All living things….
- are made of cells
-obtain energy and provide waste - grow and develop
- reproduce
- respond to their environment
- adapt to their environment
cell theory
- all living things are composed of one or more cells
- cells are the basic unit of life
- all cells derive from the division of other cells
essential task of cell
- obtain food and energy
- convert energy from an external source into a form that works within the cell
- construct and maintain the molecules that make up the cell structure
- carry out chemical reactions
- eliminate waste
- reproduce
- keep records of how to build structures (nucleus)
hierarchy of cell anatomy
- chemical level
- celllar level
- tissue level
- organ level
- system level
- organism level
cells
smallest unit of life
tissues
cells that have similar shape and function
- there are 4 primary kinds in the human body
organs
diff types of tissue that act together to accomplish a common goal
organ system
group of organs that have related structure and function
organism
living complex adaptive system of organs that influence each other in such a way that they function as a stable whole
nucleus
- contains DNA that codes for all cellular functions
- command centre
- surrounded by a nuclear envelope for protection (double membrane)
nucleolus
- little nucleous
- has RNA used to make ribosomes
RER
- synthesizes and packages proteins to be sent to the golgi apparatus
- covered in ribosomes
- flattened membrane bound sacs and tubes
SER
synthesizes phospholipids and other macromolecules (mostly lipids) for transport to other parts of the cell
- flattened membrane bound sacs and tubes
cell membrane
- regulates what enters and exits the cell
- separate cell interior and exterior
- fluid mosaic structure (phospholipids bilayer with embedded proteins, carbs, and cholesterol)
ribosome
2 types
-cytoplasmic
- bound too ER
- builds proteins (mostly enzymes)
- tiny organelle
- composed of sub units called large and small m
golgi apparatus
- stack of flattened membrane bound sacs and tubes
- receives vesicles from ER and completes packaging of fats and proteins
- exports them out of cell
mitochondria
- power house of the cell
- provides cell with useable energy by breaking down glucose to form ATP
-double layer membrane - have their own ribosomes and DNA
lysosomes
- membrane bound vesicle
- has enzymes that break down waste products to be reused
-composter
cillia
- moves like a wave
- allows for movement
- short cylindrical projections
flagella
- moves like a whip
- allows for movement
- long tail
centrosomes (centrioles)
- near nucleus
- made of microtubules
-organizes microtubes - provides even distribution of products in cell division
what do plant cells have that animal cells dont
- chloroplast
- central vacuole
- cell wall
chloroplast
- double membrane
- contains chlorophyl and carries out photosynthesis
- stroma is fluid within
- thylakoid are disk like structures
- grana are stacks of stroma
central vacuole
- membrane bound large storage sacs
- filled with water, sugars, minerals, proteins and toxins
- provides internal support by maintaining turgor pressure
