Chapter 8
A Tour of the Cell
How can we see cells?
Light microscope– Uses light and lenses to magnify
Electron microscope– Uses beam of electrons– Gives a 3-D picture
Not a flashcard.
Electron vs. Light
What can you see without a microscope?
Not a flashcard.
Here are some pictures of cellsView the size of cells
Not a flashcard.
Cell TypesCell Types
Bone Cell
Muscle Cell
Nerve Cell
Cartilage Cell
Blood Cell
Small IntestineCell

Discovery of the Cell
Made possible by the development of the microscope
Robert Hooke first used a microscope in 1665
Examined a thin slice of cork Found similar formations, “a great many little
boxes,” when looking at stems of trees, carrots, and ferns
Cells – named after the small rooms in which monks lived
Cork cells Not a flashcard.
Cell Theory
The 3 Parts to the Cell Theory:
All living things are composed of one or more cells
Cells are the basic units of life
All cells come from pre-existing cells
There are 2 types of cells
ProkaryoticExample: bacteria
EukaryoticExamples: plant & animal
Which is Bigger?
Bacteria Cell Animal Cell Plant Cell
Small Bigger Biggest
Not a flashcard.
Cell Type: Prokaryotic
No true nucleus No organelles
with membranes
Cell Type: Eukaryotic
Has at least 1 true nucleus
Has organelles with membranes
Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes
Why aren’t cells large?
As cell size , the surface area to volume ratio
Rates of chemical exchange may then be inadequate for cell size
Cell size, therefore, remains small
Cell Size

Surface Area to Volume RatioNot a flashcard.
Unicellular vs. Multicellular
UnicellularMade of only ONE cell
or MulticellularMade of more than one cell
Organelles
There are 16 organelles I would like you to know.
Be able to label each of them and describe their functions.
Not a flashcard.
Cell Wall
Not in animal cells
Provides: protection shape support
Cell Membrane
Made of phospholipids Selectively permeable Maintains homeostasis
The Cell Membrane…
Controls what enters and leaves the cell
Not a flashcard.
Cytoplasm
Clear fluid that surrounds the organelles
Jelly-like
The Cytoskeleton
Fibrous network in cytoplasm Provides support and maintains shape Made of microtubules
Nucleus
The cell’s control center
Contains DNA RNA is made here
Nucleolus
Inside the nucleus
Produces ribosomes
Mitochondria
Makes energy The more
mitochondria, the more energy the cell can produce! (muscle cells)
Endoplasmic Reticulum
A folded membrane attached to the nucleus
‘Intra-cellular highway’
Ribosomes
Small and ‘circular’ Assembles amino acids to make proteins
Vessicles
Small packages that transport proteins from the ER to the Golgi apparatus
Golgi Apparatus
Flattened sacs Packages proteins and lipids to leave the cell
Lysosomes
sacs of enzymes digests particles
Vacuoles
Stores food, enzymes, and waste
Plants: only 1 LARGE
Chloroplasts
Found only in plants Contains chlorophyll (green) Converts sunlight to useable energy
Elodea Cells Not a flashcard.
Centrioles
Used in cell replication; only in animal cells Pulls chromosomes apart
Cilia vs. Flagella
Locomotive appendages:
Cilia is short and hairlike (large #’s)
Flagella is longer and whiplike (small #’s)
Real Pictures of Cilia
Cilia

It’s all connected! Not a flashcard.
Difference Between Plant & Animal Cells
Plant Cells Have: A Cell wall Chloroplasts Larger vacuole No centrioles
A Plant Cell Not a flashcard.
A Real Plant Cell Not a flashcard.
Another Plant Cell
Important Info!
Not a flashcard.
An Animal Cell Not a flashcard.
Another Animal Cell Not a flashcard.
Cell Cheer!
The End!
See you soon!
