Cells
Early Microscopes
• Robert Hooke– Looked at cork– Started calling the basic building block of life
“cell”s
• Anton vanLeeuwenhoek– Looked at living things under a microscope
The Cell Theory
• All living things are made up of cells.• Cells are the basic unit of structure and
function in living things.• New cells are produced from existing cells.
Important Cell Terms
• Nucleus: Membrane-bound organelle that holds the genetic material in eukaryotes
• Organelle: “tiny organs”– Specialized structures inside cells
• Cytoplasm: fluid-like substance inside all cells
Cell Types• Prokaryotes • Eukaryotes
Prokaryotes
• Small (0.1 μm – 10 μm)• Genetic material is not in a nucleus– DNA is in the cytoplasm
• Unicellular organisms (live alone)• Example: bacteria
Eukaryotes
• Larger than prokaryotes• Have nucleus and organelles• Can live alone (unicellular) or with other cells
(multicellular)• Two types: Plant and Animal

Organelles
• Centriole– Near nucleus– Help with cell
division
Cell Parts
• Intermediate Filaments• Microtubules– Cell shape– Cell organization
• Microfilaments
Organelles
• Lysosome– Small, filled with
enzymes– Break down, or
digest, lipids, carbohydrates and proteins
– Get rid of old cell parts
Organelles
• Mitochondria– “power house” of the
cell– convert food into
useable energy
Organelles
• Endoplasmic Reticulum– Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum• Synthesis of proteins (ribosomes
on the surface)
– Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum• Make enzymes that perform
special tasks (like making lipids and detoxification of drugs)
Organelles
• Ribsomes– Cellular “factory”– makes proteins
Organelles
• Flagella– Tail-like structure used for movement
• Cilia
Organelles
• Golgi apparatus– Modify, sort and
package proteins and other material from the ER
Organelles
• Nucleus– 3 parts:
• Nucleolus– Makes ribosomes
• Nuclear Envelope– Membrane around
the nucleus, contains nuclear pores
Cell Parts
• Cytoplasm– Fluid-like substance
between the nuclear envelope (which surrounds the nucleus) and the cell membrane
– Organelles are found floating in the cytoplasm
Cell Parts
• Cell membrane– In all cells– Barrier between outside
of cell and inside of cell– Regulates what enters
and leaves
Plant Cell
Plant Cell Organelle Name Function
A Cell Membrane
B Cytoplasm
C Nuclear Envelope
D Nucleolus
E Golgi Apparatus
F Vacuole
G Ribosome
H Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (Smooth ER)
I Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (Rough ER)
J Mitochondria
K Chloroplast
L Microtubules
M Cell Wall
Cell Parts
• Cell wall– ONLY in PLANT cells– Outside of cell
membrane– Thick, rigid barrier to
protect cells
Organelles
• Chloroplasts– Capture sunlight
to make energy for the cell
– ONLY in PLANT cells
Organelles
• Vacuole– Storage of water,
salts, carbohydrates and proteins
– Large in plant cells– Found in some
prokaryotes and animal cells
