Cells are the smallest units of life

The Cell Theory1.

All living things are composed of one or more cells.

2.

Cells are the basic units of structure and function.

3.

Cells are produced only from existing cells.

All living things have cells

Unicellular creatures have

1 cell

Multicellular creatures have 2 or more cells

The DifferencesANIMAL CELL•

Lysosomes

–

Centrioles

PLANT CELL•

Squarish–

Chloroplast

–

Cell Wall–

Central Vacuole

Cell energy•

All nutrients must be broken down to GLUCOSE.

•

Breakdown of nutrients to glucose is done by enzymes

Make glucose through Photosynthesis

Release energy from glucose Release energy from glucose through cellular respiration through cellular respiration

and ATP Productionand ATP Production

Get glucose from food

WHERE: ChloroplastWHO: plant cellsWHY: turns water and carbon

dioxide into glucose and oxygen!

WHEN: in the presences of light energy (sun)

1.1. LightLight is absorbed by chlorophyll 2. Light splits watersplits water into H2 and O3. Energy from this split is used to

make ATPATP

“Calvin Cycle”Steps1.Energy from ATP used to make sugarsugar

(C6 H12 O6 ) from H2 O & CO2

2.Oxygen is “leftover”

Light energy + 6 CO2 + 6 H2 O C6 H12 O6 + 6O2

and 36 ATPand 36 ATP

carbon dioxide & water are “leftovers”

Two TypesAerobic•

Most Eukaryotic cells

•

needs oxygen•

makes 36 ATP

•

3 steps

Fermentation•

Yeast & Bacteria

• If oxygen isn’t available

• only makes 2 ATP

–

(ok for small things)•

This is how we make bread, yogurt, beer wine!

It’s a 3 STEP PROCESSWhy: to slowly release energy without

heating up the cell too much!1. Glycolysis: Happens in the cytoplasm

to

break down glucose–

All living things do glycolysis

2. Krebs Cycle: In the mitochondria, makes a few ATP (not efficient)

3. Electron Transport: In the mitochondria, makes a lot of ATP

The Big Picture1.

All nutrients must be broken down to Glucose

2.

Glucose must be converted to ATP

ANALOGY:

Money Tokens

•

The main energy molecule in organisms•

Energy is held in the Chemical Bonds– Breaking a bond releases energy

•

ATPADP– Making a bond stores energy

•

ADP ATP

Cellular Energy in the form of ATP gets used to drive cell

processes

EX: Cell DivisionCell Transport

Cell Size and Diffusion•

Cells must remain small to maximize diffusion

•

The larger a cells volume becomes, the less efficient it becomes.–

Prokaryotes -

Limited by efficient metabolism

–

Animal Cells (Eukaryotic) -

Limited by Surface Area to Volume ratio

•

Surface area of cells must be proportionally larger than it’s size (volume)

Several items make Cell Transport possible

1.

The Phospholipids ( Cell Membrane)2.

A Concentration Gradient

3.

Selective Permeability4.

Membrane Bound Proteins

Selectively Permeability:A property of biological membranes that allows some substances to cross the membrane more easily than others.

Concentration gradient: The difference in the amount of solution on each side of a cell membrane

The Phospholipid

HEAD LOVES WATER: hydrophilic

TAIL HATES WATER: hydrophobic

Hydro: Water

Philia: Love

Phobia: Fear or Hate

Heads out, Tails inHeads out, Tails in……

Types of Cellular Types of Cellular TransportTransport

Passive Transport–

Diffusion

–

Facilitated Diffusion•

Need Channel Proteins

•

No ATP

Active Transport–

Needs Carrier Proteins

–

Requires ATP•

Endocytosis

•

Exocytosis

Passive transportDiffusion: The tendency of a substance to move

from an area of high

conc. to an area of low conc. across a membrane in which the cell

expends no energy. (sliding down a slide)

Facilitated Diffusion: the process of transporting molecules by channel proteins during diffusion, requires no energy output(someone else carrying you down the slide)

Transport of molecules against

a concentration gradient (from low

conc. to

high

conc.) using carrier

proteins

in the cell membrane and energy from ATP. (walking up the slide)

Active transport

How Does that Look in a Cell?

A:A: Passive DiffusionB:B: Facilitated Diffusion

(needs channel protein)C:C: Active Transport (needs ATP & carrier protein)

Types of Active Transport

Exocytosis: The release of materials out of the cell (pooping)

EndocytosisThe taking of materials from outside the cell (eating)

Solvent: a liquid that dissolves the solute, usually water or alcohol

Solute:

Anything dissolved in a solvent

Together they make a Solution

Salt Sucks!Salt Sucks!

When salt is inside or outside the cell, it draws water in its direction.

This is why you get thirsty after eating something salty.

Same thing applies for other all solutes

Solutions and Cells•

All substances want to be equal on both sides of the membrane for homeostasis.

•

substances dissolved in solution have special vocabulary to describe them

•

Hypertonic•

Hypotonic

•

Isotonic

Hypertonic

•

The conc. of solute outside the cell is higher than the conc. inside

•

The solution outside is hypertonic

•

Water diffuses out of the cell until equilibrium is established.– The cell will shrink and lose mass

Hypotonic•

The conc. of solute outside the cell is lower than the conc. inside

•

The solution outside is hypotonic

•

Water diffuses into the cell until equilibrium is established.– The cell will get bigger and gain

mass

Isotonic•

The conc. of solute outside and inside the cell are equal

•

The solution outside is isotonic

•

Water diffuses into and out at equal rates – No net change in size or

mass
