Introducing your stars of the day

• CELLS!

2
The Dynamic Duo!

• There are two types of cells
• Cells w/internal, membrane-bound structures
• Cells without!
• PROKARYOTES
• -Form unicellular organisms (bacteria)
• -No membrane-bound structures
• (Remember what the root pro means?)
• 2) EUKARYOTES
• -Form multicellular organisms (plants and
  animals)
• -Contain membrane-bound structures called
  ORGANELLES

The Cast!
6
Setting the Stage for Cell Activities!

• The cell has to maintain a balance (homeostasis)
  of nutrients and wastes. It has to keep its
  audience happy!
• In comes the PLASMA MEMBRANE!
• Boundary between cell and environment
• Allows nutrients in and waste out
• Regulates levels of nutrients/wastes in cell

7
The Tech Crew!

• General Cell Organelles
• What does organelle sound like?
• ORGANS! Each organ serves a purpose in your
  body.
• Likewise, each organelle has its own function in
  the cell.
• The organelles work together to help the cell
  function properly.

8
The Tech Crew CELL WALL

• Found in plant cells, fungi, bacteria
• Rigid structure located outside plasma membrane
• Provides additional protection and support
• Inflexible barrier
• Made of CELLULOSE in plants

The Tech CrewCELL WALL
10
The Tech CrewNUCLEUS

• The leader of the cell!
• Contains directions to make proteins which run
  the cell functions
• Directions are found in CHROMATIN (DNA
  strands)
• BRAIN of the cell!

11
The Tech CrewNUCLEUS
12
The Tech CrewNUCLEOLUS

• Located within the nucleus
• Makes RIBOSOMES
• RIBOSOMES are the sites at which enzymes and
  proteins are made
• There is a nuclear envelope outside the nucleus
  that contains pores.

13
The Tech CrewNUCLEOLUS
14
The Tech CrewCYTOPLASM

• Clear, gelatinous (Jello-like) fluid in cell
• Proteins are made in the cytoplasm

15
The Tech Crew!ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM

• Site of cellular chemical reactions Highly folded
  membranes in cytoplasm
• Large workplace in cell for protein synthesis
• Folds allow for a large surface area to be stored
  in a small space in the cell
• Ribosomes attach to ER and it is called ROUGH ER
• Area of ER without ribosomes are called SMOOTH ER

16
The Tech CrewENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
17
The Tech CrewGOLGI APPARATUS

• Flattened system of tubular membranes
• After proteins are made in ER they are
  transported to Golgi apparatus
• Sorts proteins and packages them to be sent
  throughout the cell (Like mail!)

18
The Tech CrewGOLGI APPARATUS
19
The Tech CrewVACUOLES

• Stores materials temporarily
• Sac surrounded by membrane
• Store food, enzymes, wastes

20
The Tech CrewLYSOSOMES

• Contain digestive enzymes
• Digest excess or worn out organelles, food
  particles, viruses or bacteria
• Membrane protects lysosomes from digesting
  itself! (like the lining of your stomach!)
• The Garbage Men of the cell!

21
The Tech CrewLYSOSOMES
22
The Tech CrewCHLOROPLASTS

• Capture light energy and produce food for storage
• Have a membrane
• Found in plant cells only!

23
The Tech CrewMITOCHONDRIA

• Transforms energy for cell
• POWERHOUSE of cell!
• Has an outer and highly folded inner membrane to
  fit large surface area into a small space

24
The Tech CrewCYTOSKELETON

• What does CYTE mean?
• So CYTOSKELETON is a CELL SKELETON!
• Composed of tiny rods and filaments to form a
  framework to help support cell
• Constantly changing structure
