Section 7.1 Cell Discovery and Theory
State/Chapter Objectives • Identify the cellular organelles associated with major cell processes. (SPI 3210.1.1) • Distinguish between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. (SPI 3210.1.2 ) • Predict the movement of water and other molecules across selectively permeable membranes. (SPI 3210.1.7) • Compare and contrast active and passive transport. (SPI 3210.1.8)
Section 7.1 Objectives • Compare compound light microscopes with electron microscopes • Summarize the principles of the cell theory. • Differentiate between a prokaryotic and a eukaryotic cell. (SPI 3210.1.2)
cell cell theory plasma membrane organelle eukaryotic cell nucleus prokaryotic cell Section 7.1 Vocabulary You must be able to explain and use the following terms:
What is a living cell . . . . . . self-contained, self assembling, self adjusting, self perpetuating, isothermal mix of biomolecules, held in a 3-D conformation by weak non-covalent forces, which extract raw materials (precursors) and free energy from the surrounding environment and which shows great efficiency and economy of metabolic regulation and that maintains a dynamic steady state far from equilibrium and which can self-replicate using the informational molecule DNA.
CELL THEORY(1838) • All living things are made from one or more cells. • All cells come from other cells. • The cell is the smallest form of life. Theodor Schwann Matthias Schleiden
Microscopy Bright-Field (Compound) Light Microscope Use light rays focused by glass lenses.
Microscopy Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) Uses electrons passing through specimens; focused by magnets.
Microscopy Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) Uses electrons scanned across metal-coated specimen.
Multi-faceted eye - not seen since trilobites disappeared hundreds of millions of years ago - has been discovered in a tiny parasitic insect. (a) Xenos peckii with the raspberry-like eyes, (b) fruit fly with hundreds of lenses; and, at the same scale, (c) eye of X. peckii with fewer but larger eyelets, each surrounded by the brush-like microtrichia.

Basic Cell Types Prokaryotic Eukaryotic
Basic Cell Types Prokaryotic– Cells do not have a nucleus and most other organelles. Eukaryotic – Cells have a “true” nucleus surrounded by its own membrane.
Prokaryotic Characteristics • Strong Cell Wall • Rotating Flagella • Simple Interior Organization
Eukaryotic Cells Have a “true” nucleus and organelles surrounded by a cell membrane.
Organelle “Mini-organ” Part of a cell with specific job to do.
Section 7.1 Review • Explain the 3 principals of the cell theory. • Describe how microscopes aid the study of cells. • Compare and contrast animal cells and plant cells. • Distinguish between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
Organelle Plasma membrane Nucleus Cytoplasm Cell wall Prokaryotic cell Eukaryotic cell Section 7.1 Review Define the following terms:
Organelle – mini organ Plasma membrane – a thin outer covering which defines the boundary of the cell and regulates the traffic of chemicals between the cell and its surroundings. Nucleus – the part of the cell that houses its genetic material. Cytoplasm – the entire region of the cell between the nucleus and the plasma membrane. Cell wall - a strong wall outside the plasma membrane that protects the plant cell and maintains its shape. Prokaryotic cell – a cell lacking a membrane- bounded nucleus and most other organelles. Eukaryotic cell – a cell with a membrane-bounded nucleus and membrane-bounded organelles. Definitions
