  1. Unit 1: Chapter 1Matter and Energy For Life

  2. Cell Theory • All living organisms are composed of one or more cells • Cells are the basic units of structure and function in all organisms • All cells are derived (come from) pre-existing cells (biogenesis) • In a multicellular organism, the activity of the entire organism depends on the total activity of its independent cells.

  3. 12 Scientists and Development of the Cell Theory • For hundreds of years a debate raged amongst scientists, about the origin of living things. • The debate centered around two theories: • Abiogenesis • Biogenesis Onion skin cells Paramecium

  4. What is abiogenesis? • Abiogenesis is the idea that living organisms can arise from non-living matter. • It is also called Spontaneous Generation Thomas Huxley

  5. Examples of abiogenesis: • Appearances of mushrooms on logs • Maggots forming on rotting meat • Frogs and salamanders suddenly appearing on or in mud

  6. What scientists supported abiogenesis? 1. Aristotle (384-322 B.C.E.) classifies all organisms into 2 kingdoms: plants and animals. • He believed all living organisms can only arise from non-living matter.

  7. 2. John Needham (1713-1781) • He believed microorganisms appeared in a sterilized flask of meat broth

  8. He placed broth into a bottle, heated the bottle to kill anything inside, then sealed it. • Days later, he reported that life had been created from nonlife. • BUT! He did not heat the broth long enough to kill all the microbes.

  9. Biogenesis is the idea that living organisms can only come from other living things. What is biogenesis?

  10. Which scientists supported biogenesis? 3. Francesco Redi (1629-1697) • He made the first serious attack on abiogenesis. • He performed an experiment to show that maggots will not appear on rotting meat if flies are kept away.

  11. Francesco Redi’s Experiment • See page 8 in textbook http://www.sumanasinc.com/webcontent/animations/content/scientificmethod.html

  12. 4. Spallanzani (1729-1799) • He was skeptical of Needham’s experiment, so he did his own • He boiled the broth for a longer period of time and he kept one of the bottles sealed. • No life appeared in the sealed bottle

  13. 5. Louis Pasteur (1822-1895) • He ended the debate on abiogenesis using a swan neck flask • He designed an experiment to prove microbes do not just appear in sterilized meat broth. • Instead, these microbes actually come from the air. http://bcs.whfreeman.com/thelifewire/content/chp03/0302003.html

  15. Paradigm Shift • As a result of the debate over abiogenesis and biogenesis there was a change in the way that science viewed the “origins of life”. • The cell theory was developed Cell Theory Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dscY_2QQbKU

  16. Other Scientists that contributed to the development of the cell theory: 6. Robert Hooke (1665) using a primitive lenses to form a simple microscope, observes “empty room like apartments” in samples of once living tree bark and called it cells.

  17. 7. Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1667) designs more powerful microscopesand writes extensively about his observations of tiny living organisms.

  18. 8. Robert Brown (1831)observes a darker region in all cells near the center and named it the nucleus.

  19. 9. Mathias Jacob Schleiden (1838) writes, “All plants are made of cells”.

  20. 10. Theodor Schwann (1839) writes “All animals are made up of cells”.

  21. 11. Alexander Carl Henrich Braun (1845) wrote “the cell is the basic unit of life”.

  22. 12. Rudolph Virchow (1858) formulates the points of the cell theory.

  24. (*Important: please write!)Cell Theory • All living organisms are composed of one or more cells • Cells are the basic units of structure and function in all organisms • All cells are derived (come from) pre-existing cells (biogenesis) • In a multicellular organism, the activity of the entire organism depends on the total activity of its independent cells.
