Cells and Tissues

Slide 3.1Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Both carry out all chemical activities needed to sustain life. ∙Cells are the building blocks of all living things∙Tissues = groups of cells that are similar in structure and functionForm reflects function!

Main Ideas to recall…..

movement of substance into and out of the cellselectively permeable : “controls” what gets in and out.

Two types of:∙Passive transport: no energy is required∙Active transport: requires energy

Passive Transport Processes

Slide 3.23Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

DiffusionParticles distribute in a solution

∙Movement is from high to low concentration

-(down a concentration gradient)

Passive Transport Processes

Slide 3.24bCopyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Osmosis: simple diffusion of water through a membrane

Water moves toward high concentrations of solutes.

∙Your bodily fluids work to make sure the intracellular and interstitial fluids are equal to prevent a net movement of water into or out of the cell = BAD!

The net movement of H2O into and out of the cell should be equal.

Page 33: Cells and Tissues Elaine N. Marieb - Yolamscoxholyname.yolasite.com/resources/BIOII.Ch3.pdf · Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 3 Cells and Tissues. ... Cells and Tissues Slide 3.1 ... 2

Facilitated Diffusion: molecules are very large, must be “helped” through the membrane.∙Membrane proteins allow for the passage of these molecules (like glucose).

Active Transport Processes

Slide 3.27Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Transport molecules using energy! Why?∙ They are too big∙ Polarity differences (membrane = polar and nonpolar sections you must get through).

∙ They are going against the concentration gradient

Two common forms:1. Protein channels (solute pumping)2. Endo- and Exocytosis (bulk transport)

Page 36: Cells and Tissues Elaine N. Marieb - Yolamscoxholyname.yolasite.com/resources/BIOII.Ch3.pdf · Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 3 Cells and Tissues. ... Cells and Tissues Slide 3.1 ... 2

Solute Pumping

Slide 3.28aCopyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Proteins “pump” substances into the cell such as:

- Amino acids- Sugars - Ions

ATP (energy) required because it goes against the gradient.

moves “a lot” of stuff!Types of bulk transport:

1. Exocytosis = (Exit)∙ Moves materials out of the cell in a membranous vesicle

∙ Vesicle migrates to plasma membrane∙ Vesicle combines with plasma membrane∙ Material is emptied to the outside

Bulk transport

2. Endocytosis = (endo = in)Extracellular substances are enclosed in a membranous vesicle and “swallowed”.

-Types of endocytosis∙Phagocytosis – cell eating∙Pinocytosis – cell drinking

Cell Life Cycle

Slide 3.31Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

1. Interphase∙ Cell grows and does its job

∙ Some cells stay in interphase forever, others go on to divide.

∙ If the cell will divide, the DNA will “copy” itself = DNA replication

2. Mitosis (Cell division)∙ Cell replicates itself∙ Function is to produce more cells for growth and repair processes

Page 47: Cells and Tissues Elaine N. Marieb - Yolamscoxholyname.yolasite.com/resources/BIOII.Ch3.pdf · Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 3 Cells and Tissues. ... Cells and Tissues Slide 3.1 ... 2

Cellular Divisions: Mitosis

Slide 3.33Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Two Subdivisions:2. Mitosis

∙ Nucleus divides into two.3. Cytokinesis

∙ Division of the cytoplasm∙ Begins when mitosis is near completion∙ Results in the formation of two daughter cells- each an EXACT copy of the previous cell, except half the size!

Mitosis: The Anatomy version

Slide 3.37Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Regulation:Regulating the cell cycle is very important to the human body!

∙ Not all cells divide! Ex. = Neurons

Pace is important, too...cells dividing to quickly?

CANCER = second leading cause of death in US!

Protein Synthesis:

Slide 3.37Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Gene = DNA segment that carries a blueprint for building specific proteinsProteins have many functions

∙Ex. Building materials for cells∙Ex. Act as enzymes (biological catalysts)

RNA is essential for protein synthesis∙ DNA to RNA to Proteins!

Mutations….• Mutations = accidental changes in the

genetic code.• Types:

1. Chromosomal Mutations•Effect entire chromosomes

2. Point Mutations•Effect genes

Page 53: Cells and Tissues Elaine N. Marieb - Yolamscoxholyname.yolasite.com/resources/BIOII.Ch3.pdf · Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 3 Cells and Tissues. ... Cells and Tissues Slide 3.1 ... 2

How do such small mutations affect cells?

Because if you change the DNA…..

You change the mRNA…..

You change the tRNA…..

If that = a different amino acid = a PROBLEM!

Page 54: Cells and Tissues Elaine N. Marieb - Yolamscoxholyname.yolasite.com/resources/BIOII.Ch3.pdf · Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 3 Cells and Tissues. ... Cells and Tissues Slide 3.1 ... 2

Things to remember about Mutation:Not all mutations causes problems!

• Mutations in not in genes DNA- who cares?•Mutations that code for the same, or chemically similar amino acid- who cares?•Sometimes these are called silent mutations.

Some mutations are good!• Without mutations our DNA couldn’t change = no more evolution.• Some mutations may make a protein more efficient at its job, or have “hidden” positive effects.

Page 55: Cells and Tissues Elaine N. Marieb - Yolamscoxholyname.yolasite.com/resources/BIOII.Ch3.pdf · Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 3 Cells and Tissues. ... Cells and Tissues Slide 3.1 ... 2

What can cause mutations?• Genetics: you inherit them as errors in meiosis (egg and sperm)• DNA replication = doesn’t copy correctly

• Environment: UV radiation, radiation, aging process (free radicals in body)•Drugs and Chemicals

•Mutagens: known to cause mutations•Carcinogens: known to cause cancerous mutations•Teratogens: cause mutations in developing baby.

•Random errors…woops
