2.1The Structure & Functions of
Eukaryotic Cells
![Page 2: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Cells
• Smallest living unit• Most are microscopic
![Page 3: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Defining a Cell
• A cell is a confined system of potentially self perpetuating linked organic reactions that are catalyzed step-wise by enzymes.
![Page 4: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Principles of The Cell Theory
• All living things are made of 1 or more cells
• Smallest living unit of structure and function of all organisms is the cell
• All cells arise from pre-existing cells
(this principle discarded the idea of
spontaneous generation)

Cell Size

Small Cells have a large Surface Area-to-Volume Ratio. Why?
![Page 7: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Why are S.A./Vol. Ratios Important?
• Surface area represents the “access” available to and from a cell for supplies.
• Volume represents how much has to be supplied.
• The more “access” you have to supply each unit of volume, the more efficient the cell is.

Characteristics of Living Cells
• Very complex• Very small• Self-replicating• Autonomous/semiautonomous• Homeostatic

There are 2 Cell Types
• Prokaryotic
• Eukaryotic
![Page 10: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Prokaryotic Cells• First cell type on earth
(chemosynthetic)• All are single celled (ie Bacteria)
![Page 11: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Prokaryotic Cells
• No membrane bound structures inside• Nucleoid instead of nucleus (region of DNA
concentration).• Organelles not bound by membranes
![Page 12: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Eukaryotic Cells
• Internal membrane bound organelles• Cytoplasm (cytosol, organelles +
molecule & ions ) for metabolism• Cell Membrane (Phospholipid bilayer)• Can be Single or Multi-celled
Protozoan

Eukaryotic Plant Cell

Cytoplasm
• Viscous fluid containing organelles• components of cytoplasm
– Interconnected protein filaments & fibers – Fluid = cytosol– Organelles (not nucleus)– storage substances
![Page 19: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Nucleus • Control center of the cell
• Contains nucleoplasm
• Wrapped by a nuclear envelope which is a double membrane.
• Nuclear pore complexes form openings in nuclear envelope
• Contains
– Chromosomes (DNA)
– Nucleolus
![Page 20: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Nucleus Micrograph

Chromosomes (DNA)• Hereditary material• Chromosomes - DNA + proteins
– Short, thick strands– form for cell division
• Chromatin - DNA + proteins
– long, thin strands– form for interphase
• DNA is transcribed & translated into protein to express hereditary traits
![Page 22: 2.1 The Structure & Functions of Eukaryotic Cells.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e675503460f94b62695/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Nucleolus
•Non-membrane bound•Contains RNA & proteins•Most cells have 2 or more.•Directs synthesis of RNA•Forms ribosomes
