Why study cells? organisms are made up of cells

cells do all the work of life!

THE CELL THEORYTHE CELL THEORY

1. All living things are composed of cells.

2. The cell is the basic unit of living things.

3. Cells are produced by other living cells.

The cell is the smallest unit that can carry on all the processes of life.

Some organisms are unicellular--- composed of one cell.

Bacteria Paramesium Euglena

Unicellular algae --- unicellular “plant”

Some organisms are multicellular --- composed of two or more cells --- many cells.

There are two basic types of cells: (1) Prokaryotic cells --

(2) Eukaryotic cells --

simple cells that have no nucleus and no organelles

complex cells that have a true nucleus and organelles.

- a membrane that encloses the cell and regulates what substances enter and exit the cell.

– the semifluid substance inside cells that is composed mostly of water. It also contains dissolved macromolecules and ions.

- the genetic material.

- small structures that make proteins.

Your body has different organs that perform different functions…..

Cells have mini-organs

Only eukaryotic cells have membrane- bound organelles.

---mini organs

Organelles – membrane-bound structures within the cell that have specific functions.
