  1. Cytology – the study of cells (pg. ??) Cells are alive

  2. Day 1

  3. Cells Alive – www.cellsalive.com • BrainPOP –www.brainpop.com username: edhpop password: edhpop1 Check out these videos: - Cells - Cell specialization

  4. Cell Theory The Cell Theory states that: 1. All living things are composed of a cell or cells. 2. Cells are the basic (smallest) unit of life. 3. All cells come from preexisting cells. 4. Cells contain hereditary information which is passed from cell to cell during cell division 5. All cells are basically the same in chemical composition 6. All energy flow of life occurs within cells

  5. Microscopes “Seeing is Believing” • The light microscope or compound microscope allows us magnify objects up to 1000 times! • Female egg cell is the largest cell in the body & can be seen without a microscope!

  6. A microscope can be used to view animal and plant cells. Do you see any visible organelles? Plant cells Magnification 10X 40 = 400X Animal cells Magnification 10X 40 = 400X

  7. Parts of a Microscope Match the names of microscope parts with the correct letter from the microscope diagram. _____1 Arm _____2 Body Tube _____3 Base _____4 Coarse Adjustment Knob _____5 Diaphragm _____6 Fine Adjustment Knob _____7 Light Source _____8 Objective (Lenses) _____9 Ocular Lens (Eyepiece) _____10 Revolving Nosepiece _____11 Stage _____12 Stage Clips

  8. Observation of Plant Cells Materials: Forceps, Microscope, Microscope Slide, Onion, Scalpel Onion Cells Procedure 1. Using a scalpel and forceps, remove a small piece of ONE LAYER of onion skin off of an onion and place it on a microscope slide. Avoid wrinkling the specimen. 2. View the onion cells on low power. Center the group of onion cells in field of vision. 3. View the onion cells on medium power. Only use the fine adjustment knob. If needed, center cells in field of view. 4. Use colored pencils to draw what you see. Label your drawing. Labels should include the name of the specimen, magnification level, and cell parts that can be seen. 5. Observe onion cells on high power. Only use the fine adjustment knob. As you focus through the group of cells you might see different layers of cells.

  9. Day 2

  10. 2 major types of cells Prokaryotic cell • No nucleus • No membrane-bound organelles • Circular chromosome • Eubacteria Kingdom • Archeabacteria Kingdom Eukaryotic cell • Have nucleus • Membrane-bound organelles • Evolved - like u & me • Linear chromosomes • Protista Kingdom • Fungus Kingdom • Plant Kingdom • Animal Kingdom

  11. Organelles • Very small size, can only be viewed with a microscope. • Have specific functions. • Found throughout cytoplasm in eukaryotic cells.

  12. Cell Structures and Functions

  13. Organelles Found in Cells • Endoplasmic reticulum (rough & smooth) – canals for movement • Golgi Bodies – wrap & export proteins • Nucleolus – makes ribosomes • Lysosomes – digests & gets rid of wastes • Ribosomes – makes proteins

  14. Golgi Bodies • Stacks of flattened sacs • Have a shipping side & a receiving side • Receive & modify proteins made by ER • Transport vesicles with modified proteins pinch off the ends Transport vesicle

  15. Lysosome • Contain digestive enzymes • Break down food and worn out cell parts for cells • Programmed for cell death (lyse & release enzymes to break down & recycle cell parts)

  16. Nucleolus • Cell may have 1 to 3 nucleoli • Inside nucleus • Disappears when cell divides • Makes ribosomes that make proteins

  17. Smooth & Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum • Smooth ER lacks ribosomes & makes proteins USED In the cell • Rough ER has ribosomes on its surface & makes proteins to EXPORT

  18. Mitochondrion( mitochondria ) Cell Powerhouse • Site of Cellular respiration • Active cells like muscles have more of these • Burn sugars to produce energy ATP

  19. Cell membrane Surrounding the Cell • Lies immediately against the cell wall in plant cells • Made of protein and phospholipids • Selectively permeable

  20. Cell or Plasma Membrane Cell membrane • Living layer • Controls the movement of materials into and out of the cell • Selectively permeable

  21. Cytoplasm Cytoplasm of a Cell • Jelly-like substance enclosed by cell membrane • Provides a medium for chemical reactions to take place

  22. Nucleus/Inner membrane Nucleus • Each cell has fixed number of chromosomes that carry genes • Genes control cell characteristics

  23. Cell wall Plant Cell • Made of cellulose which forms very thin fibers • Strong and rigid

  24. Stations lab activity

  25. Station 1: Label Prokaryotic Cell - Bacteria All bacteria Ribosomes Label the 6 most important organelles!

  26. Station 2: Label Eukaryotic Cell - Plant Label the 13 most important organelles!

  27. Station 3: Label Eukaryotic cell - Animal Label the 13 most important organelles!

  28. Station 4: Create a Venn Diagram on LEFT PAGE to show organelles in common and organelles unique to each.

  29. Bacteria Cell

  30. Example Venn Diagram Animal Plant Unique Organelles Unique Organelles Shared organelles Bacteria

  31. Study your labeled cells – Quiz to follow!

  32. Quiz

  33. Quiz: • What kind of cell is cell A? • What kind of cell is cell B? • What type of cells are both A and B?

  34. Answers to quiz • Cell wall • Cell membrane • Mitochondrion • Vacuole • Golgi apparatus • Cytoplasm • Nuclear membrane • Nucleolus • Nucleus • Chromatin • Rough endoplasmic reticulum • Chloroplast • Centriole • Lysosome • Plant • Animal • Eukaryotic
