The Cell • This unit will cover all the major living things on Earth • animals, plants, fungi, and microorganisms
The Cell • WHAT IS COMMON TO ALL THESE GROUPS? • body process • basic materials involved in metabolism (oxygen, food, H2O etc)
The History of the Cell • Histology: is the study of special forms of cells and their association and organs.
The History of the Cell • Histology is closely associated with Cytology. • Cytology: The study of cell structure.
The History of the Cell • Robert Hooke (1635-1703) • SCIENTIST • ASTRONOMER • ARCHEOLOGIST • PALAENTOLOGIST • PHILOSOPHER • ARCHITECT • WRITER......ARTIST.......TEACHER.......
The History of the Cell • Robert Hooke (1635-1703) • CORK!! • Believe to be the first person to coin the word “Cell”: • ...I could exceedingly plainly perceive it to be all perforated and porous, much like a Honey-comb, but that the pores of it were not regular....these pores, or cells,... (Micrographia) • He came to the word cell because his research findings reminded him of monks’ cells
The History of the Cell • Robert Hooke (1635-1703) • Interesting fact or rumor? • he famously fought Isaac Newton!!
The History of the Cell Robert Hooke’s Microscope
The Cell History • The specialized compartments of a cell, the organelles, are so small that it was impossible to study their structure until the electron microscope was developed in 1938.
How is it that we can see cell organelles? • Thanks to scientists! We were able to understand the structural organization of the organelles. • Who exactly?
How is it that we can see cell organelles? • Thanks to scientists! We were able to understand the structural organization of the organelles. • Who exactly? • The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 1974 was awarded jointly to Albert Claude, Christian de Duve and George E. Palade • They were awarded for their discoveries regarding the functional and structural organization of the cell organelles.

How many cells in your body? • 100 trillion cells divided into about 200 different types! • Our muscles are made of muscle cells • Our livers of liver cells • There are even very specialized types of cells that make the enamel for our teeth or the clear lenses in our eyes!
