Cell Function Review What you should have learned last year!
All Living Things Are Made of Cells • Unicellular: organisms made of only one cell • Protozoa, Ameba, Bacteria • Multicellular: Organisms made of more than • one cell • -Frogs, Trees, Flowers, & Us!
Organelles • Structures that perform cell functions • Endoplasmic Riticulum: transport • Ribosomes: protein • Golgi Bodies: manufacturing • Mitochondria: power house • Cell Membrane: protective covering Nucleus: Contains Genetic Material
Cell Theory 1850’s • Every Living Thing is Made of One or More Cells • Cells Carry Out the Functions Needed to Support Life • Cells Come from Other Living Things
Chapter 3.1: Cell Division;Pg.73 • “I CAN” • Explain How Genetic Material is Organized in Cells Vocabulary: DNA, Chromosomes, Mitosis
I. What is Genetic Material? • DNA: deoxyribonucleic acid molecules • Information necessary for cell growth and functions • James Watson & Francis Crick; 1953 • Two Strand Chemical molecule resembles a twisted ladder • Called a double helix
Four Base Pairs Do It All. Each bit of heredity Material (gene) is a series of Thousands or Millions of base pairs.
II. What is a Gene? • Packet or sequence of specific DNA molecules • Instructions that determine what the organism is, what it looks like, how it functions. • Genes determine everything about you • Heredity information or what you inherit from your parents
II. Chromosomes A. DNA “ladder” is organized, coiled and compacted into structures called chromosomes • Chromosomes are found in the cells nucleus • Humans have 23 chromosomes pairs (46) • Containing some 30,000 – 100,000 genes • (packets of information)
B. Number of chromosomes is species specific - Humans 23 pairs 46 total -Half from mother & half from father - Donkey’s have 31 pairs - Hedgehog’s have 44 pairs - Fruit Flies have just 4 - Corn has 20 pairs
III. We All Start As A Single Cell • Mother’s Single Egg Cell (stem cells)Turns into Trillions • Many cells specialize, like skin or muscle • Cell Division is How An organism Grows
B. Mitosis Cell Division • Each cell gets a full set of genetic information • Clone or an exact copy of itself • Skin cells make more skin cells
Section 3.3; Pg. 88Asexual & Sexual Reproduction “I CAN” • Explain How Sexual and Asexual Reproduction (cell division) Compare • Describe advantages & disadvantages Vocabulary: Sexual Reproduction, Asexual Reproduction, Binary Fission, Regeneration
Sexual Reproduction • Definition: The production of a new living organism by two parent organisms, with each parent contributing half of the genetic material of the offspring
Asexual Reproduction • Definition: The production of a new living organism genetically identical to itself without the contribution of genetic material from male and female parents, (Cloning)
Three Types • Binary Fission: Fission means to split. Makes two identical cells (mitosis) Bacteria reproducing
Disadvantages • Asexual: • A negative mutation can affect survivability • Too many offspring compete for same resources • Unfavorable living conditions can wipe out colony Sexual: - Two parents required - Slower reproductive rates - More complex process than asexual
Advantages • Asexual Reproduction: • Large numbers of individuals quickly • Energy is not required to find a mate • Species can withstand predation better • Sexual Reproduction: • -Genetic Diversity • -Natural Selection can occur • -Increase in ability of organism to adapt
