Chapter 4 - Cell Structure and Function

1. Chapter 4 - Cell Structure and Function The printed out notes are more detailed than these slides, you are expected to read the chapter and your notes - anything is fair game on the test, but the cell chapter is largely review.

2. Quick: Grab some scratch paper and quickly discuss with your partner what you remember from freshman biology about the cell.

3. Early Contributions Hooke Leeuwenhoek Schleiden Schwann Virchow

4. The Cell Theory 1. Every living organism is made of one or more cells. 2. The cell is the basic unit of structure and function. It is the smallest unit that can perform life functions. 3. All cells arise from pre-existing cells. *Why is the Cell Theory called a Theory and not a Fact?

6. Figure 4.3

7. Single Cheek Cell - at different illuminations

8. ALL CELLS HAVE: 1. Cell Membrane          a)  Phospholipid Bilayer  (double layer)        b)  Proteins         c) Carbohydrates

9. 3. Cytoplasm  (cytosol) 2.  Genetic Material ORGANELLES float within cytoplasm and perform specific functions

10. Prokaryote vs Eukaryote Cells Endosymbiosis theory: All organelles seem to share many properties with bacteria. Lynn Margulis proposed endosymbiont hypothesis: that organelles derived from ancient colonization of large bacteria (became the eukaryotic cell) by smaller bacteria (became the mitochondria, chloroplast, etc.) Symbiosis = "living together". *Mitochondria & Chloroplasts have their own DNA Animation at Microbiological Concepts

11. Prokaryote Cells

13. Eukaryotes

14. Quick Recap....... 1.  What are the two main types of cells? 2.  Which one is larger?   3.   Which one does not have a membrane bound nucleus? 4.  What are the three main parts of the cell (that all cells have)? 5.  What are the 3 components of the cell theory? 6.  What theory explains how eukaryotes evolved?

15. It may seem that in these slides there were quite a few "more on this later.." notes.... That's because cell biology is a huge area, and is divided into many branches that biologists specialize in... 1)  Oncology 2)  Microbiology 3)  Genetics  4)  Paleobiology 5) Pathology       ............to name a few Here's an older video that compares prokaryotes and eukaryotes and discusses how cells evolved, film by the Phoenix Learning Group  (17 minutes) And a shorter video on the main parts of The Cell

16. The Parts of the Cell

17. I am a reticulated python. Ask me what I have to do with the endoplasmic reticulum.

18. Figure 4.10a

19. The Golgi Apparatus is a Delivery System Proteins are packaged as vesicles and exported from the cell.

20. Ribosomes - Sites of Protein Synthesis DNA is converted to RNA that leaves the nucleus and instructs the ribosomes what amino acids to make chains of amino acids = a protein Hey! Remember enzymes?

21. Lysosomes - Intracellular Digestion Centers TAY-SACHS disease – What do lysosomes have to do with this deadly disease? Article and Video on Tay Sachs

23. Hey....remember enzymes? The Peroxisome Found in virtually all plant and animal cells, this organelle plays a critical role in normal cell functioning. In human cells, peroxisomes house some sixty enzymes, involved in such metabolic processes as bile acid, cholesterol, and plasmalogen biosynthesis, as well as ß-oxidation  As a by-product of its normal function, and the reason the organelle is so named, the peroxisome produces hydrogen peroxide. To neutralize this potentially toxic compound, a normally functioning peroxisome imports the hydrogen peroxide-metabolizing enzyme catalase, from the cytosol of the cell. Catalase converts hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen

24. What happens if your mitochondria don’t work? Mitochondrial Disease Video Why is mitochondrial disease so devastating to children? Consider the mitochondria have their own DNA separate from the parental DNA. How could you cure this disease?

25. Focus on Plant Cells

26. Cytoskeleton How do cells maintain their shape? How do they move? - pseudopod - cilia - flagella

27. Pseudopod – extensions of the cell that allow for movement (ameba), depend on actin filaments Cilia (hair) & Flagella (whip) --function in movement-- 9+ 2 Arrangement of microtubules

28. Practice Drawing Plant and Animal Cells

29. What is this structure? 

30. 1.  What part of the cell produces vesicles for export? 2.  What part of the cell makes proteins? 3.  What part of the cell produces ATP? 4.  What part of the cell transports materials throughout the cytoplasm? 5.  What part of the cell has a cis and a trans face?   Mini Quiz

33. What is this structure? 

35. Find the: a.  Nucleolus b.  Centriole c.  Vesicle d.  Smooth ER e.  Lysosome

37. Show, Don't Tell Each person will get  a cell concept .   For your concept, design a picture that goes with it and a GESTURE for the idea.   Be prepared to share your pictures and gestures with the class.   Your classmates will use your picture and your gesture to guess what your concept was.  It’s like playing a twisted form of charades! You should be able to draw your picture on the fly, on the board, but have a plan in place before you go up there.
