History
• 1600’s Anton Van Leeuwenhoek - first to view
nature w/microscope
• 1665 Robert Hooke - Coined term ‘cells’
• 1838 Matthias Schleiden - ‘All plants are made of
cells’
• 1839 Theodor Schwann - ‘All animals are made
of cells’
• 1855 Rudolf Virchow - ‘All cells come from preexisting cells’
Cell Theory
• Schleiden and Schwann 1840.
• All living things are made of cells.
• New cells are produced from existing
cells.
• Cells are the basic units of structure and
function of all living things.
Two types of cells.
• Prokaryotic cells make up prokaryotes.
• Eukaryotic cells make up eukaryotes.
• Prokaryotes: No nucleus, genetic material in
cytoplasm, only organelle = ribosomes, smaller,
simpler, unicellular evolutionarily more ancient
• Eukaryotes: Have nucleus, larger, more complex,
more organelles, evolutionarily more modern.
Basic Cell Structures
• Most prokaryotes (bacteria) difficult to see
with light microscope
• All cells have cell membrane, cytoplasm,
genetic material and ribosomes
• Presence of other cells structures
(organelles) varies
Describing Cell Structures
• Include:
– Structure: describes the shape and smaller
component parts of the organelle
– Location: Nucleus, cytoplasm or cell
membrane, sometimes more specific
– Function: what does it do and how does it do
it
Cell Membrane
• Is a phospholipid bilayer with some
proteins & carbohydrates associated
with it.
• Integral proteins form channels &
pumps to pass substances across the
membrane.
• Represented by the “Fluid Mosaic
Model”.
Cell Membrane Picture
Cell Membrane Functions
• Controls what goes in and out of the
cell.
• Proteins are unique within species and
individuals and therefore serves as a
form of cellular identification.
• Encloses cell contents and separates
from the extracellular space.
• Support & Protection?
Cytoplasm
• A watery gel in which all the organelles
reside
• The site of multiple enzyme controlled
chemical reactions.
• Polar compounds go into solution while
non-polar compound remain suspended
Enzymatic Regulation of Cells
•
•
•
•
Enzymes are biological catalysts.
Enzymes are proteins
Speed up the rate of chemical reactions
Enzyme Action Effected By:
– pH
– Temperature
– concentration
Cell Wall
• When present is exterior to the cell
membrane.
• Made primarily of cellulose and provides
significant support and protection to the
cell.
• Not present in animal cells.
Cell Wall Picture
Nucleus
• Spherical shape which can be seen with
an ordinary light microscope.
• Contains nucleolus & chromatin
• Controls all cell functions by controlling
protein synthesis and hereditary blueprint.
• Surrounded by a nuclear envelope - a
double membrane layer with pores.
Nucleus
• Nucleolus - a dense area where
ribosome production begins.
• Contains DNA bound to histone
proteins. The complex is called both
chromatin and chromosomes depending
on the stage of the cell cycle and the
function it is performing.

centrioles in a cell.

spindle.

Part 2
Movement Across the Cell Membrane
• The cell membrane is a selectively permeable (semi-permeable) membrane.
• Many large molecules cannot cross.
• Many charged molecules cannot cross.
• Some non-lipid soluble molecules cannot
cross.
Movement Across the Cell Membrane
• Active Transport Mechanisms
– Require energy (A.T.P.)
– Move against a concentration gradient
• Passive Transport Mechanisms
– Do not require energy
– Moving with a concentration gradient
Movement Across the Cell Membrane
• Active Transport Mechanisms
– Endocytosis
• Phagocytosis - cell eating or engulfing solids
• Pinocytosis - cell drinking or engulfing liquid
– Exocytosis
– Protein Pumps
• Passive Transport Mechanisms
– Diffusion
– Osmosis
– Facilitated Diffusion
Movement Across the Cell Membrane
• Diffusion - driven by the movement of
particles in a gas or liquid state from an area
of higher concentration to an area of lower
concentration
• Osmosis - diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane
• Facilitated Diffusion - movement of particles
down the concentration gradient with the help
of integral proteins in the cell membrane
Tonicity
• Isotonic - an equal concentration of
solutes both in and outside a cell
• Hypertonic - a solution with a greater
concentration of solutes in relation to
another
• Hypotonic - a solution with a lower
concentration of solutes in relation to
another
Tonicity in Cells
• Hypertonic - term used when the extracellular
solute concentration is greater than the cell
resulting in movement of water out of the cell
causing cell shrinkage or crenation
• Hypotonic - term used when the extracellular
solute concentration is less than the cell
resulting in movement of water into the cell
causing cell swelling
Fluid Balance - Homeostasis
• All living things function best in a narrow
range of conditions.
• Living things have mechanisms to
maintain a stable internal environment
• Examples: temperature, pH, water
content
• All living things need water
Water Balance
• In plants, water balance is often
controlled by: stoma, waxy cuticle,
shape, size
• In complex organisms like humans
water balance is primarily influenced by
water intake versus water loss but,
there are several regulating
mechanisms that control this balance.
Water Regulation
• Sweating, respiration, excretion = loss
• Hypothalamus detects [H2O] in the blood.
• Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) released and
kidneys decrease water removal from the
blood & loss in urine.
• Thirst mechanism
• Increased [H2O] in blood decreases [ADH]
and water removal from blood by kidneys
increases again. (Negative Feedback Loop)
Specialized Cell Types
• Differentiated cells contribute to the function
of the organism as a whole.
• Unicellular organisms must perform all the
activities associated with life
• Multicellular organisms are more complex &
interdependent because individual cells
perform only specific functions for the good of
the whole organism.
Examples of Specialized Cells
• Nerve Cells (Neurons) - carry messages
in the form of an electrochemical signal
• Pancreas Cells - some secrete insulin
and some secrete peptidase, amylase
or lipase
• RBC - have hemoglobin to carry oxygen
