How did Cells Form?How did Cells Form?
• Several Theories of How Cells Formed:– Cells arose in shallow pools containing “soup”
of chemicals. These chemicals become combined and formed cells.
– Cells formed in beds of clay that allowed substances (chemicals) to be contained and produce living things – cells.
– Meteors and asteroids carried water, containing life (cells) to the Earth.
Which Cell Theory Is True?Which Cell Theory Is True?
• We still do not know for sure how cells formed.
All living things perform All living things perform complex chemical activitiescomplex chemical activities“building up and breaking “building up and breaking
down”down”
• MetabolismMetabolism is the sum total of all the chemical reactions that occur in a living thing.– In humans these chemical reactions are
ingestion, digestion, respiration, and excretion.
All living things are able to All living things are able to respond to their environmentrespond to their environment
• A stimulusstimulus is something that comes from outside the organism or from within the organism that triggers a reaction.Examples:
cold breezecold breeze
stomach growlstomach growl
• A responseresponse is the reaction that occurs as a result of the stimulus.
Examples:
goose bumpsgoose bumps
eat foodeat food

What Makes Up All Living Things?What Makes Up All Living Things?“The Chemistry Of Life”“The Chemistry Of Life”
• All living things are made of elements and compounds.
What is an What is an ElementElement??
• An element is a pure substance that can not be broken down into any simpler substances.– Only 90 natural elements exist on earth.– Only 11 elements are common in living things.– 4 elements (carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and
hydrogen) make up 96% of the weight of the human body.
What is a What is a CompoundCompound??
• A compound is formed when 2 or more elements join together chemically.– Examples are: water H2O, and sugar C6H12O6
A water molecule is an example of a compound
There are 2 Types of CompoundsThere are 2 Types of Compounds
• Inorganic Compounds: are compounds that do not contain carbon. (carbon dioxide, CO2, is an exception)– Examples: salt NaCl, Ammonia NH3, Rust Fe3O2
• Organic Compounds: are compounds that do contain carbon; many are basic to life.– There are many types of organic compounds
including: carbohydrates, fats, oils, proteins, enzymes, and nucleic acids.
Organic Compounds - Organic Compounds - CarbohydratesCarbohydrates
• CarbohydratesCarbohydrates are the main source of energy for living things.– Examples are sugar, starch (fruits, vegetables)– Carbohydrates are made of carbon, hydrogen
and oxygen.

Organic Compounds – Organic Compounds – Fats and OilsFats and Oils
• Fats and oilsFats and oils: known as “lipids” are energy rich compounds. – At room temperature fatsfats are solidsolid and oilsoils
are liquidliquid.– Fats and oils are made of carbon, hydrogen
and oxygen.
Fats and OilsFats and Oils
Organic Compounds - Organic Compounds - ProteinsProteins
• ProteinsProteins are necessary for growth and repair of the body.
• In addition to carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, proteins are also made of nitrogen (sometimes made of sulfur and phosphorous).– Amino acids are the building blocks of
proteins.
ProteinsProteins
Organic Compounds - Organic Compounds - EnzymesEnzymes
• EnzymesEnzymes are special proteins that regulate chemical activities in the body.
• EnzymesEnzymes act as catalystscatalysts.– A catalystcatalyst is a substance that speeds up or
slows down a chemical reaction.
EnzymesEnzymes
Organic Compounds – Organic Compounds – Nucleic AcidsNucleic Acids
• Nucleic acidsNucleic acids are the “blue prints” of life.
• They are large compounds that store information that helps the body make the proteins it needs.– Example: DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid
Nucleic AcidsNucleic Acids
Other Types of NutrientsOther Types of Nutrients
• VitaminsVitamins: are necessary for good health and a healthy body, lack of a vitamin can cause disease.
• MineralsMinerals: regulate body functions, are needed for structure of body parts, maintain good health.
• WaterWater: dissolves and transports materials in the body which is 70% water, also needed for chemical reactions in the body.
What are Calories?What are Calories?
• Food energy is measured in calories.– The USDA recommends daily intake of 2000
calories for most people.– Calorie intake required depends on several
factors including species, age, sex, size and activity level.
– Teenagers have the greatest daily calorie requirement.

• Within multicellular organisms there is Within multicellular organisms there is division of labor or specialization.division of labor or specialization.– The work of keeping the organism alive is The work of keeping the organism alive is

What are What are TissuesTissues??
• TissuesTissues are cells that are similar in structure and function that combine together.– Example: bone cells form bone tissue– Other examples: muscle tissue, nerve tissue,
connective tissue.

What are Organs?What are Organs?
• OrgansOrgans are groups of different tissues are groups of different tissues that work together.that work together.– Example: the heart is an organ made of Example: the heart is an organ made of
muscle tissues and blood tissuemuscle tissues and blood tissue– Other organs: brain, stomach, skinOther organs: brain, stomach, skin
Organs – Heart and StomachOrgans – Heart and Stomach
What are Organ Systems?What are Organ Systems?
• Organ systemsOrgan systems are a group of organs working together to perform a specific function for the organism.– Examples: skeletal system, muscular system,
digestive system.
Organ SystemsOrgan Systems
Circulatory SystemCirculatory System
• Organs:– Heart– Arteries– Capillaries– Veins– Blood which includes:
• Plasma• Platelets• White blood cells• Red blood cells
– Lymph nodes
• The circulatory circulatory system system is the system of organs which transports materials throughout the body.

• Organs:– Brain– Spinal Cord– Nerves– Sense organs
• The nervous nervous system system is the system which carries impulses throughout an organism, regulates and controls body functions..
Skeletal SystemSkeletal System
• Organs:– Bones– Cartilage– Tendons– Ligaments
• The skeletal skeletal system system is composed of the bones and cartilage that support and protect the body of an organism.

• The respiratory respiratory system system is comprised of organs which exchange gasses between the organism and the environment.
Endocrine SystemEndocrine System
• Glands:– Pituitary– Thyroid– Pancreas– Adrenal
• The endocrine endocrine system system is comprised of the glands that secrete hormones that regulate body functions.

What is a Disease?What is a Disease?
• A disease breaks down the structures or functions of an organism.
• In the human body disease can be infectious or non-infectious.
• Infectious disease is caused by miroorganisms (microbes) and can spread from person to person.
• Non-infectious diseases can not be spread from one organism to another.

functions through unique structuresfunctions through unique structures
• Roots absorb water and nutrients from soil and anchor the plant.
• Stems transports water and nutrients to leaves and food throughout the plant.
• Leaves are where gas exchange and photosynthesis takes place.
• Flowers are where reproduction takes place for flowering plants.
