What do you know about cells?Q: How many of your cells die each
minute?A: About 300 million
Q: What are the largest and smallest cells in the human body?
A: The largest is the female egg (oocyte), the smallest is the male sperm. (it take about
175 000 to weigh as much as one egg)
What do cells need to do?
What do cells need to do? Intake and store nutrients Grow Respond to stimuli Exchange gases Remove waste material Reproduce

survive. We wouldn’t survive if they didn’t
Cell Theory
Cell Theory
Term “cell” was coined in 1665 by Robert Hooke when he looked at a slice of dried cork.
Cell Theory
Term “cell” was coined in 1665 by Robert Hooke when he looked at a slice of dried cork. He also observed that:
1. All living things are comprised of cells.2. Cells are the smallest “living” unit in an
organisms.3. Cells come from previously existing cells
This is called the Cell Theory
Cell Diversity
Lots of shapes and sizes
Typical Cell
Cell Organization
Cell Organization
The cell includes two basic parts:
1. Cell Membrane (outer covering of cell)
2. Cytoplasm Cytosol (fluid portion of the
cytoplasm) Organelles (cell “organs” or
functional parts)
Cell Membrane
Outer boundary of cell Comprised of two layers of lipid (fat) Regulates what goes in and out of
cell Proteins give the cell its unique
“personality” or function
Cell Membrane
Cytoplasm
Is comprised of:
1. Cytosol (fluid portion of the
cytoplasm)
2. Organelles (cell “organs” or
functional parts)
Organelles
Organelles
1. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) A network of membrane-bound
tunnels throughout the cytoplasm
ER
Rough ER
Smooth ER
Ribosomes
Particles attached to ER are ribosomes.
Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis within every cell.
Golgi Apparatus
Flattened membranes Involved in packaging and secretion
of proteins
Golgi Apparatus
Mitochondria
Bean shaped organelle where cellular respiration takes place.
Mitochondria
Bean shaped organelle where cellular respiration takes place.
Glucose + Oxygen > CO2 + Water + Energy
Nucleus
Nucleus
Control center of cell Contains DNA/chromosomes Genetic repository for ~ 35,000
genes Genes control the synthesis of
proteins in each cell. Red blood cells don’t have a nucleus. Skeletal muscle cells have multiple
nuclei.
Vacuole
Storage areas in cells Really big in plant cells, much
smaller in animal cells Usually called “vesicles” in animal
cells
Vacuole – plant cell
Vacuole – animal cell
Plant and Animal Cells
Organelles found in both plant and animal cells.
