Cells
•Smallest living unit
•Most are microscopic
Cell Size
Cell Diversity- ShapeCell Diversity- Shape
•Cells differ widely in shape.
•Size and shape relate to their
function.
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
(this principle discarded the idea of
spontaneous generation)
Characteristics of All Cells
•A surrounding membrane
•cytoplasm – cell contents in thick fluid
•Organelles – structures for cell function
•Control center with DNA
Cell Types
•Prokaryotic
•Eukaryotic
Prokaryotic Cells
•First cell type on earth
•Cell type of Bacteria and Archaea
•Most are unicellular organisms
called prokaryotes
Prokaryotic Cells
•No nucleus
•DNA floats freely in the cytoplasm
•No organelles, only free floating proteins
Eukaryotic Cells
•Nucleus – DNA surrounded by a nucleus
•Include fungi, protists, plant, and animal cells
•Possess many organelles
•Much larger than prokaryotic cells
Protozoan
Prokaryote vs. Eukaryote
•Pro = No nucleus
•Eu = Yes, there is a
nucleus
Cell Membrane
•All cells
•Protects the inside of a cell from the outside
•Made of proteins and lipids called
phospholids
Phospholipids
Protein
Movement Across the Plasma Membrane
•Some things move freely in and out of the cell
•Some things are blocked and need proteins to
help them cross the membrane
Cell Walls
•Found in plants, fungi, & many protists
•Surrounds plasma membrane
•Gives shape and support
Cell Wall Differences
•Stiff structure
•Protects from viruses and other
harmful organisms
•Has holes that connect cell
membranes between cells
Cytoplasm
•Fluid inside the cell
•Mostly water and salts
•Cytoskeleton
–Proteins that are the framework of a cell
–Like a skeleton or web of stick-like proteins
–Gives shape
–Helps the cell move
Cell Appendages
•Help with movement
–Flagella – tail-like and whips back and forth
–Cilia – fine-hairs that move the cell or
molecules around it
Nucleus
•Control center of cell
•Usually largest
organelle
•Double membrane
•Contains
–Chromosomes
–Nucleolus
Nuclear Envelope
•Separates nucleus from rest of cell
•Double membrane
•Has pores
Nucleolus
•Dark Spot in nucleus
•Forms ribosomes, organelle that makes
proteins
DNA
•Hereditary material
•Chromosomes
–tightly wound DNA
•Humans have 23
pairs
Endoplasmic Reticulum
•Helps move substances within cells
•Network of interconnected membranes
•Two types
–Rough endoplasmic reticulum
–Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
•Ribosome are attached
•Spreads throughout the cell
•The site of protein production
Ribosome
•Attached to the rough ER
–Make proteins
–Attached to rough ER or free floating
–Not surrounded my a membrane
–There are many in a cell
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
•No attached ribosomes
•Makes lipids such as cholesterol
–Carbohydrates
–Lipids
Golgi Apparatus
•Involved in synthesis of plant cell wall
•Packaging & shipping station of cell
Golgi Apparatus Function
1. Prepares proteins for their jobs
2. Packages proteins into vesicles
Vesicles
•Many inside the cell
•After a protein is modified in the Golgi Apparatus
a vesicle pinches off containing the proteins
•Transport substances
•Tiny balls of membrane
Lysosome
•Specialized Vesicle
•Full of enzymes, proteins that break down
and recycle cell components like old
proteins
•Tiny membrane ball
•Many
Vacuoles
•Membrane bound storage sacs
•Plant cells have one large one
•Animal cells have many small ones
•Contents
–Water
–Food
–wastes
Energy Processing
Organelles
•Release & store energy
•Types
–Mitochondria
(release energy)
–Chloroplasts
(store energy)
Mitochondria
•Hundreds sometimes thousands
•Bound by double membrane
Mitochondria
•Break down fuel molecules (cellular respiration)
–Glucose
–Fatty acids
•Release energy
–ATP
ATP
•Adenosine triphosphate
•High-energy molecule
•Fuel for cellular processes
Chloroplasts
•In plant cells
•Membrane bound
•Uses light to make glucose from CO2 and
H2O
Photosynthesis
•Takes place in the chloroplast
•Makes cellular food – glucose

Cell Transport
Cells Have Large Surface
Area-to-Volume Ratio
Molecule Movement & Cells
•Passive Transport
•Active Transport
•Endocytosis
(phagocytosis & pinocytosis)
•Exocytosis
Passive Transport
•No energy required
•Move due to gradient
–differences in concentration, pressure, charge
•Move to equalize gradient
–High moves toward low
Types of Passive Transport
1. Diffusion
2. Osmosis
3. Facilitated diffusion
Diffusion
•Molecules move to equalize concentration
Osmosis
•Special form of diffusion
•Fluid flows from lower solute concentration
•Often involves movement of water
–Into cell
–Out of cell
Solution Differences & Cells
• solvent + solute = solution
•Hypotonic
–Solutes in cell more than outside
–Outside solvent will flow into cell
•Isotonic
–Solutes equal inside & out of cell
•Hypertonic
–Solutes greater outside cell
–Fluid will flow out of cell
Facilitated Diffusion
•Differentially permeable membrane
•Channels (are specific) help molecule
or ions enter or leave the cell
•Channels usually are transport proteins
(aquaporins facilitate the movement of
water)
•No energy is used
Process of Facilitated Transport
•Protein binds with molecule
•Shape of protein changes
•Molecule moves across membrane
Active Transport
•Molecular movement
•Requires energy (against gradient)
•Example is sodium-potassium pump
Endocytosis
•Movement of large material
–Particles
–Organisms
–Large molecules
•Movement is into cells
• Types of endocytosis
– bulk-phase (nonspecific)
– receptor-mediated (specific)
Process of Endocytosis
•Plasma membrane surrounds material
•Edges of membrane meet
•Membranes fuse to form vesicle
Forms of Endocytosis
•Phagocytosis – cell eating
•Pinocytosis – cell drinking
Exocytosis
•Reverse of endocytosis
•Cell discharges material
Exocytosis
•Vesicle moves to cell surface
•Membrane of vesicle fuses
•Materials expelled
