Presentation Transcript

  1. Cells Or how humans are similar to amoebas

  2. Organisms are Diverse yet Share similar Characteristics • All organisms are made up of cells. • Organisms have similar chemical compositions. • All living things require energy. • Organisms can grow and develop. • All living things reproduce.

  3. Unicellular Organisms Clockwise from upper left: diatoms, salmonella bacteria, cholera bacteria, protist

  4. Multicellular Organisms In multicellular organisms, cells are often organized into tissues, organs and organ systems

  5. Cell Structure • Cell wall (plants only): protects & supports the cell. • Cell membrane: controls what enters & leaves the cell. • Nucleus: directs all the cell’s activities. • Nuclear envelope: protects the nucleus. • Chromatin: contains the genetic material. • Nucleolus: where ribosomes are made. • Cytoplasm: thick, gel-like fluid containing the organelles.

  6. Cells & Organelles • Mitochondria • Endoplasmic reticulum • Ribosomes • Golgi bodies • Chloroplasts • Vacuoles • Lysosomes • Chloroplasts (plants only)

  7. Cell Diversity The variety of structures in cells reflects differences in cell function

  8. Describe how humans are similar to amoebas.
