Why Are Cells So Small?

Cell remain small because they cannot efficiently import nutrients or export waste materials across their membranes when they get too large.

The Two Major Categories of Cells

• The countless cells on earth fall into two categories:

– Prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria

– Eukaryotic cells, such as protist, fungal, plant, or animal cells

Cell (Plasma) Membrane and Internal Membranes• The plasma membrane separates the living cell from its nonliving

surroundings and regulates molecular traffic

Animal cells have an extracellular matrix outside of their cells that hold them together in tissues and protects and supports them.

Focus on the Nucleus and Ribosomes

The Nucleus: Information Storage and Control of the Cell

• The nucleus is the library of the cell.

• Chromosomes (books) within the nucleus store instruc-tions on how to run the cell

Ribosomes Make Proteins Using Genetic Instructions

Copy of instructionsfrom the nucleus

The Endoplasmic Reticulum• A protein synthesis site for

exported proteins on the rough ER; acts as a “worktable” for ribosomes

• A routing system for delivery of proteins (subway system)

• A lipid synthesis factory in the smooth ER, including phospholipids for cell membrane

• Variations of endoplasmic reticulum include sarcoplasmic reticulum in muscles cells (to store Ca+2) and Nissl bodies (rough ER) in neurons.
