Review for Quiz What is the unit for measuring length? What is the unit for measuring volume? What is the unit for measuring mass?
Convert: 1m = km 13.45 kg= g 145.67L= mL
Robert Hooke Discovered cells Looked at cork under microscope Saw little boxes Coined the term cells.
The Cell TheoryAll living things are made of one or
more cells.
Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things.
All cells arise from existing cells.
Cell Size Small cells function more efficiently than large cells.
Surface area-to-volume ratio
If the surface area-to-volume ratio is too low, substances cannot enter and leave the cell in numbers large enough to support the cell’s needs.
Small cells can exchange substances more readily than large cells.
Small cells have a higher surface area-to-volume ratio.`

Do Analysis Questions # 1-3
Common Features of Cells Cell membrane- encloses the cell and separates
the cell’s interior from surroundings. Regulates what goes into and out of the cell
Cytoplasm- interior of the cell.
Cytoskeleton- inner structure of the cell, made of tiny fibers.
Ribosomes- structures in a cell that make proteins.
Quiz1. List the three components of the cell theory.
2. Who looked under the microscope and discovered cells?
3. Who invented the microscope?
Prokaryotes Smallest and simplest cells.
Lacks a nucleus and internal compartments.
Most common example: bacteria
Some do not need oxygen to survive
DNA material is circular
Have a cell wall
Flagella- threadlike structures that protrude from the cell’s surface and enable movement.
Prokaryotes
Eukaryotic Cells Eukaryotes have a nucleus.
Nucleus- an internal compartment that houses the cell’s DNA.
Organelle- a structure that carries out specific activities in a cell.
Eukaryotes
Cilia and Flagella Cilia- short hair-like structures that
protrude from the cell.
Flagella- long hair-like structure.
Cilia and Flagella
The Cell Membrane Not rigid like an eggshell Fluid like a soap bubble. Made of lipids
SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE- allows certain substances to pass through
Phospholipid Bilayer Phospholipid- made of a phosphate group
and two fatty acid tails. Hydrophilic head- water loving- polar Hydrophobic tail- water hating- nonpolar
Lipid bilayer- 2 layers of lipids
Allows lipids and substances that dissolve in lipids to pass through the membrane
Membrane Proteins
Marker protein- attach to a carbohydrate on the cell’s surface. Advertise cell type
Receptor protein- bind specific substances such as single molecules.
Enzymes- involved in important chemical reactions.
Transport proteins- aid in the movement of substances into and out of the cell
Membrane Proteins
Nucleus
Control most functions in a cell
Surrounded by a nuclear envelope
Nuclear envelope - made of two lipid bilayer
Nuclear pores-small channels on the nuclear envelops
Nucleolus- ribosomes are assembled here
Nucleus
Contains DNA
Eukaryotic DNA is wound tightly around proteins
Chromosomes- one of the structures in the nucleus made of DNA and protein.
Human body cells have 46 chromosomes
Garden peas have 14 chromosomes
Endoplasmic Reticulum Extensive system of internal membranes that
move proteins and other substances through the cell.
Membrane of ER is made of a lipid bilayer
ER with ribosomes- rough ER Helps transport proteins that are made in
ribosomes
ER without ribosomes- smooth ER Makes lipids and breaks down toxic substances
Mitochondria
Powerhouse of the cell
Harvests energy from organic compounds to make ATP.
ATP- the main energy currency of cells.
Cells have a high energy requirement
Mitochondria Double membrane
Outer membrane is smooth Inner membrane is folded
Mitochondria have DNA and ribosomes
Different from nuclear DNA
More like circular DNA in prokaryotes
Plant Cells
Plant cells have three structures that are different from animal cells.
1. Cell Wall 2. Central Vacuole 3. Chloroplasts
Lab Report – plant vs. animal cells Follow same format as murder and a meal Can be hand written if it needs to be. Make sure you use a source in your
introduction. Make sure you cite your sources. Come to me for help. Late labs= -10 per day- no exceptions Results- your drawings
Cell Wall
Thick outer covering of a plant cell
Rigid
Composed of proteins and carbohydrates
Support and maintain the shape of the cell
Connects the cell with adjacent cells
Central Vacuole
Makes up much of the volume of a plant cell
Stores water and other substances- ions, nutrients, and wastes
When the vacuole is full it makes the cell rigid.
This is what enables a plant to stand upright
Chloroplasts Organelles that use light energy to make
carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis!
Also found in algae
Supply much of the energy plant cells need
Surrounded by a double membrane
Contain their own DNA
Protein Synthesis 1. proteins are assembled by ribosomes on the
rough ER
2. vesicles carry proteins from rough ER to golgi body
3. Proteins are modified in the gogli body and put into new vesicles
4. some vesicles release proteins outside of the cell
5. Other vesicles become lysosomes and other vesicles.
Cytoskeleton Provides the internal framework for the cell.
Composed of an intricate network of protein fibers anchored to the inside of the plasma membrane.
1. microfilaments- made of actin 2. microtubules- made of tubulin 3. intermediate fibers- thick ropelike
Cytoskeleton

Fill the two cups with water Add about 3 drops of food coloring to the
cups. Place one small potato cube in one cup. Place a large potato cube in the other cup. Set for ten minutes. After ten minutes cut both cubes in half. What does this tell you about surface area-to-
volume ratio.
Cell Membrane Draw and label a phospholipid bilayer Be sure to include the following
Hydrophilic head Hydrophobic tails Integral protein Peripheral protein Sterol
