Unit 3

Don’t write but listen for the answers to:

Who started the study of cells?How long ago were cells discovered?

Who invented the microscope?What theory did these scientists give rise to?

Anton van Leeuwenhoek, 1632-1723, Wine Assayer, Surveyor, Cloth Merchant, Minor Public Official, and Inventor 1st to see microscopic living things.

Cells are the basic units of life.

Modern Cell theory

a. Cells are basic unit of life.

b. All organisms are made of cells.

c. Cells come from cells.

Modern Cell theory

a. Cells are basic unit of life.

b. All organisms are made of cells.

c. Cells come from cells.

Robert Hooke 1600s saw cells and named them cells because they looked like cells

(rooms) in a monastery.

Schleiden 1838 discovered all plants are madeof cells.

Schwann 1839 discovered all animals are made of cells

Anton van Leeuwenhoek cells basic units of life

Rudolf Virchow 1858 discovered all cells come from cells.

What are 2 tools that allow us to study cells?How are they different?

Light microscopes use 2 lenses to form a clear image. Due to diffraction of light wavesthey can only magnify objects about 1000times(1millionth of a meter).

Electron Transmission Microscopes focus a beam of electrons allowing DNA or viruses to be visualized. Some can visualize structures 1 billionth of a meter in size.

Electron Scanning Microscopes scan the surface of a specimen giving 3 dimensionalimages of the surface.

What are the 2 major categories of Cells.

How can you tell a prokaryote from anEukaryotic cell?

One micron is 1/1000 of a millimeter

Cell Organization

How is a cell divided into sections?

Plants and animals have a lot of organelles in common.

Venn Diagram

Cytoplasm: fluid and organelles located between the Cell membrane and the nucleus.

Organelle: specialized internal structures in the cytoplasm of cells that carry out specific functions. (Division of labor) Like tiny organs.
