The Cell • Structural & functional unit of living organisms The Cell Eukaryotic (with membrane bound nucleus) Prokarotic (without membrane bound nucleus)
A Typical Animal Cell • Nucleus • Nucleolus • Mitochondria • Endoplasmic Reticulum • Golgi Apparatus • Peroxisomes • Lysosomes
A Typical Plant Cell • In addition to what an animal cell contains: • Cell Wall • Chloroplast • Amyloplast • Vacuole • Plasmodesmata • Centrioles
5 Kingdom Classification (old) • Monera (Prokaryota)- Bacteria • Protista- Small unicellular organisms • Plantae • Animalia • Fungi
Cells Studied in the lab • Oscillatoria • Gloeocapsa • Lactobacillus • Amoeba • Paramecium • Human Cheek Epithelium • Onion Peel • Eloeda
Directives for Naming Organisms • The first name is always the Genus name • The second name is always the species name • The first letter of the first name is always in upper case & the first letter of the species name is always in the lower case • The name is written in italics or alternatively underlined • e.g. Amoeba proteus OR Amoebaproteus
Lactobacillus • Rod shaped • In yogurt • Lives on lactose (milk sugar)
Oscillatoria Identifying Characteristics • Long, green filaments • Chloroplasts arranged along periphery
Gloeocapsa Identifying Characteristics • Loosely arranged colony of cells • Usually about 6-12 cells in one bundle • Cells are green and round • Colony covered by gelatinous sheath
Amoeba Identifying Characteristics • Irregular shape • Pseudopodia (false feet): cytoplasmic extensions that aid in locomotion & phagocytosis (cell eating) • Note: Contractile vacuole is NOT an identifying characteristic peculiar to Amoeba
Paramecium Identifying Characteristics • Slipper shaped • Food gullet • Macronucleus & micronucleus • Anterior & posterior contractile vacuole • Cilia
