  1. Cell Structure and Function

  2. Agre and CellsIn The News Insert video clip Agre and Cells

  3. Cells • Smallest living unit • Most are microscopic

  4. Discovery of Cells • Robert Hooke (mid-1600s) • Observed sliver of cork • Saw “row of empty boxes” • Coined the term cell

  5. Cell theory • Theodor Schwann “ all living things are made of cells” • Rudolf Virchow “all cells from cells”

  6. Principles of Cell Theory • All living things are made of cells • Smallest living unit of structure and function of all organisms is the cell • All cells arise from preexisting cells

  7. Cell Size

  8. Cells Have Large Surface Area-to-Volume Ratio

  9. Characteristics of All Cells • A surrounding membrane • Protoplasm – cell contents in thick fluid • Organelles – structures for cell function • Control center with DNA

  10. Cell Types • Prokaryotic • Eukaryotic

  11. Prokaryotic Cells • First cell type on earth • Cell type of Bacteria and Archaea

  12. Prokaryotic Cells • No membrane bound nucleus • Nucleoid = region of DNA concentration • Organelles not bound by membranes

  13. Eukaryotic Cells • Nucleus bound by membrane • Include fungi, protists, plant, and animal cells • Possess many organelles Protozoan

  14. Representative Animal Cell

  15. Representative Plant Cell

  16. Organelles • Cellular machinery • Two general kinds • Derived from membranes • Bacteria-like organelles

  17. Bacteria-Like Organelles • Derived from symbiotic bacteria • Ancient association • Endosymbiotic theory • Evolution of modern cells from cells & symbiotic bacteria

  18. Plasma Membrane • Contains cell contents • Double layer of phospholipids & proteins

  19. Phospholipids • Polar • Hydrophylic head • Hydrophobic tail • Interacts with water

  20. Movement Across the Plasma Membrane • A few molecules move freely • Water, Carbon dioxide, Ammonia • Carrier proteins transport some molecules • Proteins embedded in lipid bilayer • Fluid mosaic model – describes fluid nature of a lipid bilayer with proteins

  21. Membrane Proteins • Channels or transporters • Move molecules in one direction • Receptors • Recognize certain chemicals

  22. Membrane Proteins • Glycoproteins • Identify cell type • Enzymes • Catalyze production of substances

  23. Cell Walls • Found in plants, fungi, & many protists • Surrounds plasma membrane

  24. Cell Wall Differences • Plants – mostly cellulose • Fungi – contain chitin

  25. Cytoplasm • Viscous fluid containing organelles • Interconnected filaments & fibers • Fluid = cytosol • Organelles

  26. Cytoskeleton • Filaments & fibers • Made of 3 fiber types • Microfilaments • Microtubules • Intermediate filaments

  27. A = actin, IF = intermediate filament, MT = microtubule

  28. Cilia & Flagella • Provide motility • Cilia • Short • Used to move substances outside human cells • Flagella • Whip-like extensions • Found on sperm cells

  29. Cilia & Flagella Structure • Bundles of microtubules • With plasma membrane

  30. Centrioles • Pairs of microtubular structures • Play a role in cell division

  31. Membranous Organelles • Functional components within cytoplasm • Bound by membranes

  32. Nucleus • Control center of cell • Double membrane • Contains • Chromosomes • Nucleolus

  33. Nuclear Envelope • Separates nucleus from rest of cell • Double membrane • Has pores

  34. DNA • Hereditary material • Chromosomes • DNA • Protiens • Form for cell division

  35. Nucleolus • Most cells have 2 or more • Directs synthesis of RNA • Forms ribosomes

  36. Endoplasmic Reticulum • Helps move substances within cells • Network of interconnected membranes • Two types • Rough endoplasmic reticulum • Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

  37. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum • Ribosomes attached to surface • Manufacture protiens • Not all ribosomes attached to rough ER • May modify proteins from ribosomes

  38. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum • No attached ribosomes • Has enzymes that help build molecules • Carbohydrates • Lipids

  39. Golgi Apparatus • Involved in synthesis of plant cell wall • Packaging & shipping station of cell

  40. Golgi Apparatus Function • Molecules come in vesicles • Vesicles fuse with Golgi membrane • Molecules may be modified by Golgi

  41. Golgi Apparatus Function (Continued) • Molecules pinched-off in separate vesicle • Vesicle leaves Golgi apparatus • Vesicles may combine with plasma membrane to secrete contents

  42. Lysosomes • Contain digestive enzymes • Functions • Aid in cell renewal • Break down old cell parts • Digests invaders

  43. Vacuoles • Membrane bound storage sacs • Common in plants • Contents • Water • Food • wastes

  44. Bacteria-Like Organelles • Release & store energy • Types • Mitochondria • Chloroplasts

  45. Mitochondria • Have their own DNA • Bound by double membrane

  46. Mitochondria • Break down fuel molecules • Glucose • Fatty acids • Release energy • ATP

  47. Chloroplasts • Derived form photosynthetic bacteria • Energy capturing organelle

  48. Photosynthesis • Process of chloroplast • Makes cellular food – glucose
