Cells All living things are made up of cells Smallest unit of life Two types of cells: Prokaryotic : simple Eukaryotic : complex
A typical bacterial cell:
Animal Cell Separates cell from outside Control center Holds the DNA Surrounds nucleus Holes for transport of materials Makes ribosomes Holds organelles Makes proteins Modifies proteins Makes lipids Packages and ships Vesicle transport Digestion vesicle Makes ATP for energy Centrioles : involved in cell division Cytoskeleton : internal organization and movement
Animal Cell Examples Human Cheek Cell Stained with methylene blue
Plant Cell Protection, support Store water, wastes Increase surface area photosynthesis
Plant cell examples Elodea Onion epidermis Stained with Iodine solution
