PA State Standards
What is a cell?
• The basic unit of structure and function of
all living things.
• The basic building block of all organisms.
What are organelles?
• Humans have organs
• Cells contain
organelles
• These organelles are
like tiny organs inside
a cell.
• For example: A
nucleus acts like the
brain of the cell.
Nucleus
History
• Robert Hooke – first
to discover cells.
• Looking at Cork under
the microscope.
History
• Schleiden
• Botanist who said all
plants are made of
cells.
History
• Schwann
• Zoologist who said all
animals are made of
cells
History
• Virchow
• All living cells come
only from other living
cells.
Cell Theory
• All living things are made up of cells
• Cells are the basic units of structure and
function of living things
• Living cells come only from other living
cells.
What’s the difference anyway?
• Theory
– Tested and based on
results, develop an
idea that could explain
the problem.
– Can be proven true or
false by others
– Theory of Evolution,
the BIG Bang Theory
Law
Doesn’t need to be
tested, because we
KNOW it to be true
Each time, it has the
same outcome
The law of gravity

Basic Structures of a cell
• All cells share certain
structures that make them
a cell
• All cells must contain at
least 3 basic structures to
be considered a living cell
– Cell membrane
– Ribosomes (and DNA)
– Cytoplasm
Cell Membrane:
The Cell1. ALL CELLS
2. Separates the cell from the
outside environment
3. The membrane is what makes
a cell… a cell.
Ribosomes:
The Cell1. ALL CELLS
2. Found in the
cytoplasm & on E.R.
3. Proteins are made here
from DNA instructions to
carry out the functions of life
Cytoplasm:
The Cell1. ALL CELLS
2. The ENVIRONMENT of the
cell. All organelles float in it
TWO TYPES OF CELLS
• PROKARYOTES – DO NOT contain a
NUCLEUS
• EUKARYOTES – DO CONTAIN A
NUCLEUS
Nucleus:
The Cell1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. Center of the cell
3.
Control Center
of the cell
Nuclear Membrane:
The Cell1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. Surrounds Nucleus
3. Allows movement in &
out of the nucleus
Chromosomes/ Chromatin:
The Cell1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. Found In pairs depending
on type of species
3. Packages of Genetic
Information (DNA)
Cellular Movement & Transport
• Cells either move
themselves or transport
materials in and out of
their membrane to keep a
controlled environment for
life (homeostasis)
• Cells may use extensions
of their membrane or extra
structure attached to it to
move themselves around
Cell Membrane:
The Cell1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. Controls the movement of
material into & out of the cell
3. Selectively Permeable – chooses
what enters and exits the cell
Cell transport - Diffusion
• Diffusion
– the process by which
molecules spread from
areas of high
concentration, to areas
of low concentration
– Does not require Energy;
happens naturally
• Equilibrium
– when the molecules are
even throughout a space
Osmosis
• 75 % of cells is water
– the diffusion of water (across
a membrane)
– Water will move in the
direction towards where there
is a high concentration of
solute (and hence a lower
concentration of water)
– Does not require Energy;
happens naturally
Active Transport
• Requires Energy (ATP) to
carry an object into the cell.
• Carry molecules from low
conc. to high conc.
• Uses Carrier Proteins act
like doors to get the object
into the cell.
• Used to carry minerals into
cell (Na, K, Ca)
Endocytosis and Exocytosis
Endo = In
Exo = Out
Sections of the membrane “swallow” substances
and bring them into or out of the cell
Cellular Metabolism & Energy
• Cellular Respiration
• Process where organisms
use food to make usable
energy for cells
• Step 1: Energy in the form
of sugar is digested by the
mitochondria
• Step 2: Oxygen helps
Energy captured to be
changed into ATP for
cellular use
The CellMitochondria:
1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. RESPIRATION occurs
here (use of oxygen to break
down food particles for
energy)
3. Makes ENERGY for the cell.
2 types of Cellular Respiration
• Aerobic Respiration
• Requires Food & Oxygen
• Water and CO2 are waste
products
• Food + Oxygen
CO2 + Water + ATP
• Energy not used is stored
as fat
2 Types of Cellular Respiration
• Anaerobic Respiration
(Fermentation)
• Does not require Oxygen
(anaerobic)
• Yeast cells used to make
bread
• Creates CO2 (makes bread
rise) , alcohol (for beer,
wine, champagne)
The Cell
Vacuoles:
1. In Plants (LARGE) &
Animal
2. Floating in the cytoplasm
3.
FOOD, WATER, and
Waste are STORED here
The Cell
Lysosomes:
1. Mostly Animal
2. Floating in the cytoplasm
3.
Digests food or Recycles
old or dead cell parts
Cellular Response
• Protein Production
• Process where organisms use the instructions in DNA to make
proteins for specific jobs in or outside the cell
• Step 1: DNA is translated into a protein by the ribosomes
• Step 2: Proteins are processed and transported in the ER and
packaged in movable vacuoles called vessicles and shipped to
needed locations inside/outside the cell by the golgi bodies.
Ribosomes:
The Cell1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. Found in the
cytoplasm & on E.R.
3.
Proteins are made here
Using instructions from DNA
Endoplasmic Reticulum
(E.R.):
The Cell
1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. Found around the nucleus
and throughout the cytoplasm
3. Transports materials in the cell
(TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM)
Golgi bodies:
The Cell
1. Animal & Plant Cells
2. Floating in Cytoplasm
3. Package & Ships cell materials
Cellular Reproduction & Growth
• The process of cell reproduction is called Mitosis
• Process where cells copy the instructions in DNA to make
another cell with identical properties
• Step 1: DNA is copied to give new cell genetic instructions
• Step 2: Cells are pulled apart with the help of centrioles to
make two copies of a cell
Mitosis
• In order for an
organism to grow,
the cells must
divide and create
more cells to add to
the organism
• Each new cell is
called a daughter
cell.
Major differences between a
plant and animal cell
• Plant cells have a cell
wall – animal cells do
not.
• Plant cells have
chloroplasts – animal
cells do not
• Plant cells have a
much larger vacuole
than animal cells
Chloroplast:
The Cell
1. Plant Cells
2. Floating in Cytoplasm
3. Makes food for cell
(Photosynthesis – captures
ENERGY IN SUNLIGHT)
4. Contains CHLOROPHYLL
To absorb sunlight
The Cell
Cell Wall:
1. Plant Cells – NOT IN
ANIMALS!!
2. Gives plant cells its shape
3.
STRONG to provide
Structure and support
Cellular Metabolism & Energy
• Photosynthesis
• Process where plants use
light for food
• Step 1: Energy in the form
of sunlight is captured by
the chlorophyll in the
chloroplast
• Step 2: Energy captured
is changed into food for
plant
Photosynthesis
• Sunlight + CO2 +
Water
Glucose (food) + O2
REMEMBER – PLANTS
STILL COMPLETE
RESPIRATION!
