Cells:

The Basic Units of Life


How big is a cell?

• http://www.cellsalive.com/howbig.htm
The Cell Theory

1. All organisms are made of cells.


2. The cell is the basic unit of life in all
living things.
3. All cells come from existing cells.

THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT SHOWS THAT


ALL LIVING THINGS SHARE A SIMILAR
STRUCTURE
Two Types of Cells

All cells, whether they are prokaryotic or eukaryotic, have


some common features
Organelles

Organelles are structures that enable the cell


to live, grow and reproduce.
Two Types of Cells

Prokaryotic Cells:
• Have no membrane
covered nucleus
• Have no membrane -
covered organelles
• Have circular DNA
• Are bacteria
Two Types of Cells
Eukaryotic Cells:
• Have a nucleus
• Have a membrane -
covered organelles
• Have linear DNA
• Are all other cells
Organelles

Organelles are structures that enable the cell


to live, grow and reproduce.
Cell Membrane

• Outer layer of cell


• Allows nutrients
into the cell and
wastes outside of
the cell

“Gate into the


city” Cell Membrane
Cytoplasm

• Cytoplasm a
jelly-like fluid
contained in the
cell that holds
the organelles.
The Nucleus
DNA • The control
center of the cell
• Contains the
Cell’s DNA

Nucleolus

Nuclear Membrane
“Mayor’s office”
Mitochondria
Outer Membrane

• Power center of
cell
• Provides the
energy the cell
needs to move,
divide, etc.
Inner Membrane

“Electric company
of the cell”
Ribosomes

• Site where
proteins are
made
• Cell parts are
made of
proteins “Factories of the
cell”
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Transportation
system of cell
• Rough ER-
ribosome's attached
• Smooth ER- no
ribosome's
Ribosomes

“Roadways of the cell”


Golgi Complex
• Packaging house of
cell
• Packages,
processes, and
ships out the stuff
the cell makes

“UPS of the cell”


Lysosomes
• Digests food
particles and cell
parts
– “Garbage men”
• Protects cell by
digesting foreign
invaders
– “Police men
Vacuole
• Stores water, food
Vacuole
& wastes

Vacuole is largest
organelle in plant
cell
Cell Wall

• Found only in plant


cells

• Protects and
supports the cell
Chloroplasts
• Found only in plant
cells
• Contains chlorophyll
(makes plants green)
• Where
photosynthesis
takes place
Plant or Animal Cell?
Found in Plant and Animal cells: Found only in Plant Cells:

• Nucleus • Chloroplasts
• Golgi Complex
• Mitochondrion • Cell Wall
• Lyosomes
• Endoplasmic
Reticulum
• Cell Membrane
• Ribosomes
• Vacuoles
