The Microscopic World of Cells
• Organisms are either:
– Single-celled, such as most bacteria and protists
– Multicelled, such as plants, animals, and most fungi

The Microscopic World of Cells• The human body is made up of trillions of cells many of which are
specialized
– Muscle cells, Nerve cells, & blood cells…

The Cell Theory• Cells were first discovered in 1665 by Robert Hooke.• The accumulation of scientific evidence led to the cell theory
- All living things are composed of one or more cells- All cells are formed from previously existing cells

Microscopes provide windows to the world of the cell
The Light MicroscopeLight passes through the specimenLenses enlarge, or magnify, the imageMagnification – the increase in the specimen’s apparent sizeResolving power – the ability to show 2 objects as being separate

Microscopes provide windows to the world of the cell
The Electron MicroscopeUses a beam of electronsResolving power is higher than the light microscopeCan magnify up to 100,000X

The Size of CellsMost cells are 10-
100 micrometers (µm) in size
Cell size and shape are related to their function
Ex: red blood cells, nerve cells, eggs
![Page 12: Chapter 4 – A Tour of the Cell. Intro Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings The Microscopic World of Cells](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649efc5503460f94c0feb5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Size of Cells
• The lower limit of cell size is determined by the fact that a cell must be large enough to house the parts (DNA, organelles) it needs to survive and reproduce.
• The maximum size of a cell is limited by the amount of surface needed to obtain nutrients from the environment and dispose of wastes.

The Two Major Categories of Cells
![Page 14: Chapter 4 – A Tour of the Cell. Intro Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings The Microscopic World of Cells](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649efc5503460f94c0feb5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The Two Major Categories of Cells• There are 2 major categories of cells
- Prokaryotic cells- Eukaryotic cells
• Both cells- Are surrounded by a plasma membrane- Consist of cytoplasm and organelles and contain DNA
• Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells differ in several ways
![Page 15: Chapter 4 – A Tour of the Cell. Intro Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings The Microscopic World of Cells](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649efc5503460f94c0feb5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Prokaryotic Cells• Smaller than eukaryotic
cells (2-8 um)• Enclosed by a plasma
membrane that is usually surrounded by a rigid cell wall
• The cell wall may be covered by a sticky capsule
• DNA is found inside the cell but it is not housed in a nucleus
• Ribosomes (70S) are present
• Internal structures surrounded by membranes are not present
![Page 17: Chapter 4 – A Tour of the Cell. Intro Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings The Microscopic World of Cells](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649efc5503460f94c0feb5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Eukaryotic CellsLarger than
prokaryotic cells (10-100 um)
More complex in structure
DNA housed in the nucleus
Ribosomes (80S)
Membrane bound organelles
![Page 18: Chapter 4 – A Tour of the Cell. Intro Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings The Microscopic World of Cells](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649efc5503460f94c0feb5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Comparing Animal and Plant CellsAnimal cells
contain centrioles, lysosomes, flagella
Plant cells contain a central vacuole, cell wall, chloroplasts

Comparing Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cells-
Commonalities: Prokaryotes & EukaryotesSmallest units of Life (therefore has the characteristics of life Chapter 1!)
Requires energy (to run metabolic reactions of life)Grows and developsIndependently reproduce
DNA stores genetic informationCan evolve over generations
Order: internal organizationResponds to environmental stimuli
Ribosomes build proteins for the cellsContains plasma membrane to regulate what enters and leaves the cellFilled with cytosol (fluid)
