  30. Discovery cont. • Robert Hooke  studies cork • Cells  monk’s rooms • Matthias Schleiden all plants are made of cells • Theodore Schwann  all animals are made of cells • Rudolph Virchow  cells arise from other cells

  31. Statements of cell theory • All organisms are made of one or more cells and their products • The cell is the basic unit of structure of organisms • All cells come from preexisting cells

  32. Exceptions to cell theory • The first cell • Simple organisms lack separations that divide their bodies into cells • Fungi and algae • Viruses • Mitochondria and chloroplasts divide on their own

  33. Electron microscopes • No light  beam of electrons • Magnifies up to 500,000 X

  34. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) • Scans surface of objects  3-D image

  35. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) • Can see internal structures

  36. Scanning tunneling microscope (STM) • Atoms on surface

  37. Cell types

  38. Prokaryotes Simple Lack internal structure No membrane-bound organelles Smallest organisms  bacteria

  39. Eukaryotes More complex Definite internal structure Presence of membrane-bound organelles

  40. The plasma membrane

  41. Maintains balance between internal and external conditions • Regulates entering and departing substances • Maintains cellular homeostasis

  42. Selectively permeable • Also known as semipermeable • Allows only certain molecules in or out • Water may move freely • Ions allowed in only at certain times

  43. Structure of the plasma membrane • Phospholipidbilayer • Lipids with phosphate groups (replace 1 fatty acid) • Fatty acid tails nonpolar avoid water • Water insoluble  dissolved substances can’t easily pass through • Inner portion of membrane

  44. Structure cont. • Phosphate heads polar  attracted to water • Cell can interact with watery environment • Edges of membrane

  45. Structure cont. • Cholesterol  stabilizes phospholipids • Prevents fatty acids from sticking together • Transport proteins  span membrane • Act as channels (doors) through membrane

  46. Structure cont. • Protein and carb identity markers • Extend from outer surface for communication • Proteins along inner surface attach membrane to internal support structures • Fluid mosaic model  phospholipids move within the membrane • Provides flexibility

  47. Eukaryotic cell structure

  48. Cellular boundaries • All cells have plasma membranes • Some also have cell walls • Rigid structure outside the membrane providing extra support and protection • Plant cells, fungi, some protists (unicellular) • Fibrous  made of cellulose • Porous  allows substances through arbitrarily

  49. Cellular boundaries cont. • Nucleus  control center • Contains blueprints for making proteins  chromatin (DNA) • Separated from cell by porous nuclear envelope • Nucleolus  located within nucleus • Site of ribosome production
