Leeuwenhoek • made a simple microscope (mid 1600’s) • magnified 270X • Early microscope lenses made images larger but the image was not clear
Leeuwenhoek's Microscope A) a screw for adjusting the height of the object being examined B) a metal plate serving as the body C) a skewer to impale the object and rotate it D) the lens itself, which was spherical
CELL THEORY • A theory resulting from many scientists’ observations & conclusions
CELL THEORY1. The basic unit of life is the cell. (Hooke) • In 1665, an English scientist named Robert Hooke made an improved microscope and viewed thin slices of cork viewing plant cell walls • Hooke named what he saw "cells"
CELL THEORY2. All living things are made of 1 or more cells. • Matthias Schleiden(botanist studying plants) • Theodore Schwann(zoologist studying animals) stated that all living things were made of cells Schwann Schleiden
CELL THEORY3. All cells divide & come from oldcells. (Virchow) Virchow
MODERN MICROSCOPES • A microscope is simple or compound depending on how many lenses it contains • A lens makes an enlarged image & directs light towards you eye
A simple microscope has one lens • Similar to a magnifying glass • Magnificationis the change in apparent size produced by a microscope
COMPOUND MICROSCOPE • A compound microscope has multiple lenses • (eyepiece & objective lenses)
STEREOMICROSCOPE • creates a 3D image
TOTAL MAGNIFICATION • Powers of theeyepiece (10X) multiplied by objective lenses determine total magnification.
ELECTRON MICROSCOPES • More powerful; some can magnify up to 1,000,000X • Use a magnetic field in a vacuum to bend beams of electrons • Images must be photographed or produced electronically
ScanningElectron Microscope (SEM) Electron microscope image of a spider Electron microscope image of a fly foot • produces realistic 3D image • only the surface of specimen can be observed
TransmissionElectron Microscope (TEM) • produces 2D image of thinly sliced specimen • detailed cell parts (only inside a cell) can be observed
ScanningTunneling Microscope (STM) • able to show arrangement of atoms

Definition of Cell A cell is the smallest unit that is capable of performing life functions.

Two Types of Cells Prokaryotic Eukaryotic
Prokaryotic • Do not have structures surrounded by membranes • Few internal structures • One-celled organisms, Bacteria http://library.thinkquest.org/C004535/prokaryotic_cells.html
Eukaryotic • Contain organelles surrounded by membranes • Most living organisms Plant Animal http://library.thinkquest.org/C004535/eukaryotic_cells.html

Cell Parts Organelles
Cell Membrane • Outer membrane of cell that controls movement in and out of the cell • Double layer http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Cell Wall • Most commonly found in plant cells & bacteria • Supports & protects cells http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Nucleus • Directs cell activities • Separated from cytoplasm by nuclear membrane • Contains genetic material - DNA
Nuclear Membrane • Surrounds nucleus • Made of two layers • Openings allow material to enter and leave nucleus http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Chromosomes • In nucleus • Made of DNA • Contain instructions for traits & characteristics http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Nucleolus • Inside nucleus • Contains RNA to build proteins http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Cytoplasm • Gel-like mixture • Surrounded by cell membrane • Contains hereditary material
Endoplasmic Reticulum • Moves materials around in cell • Smooth type: lacks ribosomes • Rough type (pictured): ribosomes embedded in surface http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Ribosomes • Each cell contains thousands • Make proteins • Found on ER & floating throughout the cell http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Mitochondria • Produces energy through chemical reactions – breaking down fats & carbohydrates • Controls level of water and other materials in cell • Recycles and decomposes proteins, fats, and carbohydrates http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Golgi Bodies • Protein 'packaging plant' • Move materials within the cell • Move materials out of the cell http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Lysosome • Digestive 'plant' for proteins, fats, and carbohydrates • Transports undigested material to cell membrane for removal • Cell breaks down if lysosome explodes http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Vacuoles • Membrane-bound sacs for storage, digestion, and waste removal • Contains water solution • Help plants maintain shape http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
Chloroplast • Usually found in plant cells • Contains green chlorophyll • Where photosynthesis takes place http://library.thinkquest.org/12413/structures.html
