Chapter 7-
Cell Structure & Function
I. Life is CellularA-The Discovery of the Cell• It was not until the _________ that
scientists began to use microscopes to observe organisms.
• In 1665 ____________used an early compound microscope to see tiny chambers in cork.He called these chambers cells after the tiny rooms in monasteries….we know these not to be empty now.
Mid-1600’sRobert Hooke
• About the same time in Holland________________used a single-lens microscope to look @ pond water,
Anton van Leeuwenhoek
• In 1838 Matthew Schleiden concluded plants were made of cells
• 1839 Theodore Schwann said all animals were made of cells
• 1855-Virchow said cells could only come from existing ones.
These 3 things compile_________________
– All living things composed of ___________– Cells are the basic units of
___________________of living things– New cells are produced from
______________________.

Existing cells
B-Exploring the Cell
• Florescent labels and light microscopy have been used to follow molecules through the cell.
• _________________,which scans cells w/a laser beam can make 3-d images of cells
• Video technology make it possible to watch cell growth , division and development
Confocal light microscopy
• Light makes it difficult to visualize tiny structures because it scatters/______________________allow things like proteins to be visualized (things as much as 1000 x smaller can be visualized….TEMS allow you to see specimens cut into ultra thin slices
Electron microscopes
•W/ a ______________specimens do not have to be cut to see 3-D images….both must be placed into a vacuum so air molecules do not scatter electrons
•1990’s-____________________________have revolutionalized visualization of surfaces and atoms have been observed…can be used in ordinary air and can show DNA structure

C .Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
• Cells typically range from _________micrometers,but some bacteria are .2 and some amoeba are 1000 micrometers
• All cells have 2 things in common:»cell membrane-a barrier»@ some point they contain_______
5-50 micrometers DNA
2 broad categories:
– _____________________________-genetic material is NOT contained in a nucleus/generally less complicated than other cells/carry out all cell activities…present day members are ________________.
Prokaryotes bacteria
• _____________________________-contain a nucleus w/ genetic material,generally larger,much diversity
Eukaryotes
Division of Labor
•A cell is made up of many parts with different functions that work together. Similarly, the parts of a computer work together to carry out different functions.•Working with a partner, answer the following questions.•1. What are some of the different parts of a computer? What are the functions of these computer parts?
•2. How do the functions of these computer parts correspond to the functions of certain cell parts?

Go to Section:
The Nucleus
• Contains nearly all the cell’s DNA• Codes for instructions to make proteins and
other molecules• Surrounded by nuclear envelope---has many
pores to allow material in and out• Contains chromatin—has DNA bound to
protein,usually spread throughout nucleus,but condenses during cell division to make CHROMOSOMES,containing genetic info
• Usually contain Nucleolus—assembly of ribosomes begin here.
Ribosomes
• Proteins are assembled here
• Made out of small particles of RNA and protein
• Found throughout cytoplasm
• Coded instructions from nucleus tell how to make proteins
• Cells active in protein synthesis have a lot of ribosomes
Endoplasmic Reticulum
• Site where lipid components of cell membrane are assembled,along w/ proteins and other materials exported from cell(those proteins are made there)
• Rough ER is involved in protein synthesis,because ribosomes are on it
• Newly made proteins leave ribosomes and insert on rough ER ,where they may be modified
• If cell makes a lot of protein ,there is much ER• Smooth ER may contain many specialized
enzymes
Lysosomes
• Small organelles filled w/enzymes
• May digest or break down lipids,carbs,and proteins into small molecules that can be used by the rest of the cell
• Lysosomes remove “junk”,or used up organelles….very important that this aspect function occurs
Vacuoles
• Sac like structures that store water ,salts ,proteins, and carbs
• Plants may have a single large water filled vacuole
• Contractile vacuoles control water in paramecium
Mitochondria and Chloroplasts
• Most all eukaryotic cells contain mitochondria that convert chemical energy stored in food into compounds convenient for cell to use
• Mitochondria have an outer and inner membranes
• In humans,nearly all mitochondria comes from ovum(egg cell)
Chloroplasts
• Capture energy from sunlight and convert into chemical energy in photosynthesis
• Contain 2 membranes and chlorophyll
Organelle DNA
• In chloroplasts and mitochondria
• Small DNA molecules
• Maybe descendants of early prokaryotes
• ----Endosymbiotic theory says these prokaryoic ancestors developed a symbiotic relationship w/ early eukaryotes and resided within---evolving into mitochondria
Cytoskeleton• Network of protein filaments that help cell maintain
shape• Also involved in movement• MICROFILAMENTS are threadlike structures made of
a protein-actin….make a major network and a tough framework///allows amoebas and such to move
• MICROTUBULES-hallow structures made of proteins called tubulins—important in holding a cell’s shape----form a mitotic spindle in cell division/which helps separate chromosomes
• CENTRIOLES are microtubules near nucleus in animals and help organize cell division
• Microtubules also help make projections like cilia or flagella
