Cells

• Cells are the smallest functional unit of living things.

• The basic unit of life

• Living things are made of one or more cells.

• Cell structure and function is central to whole organism structure and function.

Types of Cells

• Prokayrotic Bacteria

• Eukaryotic Everything else– Plants– Animals– Fungi– Algae– protists

3 Major Eukaryotic Cell PartsThe major parts of the cell include• Plasma membrane — the outer boundary of the cell,

controls/regulates what enters or exits cell• Cytoplasm — within PM, performs most cell activities• Nucleus— contains & protects DNA; “control center” of cell

Cytoplasm

Nucleus

You will observe and compare the VISIBLE structure among:

• Human Cheek Cell (animal cell)

• Elodea Cell (plant cell)

• Onion Cell (plant cell)

• Have one person at each table set up different slide and then look at eachothers microscopes.

Mitosis and the Cell Theory:

• Cells only come from pre-existing cells (part of cell theory)

• Existing cells must divide to create new cells– Growth or replacement of damaged/dead cells

• New cells need all the DNA/genetic information the original cell had

• DNA must be copied, then divided equally, then cell can divide.

Mitotic Cell Division • Cell gets signal it will/must divide in the future

– Duplicates its DNA/chromosomes• This process is called replication

– Separates/divys the chromosomes into two complete groups

• This process is called mitosis

– Cytoplasm splits apart and two cells are formed• This process is called cytokinesis

– The result is two daughter cells, each with a complete set of DNA that is identical to one another and identical to the original cell (genetically identical)

1 copy of each chromosome

2 copy of each chromosome

Replication of DNA during S-phase of interphase

1 copy of each chromosome

1 copy of each chromosome

• Mitosis divides/separate the two copies of identical chromosomes

• Cytokinesis divides up the cytoplasm contentsParent/mother cell

daughter cells: each with one copy of each chromosome, genetically identical to the mother cell

Vacuole

• Isolating materials that might be harmful or a threat to the cell

• Containing waste products

• Containing water in plant cells

• Maintaining internal hydrostatic pressure or turgor within the cell--support

• Maintaining an acidic internal pH

• Containing small molecules

• Exporting unwanted substances from the cell

• Allows plants to support structures such as leaves and flowers due to the pressure of the central vacuole

• In seeds, stored proteins needed for germination are kept in 'protein bodies', which are modified vacuoles.[4]
