Definition of Cell Cells are membrane-covered structures that contain all of the materials necessary for life. They are the building blocks of all living things. *BRAIN POP - CELLS
Cell Theory • Every living thing is made up of cells. • Cells carry out the functions needed to support life. • Cells come only from other preexisting cells through cell division.
Examples of Cells Amoeba Proteus Plant Stem Bacteria Red Blood Cell Nerve Cell
Two Types of Cells Prokaryotic Eukaryotic
Prokaryotic • Do not have a nucleus and other membrane covered organelles. • All Archaea and Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms
Eukaryotic • Eukaryotes – are organisms that contain eukaryotic cells (cells that have a nucleus and other membrane covered organelles) • Have a nucleus and other membrane covered organelles • Protist, Fungi, Plants, and Animals are Eukaryotic Organisms Animal Plant
Cell Parts/Organelles Found in Both Animal and Plant Cells!!! *BRAIN POP - CELL ORGANELLES
Nucleus(Plant and Animal Cells) • Membrane-covered organelle that contains DNA and controls all activities within the cell • DNA – heredity material that controls all the activities of a cell • Nucleus Video Clip
Cell Membrane(Plant and Animal Cells) • Outer layer of cell that allows needed materials to enter and leave a cell • Cytoplasm Video Clip
Cytoplasm (Plant and Animal Cells) • Cellular fluid surrounding a cell’s organelles • Cytoplasm Video Clip
Ribosome (Plant and Animal Cells) • A small organelle in which proteins are made from amino acids
Mitochondria (Plant and Animal Cells) • A cell organelle in which food molecules are broken down to make ATP for the cell (ENERGY) • POWER HOUSE • Mitochondria Video Clip
Lysosome (Plant and Animal Cells) • Digest food particles, waste, cell parts and foreign invaders • Lysosome Video Clip http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Cell Parts/Organelles Found Only in Plant Cells Only!!!
Cell Wall(Plant Cells) • A structure found in plant cells that surrounds the cell and provides strength and support for the cell • Cell Wall and Vacuole Video Clip
Large Vacuole(Plant Cells) • A large structure found in plant cells that stores water and other liquids
Chloroplast(Plant Cells) • An organelle found in plants and algae cells where photosynthesis occurs • Contains chlorophyll – a green pigment in chloroplast that absorbs light energy for photosynthesis • Photosynthesis – the process by which plants capture light energy from the sun and convert it into sugar (glucose) • Chloroplasts and Photosynthesis Video Clip
Plants Take In - Carbon Dioxide + Water + Light Energy (Sun) Plants Make - Glucose (Food) Plants Release – Oxygen *Photosynthesis Brain Pop Photosynthesis
