Title: CELLS
1CELLS
- By Miss Burd and Mrs. Tilicki
2CELLS all living things are made up of cells!
- Cells the basic unit of structure for our bodies
3Organelles
- Inside a cell are tiny cell structures called
organelles. - Each organelle carries out a specific function
within a cell.
4Cell Wall in a plant cell
- Before you can enter a cell, you must pass
through the cell wall. - The cell wall is a rigid layer of nonliving
material that surrounds the cells of plants and
other organisms. - The cell wall is made of cellulose.
5Animal cells have no cell wall
6Cell Membrane
- All cells have a cell membrane.
- This is just inside the cell wall or on the
outside of the cell without a wall it separates
the cell from its environment. - It controls what substances come into and out of
a cell
7Cell Wall VS Cell Membrane
- The cell membrane is very thin.
- The cell wall is thick.
- The cell membrane is a living part of the cell.
- The cell wall is a nonliving part of the cell
- The cell wall gives shape to the cell.
8Nucleus
- The nucleus is the cells control center.
- It directs all of the cells activities.
9Nuclear Membrane
- The nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear membrane
that protects the nucleus.
10Plant Cell
11Animal Cell
12Animal Cell VS Plant Cell
- Differences
- Plant cell has a cell wall
- Animal cell doesnt have a cell wall
- Plant cell has Chloroplasts
- Animal cell doesnt have Chloroplasts
13Chromatin
- Thin strands called Chromatin float in front of
the nucleus. - Chromatin contains genetic material (DNA) that
directs the function of the cell.
14Organelles in the cytoplasm
- As you leave the nucleus, you find yourself in
the cytoplasm of a cell. - This is a forever moving jelly like substance
that contains organelles that produce energy,
build and transport needed materials and stores
and recycles wastes.
15Mitochondria- powerhouse
- This organelle produces energy to help the cell
function. The more active the cell, the more
mitochondria it has.
16Endoplasmic Reticulum
- Maze of passageways that carry proteins and other
materials from one part of the cell to another.
17Ribosomes making a protein
- Attached to the surface of the endoplasmic
reticulum are ribosomes. These ribosomes produce
proteins and release them into the wall of the
endoplasmic reticulum. They are then transported
by Golgi Bodies.
18Golgi Bodies
- Golgi bodies are like the cells mail room.
- They receive proteins and other newly formed
materials from the endoplasmic reticulum, package
them and distribute them to other parts of the
cell.
19Chloroplasts
- Chloroplasts are found in the cytoplasm of plant
cells. - Chloroplasts capture the energy of the sun and
use it to produce food for the plant. - It is chloroplasts that give a plant its green
color.
20Vacuoles
- Storage center for a cell. (Some animal cells
dont have vacuoles. - Store food and other materials needed.
- Sometimes store waste.
- In plants, store water when well watered, they
are full when not well watered, the plant wilts.
21Lysosomes
- Small round particles that break down food.
- More common in animal than plant cells.
- Clean the cell!
22Bacterial cells
- Bacteria cells are smaller than animal and plant
cells - It does not contain a nucleus.
- It contains a cell membrane and a cell wall, but
the only organelle is ribosomes.
23Bacteria Cells
- Bacteria live on and in animals and plants.
- Bacteria are used to make many of the dairy
products you enjoy, including yogurt, cheese, and
milk. - There are more bacterial cells in your body than
there are human body cells. Dead or weakened
bacteria and virus are used for making helpful
vaccines. - Birds and other animals are common sources of
pathogenic (disease causing) bacteria such as
Salmonella and Campylobacter.
24Bacterial Cells
- Bacteria are the cause of diseases such as
tetanus. Many bacterial diseases can be treated
with specialized molecular compounds, known
collectively as antibiotics. - Most bacteria are good. 99 of all bacteria are
helpful. Only a few cause disease. - By breaking down dead organic matter like trees
and other plants, bacteria help to make the
nutrients available again to other living
organisms. - Scientists estimate that bacteria produce nearly
half the oxygen found in the atmosphere. - Bacteria play an important role in the cycling of
minerals, by taking elemental materials such as
nitrogen and carbon, and converting them into
molecular compounds that can then be used by
plants and animals.
25Bacterial Cells
- Some types of bacteria are used to break down oil
after ecologically damaging oil spills. - Helpful bacteria are used to purify water at
sewage treatment plants. - Some bacteria help our bodies with digestion and
to produce needed vitamins. These bacteria also
help us by destroying pathogenic bacteria that
invade our bodies. - Bacteria are found everywhere, from the deepest
parts of the oceans to the tallest mountains on
Earth. - The air is full of bacteria. Some bacteria spend
their whole lives in the atmosphere, reproducing
and growing in the clouds above our heads. - Bacteria love to live where the living is easy.
Anything with dead or decaying matter is a great
home for bacteria. We humans have millions of
bacteria living in and on our bodies including
our skin, our mouths, our intestines, and our
stomachs.
26Virus
- Viruses are non-living microscopic particles that
attack healthy cells within living things. - Viruses are not alive, so they do not have a need
for food like living things. - Viruses do not have an organized cell structure.
- They are so light that they can float in the air
or water, be passed on to other organisms if
touched, and fit anywhere.
Virus - Influenza
27Specialized Cell There are many cells in plants
and animals that perform special functions.
Nerve Cell sends messages throughout your body.
Red blood cells are thin and flexible which
allows them to fit through tiny blood vessels.
