Cells Section 1: An Introduction to Cells Section 2: Plasma Membrane Section 3: Organelles & Cytoskeleton
An Introduction to Cells The smallest living unit in the human body • Building blocks of all plants and animals • New cells come from pre-existing cells • Smallest units that perform all vital functions
An Introduction to Cells All cells are descendents of the fertilized ovum Differentiation: The process of gradual cellular specialization
Major Cellular Components Extracellular fluid Plasma Membrane Cytoplasm Cytosol Organelles Nonmembranous • Cytoskeleton • Microvilli • Centrioles • Cilia • Ribosomes Membranous • Mitochondria • Endoplasmic Reticulum • Golgi Apparatus • Lysosomes • Peroxisomes • Nucleus
Plasma Membrane Physical barrier separating the inside of the cell from the surrounding extracellular fluid Figure 3. 32 1
Plasma Membrane Selectively permeable phospholipid bilayer Hydrophilic heads Hydrophobic tails Cholesterol Figure 3. 2 1 -2
Phospholipids Phosphate Head (Hydrophilic) Fatty Acid Tail (Hydrophobic )
Phospholipid Bilayer • Fluid (like oil) • Hydrophobic molecules can get through easily, while hydrophilic molecules can’t
Fluid-Mosaic Model • Cell membrane is sea of phospholipids with a mosaic of proteins moving within it
Membrane Proteins Integral Proteins Peripheral Proteins
Membrane Protein Functions • • • Anchoring - stabilize position Recognition - identifiers Enzymes - catalyze reactions Receptors - sensitive to ligands Carriers - bind and transport Channels - passageways
Cholesterol • Patching material – Keep small molecules from sneaking through • Fluidity – Keeps membrane fluid across a range of temperatures
Glycocalyx (glycoproteins & glycolipids) • • Cell Recognition Lubrication Anchoring Binding Sites
Major Cellular Components Extracellular fluid Plasma Membrane Cytoplasm Cytosol Organelles Nonmembranous • Cytoskeleton • Microvilli • Centrioles • Cilia • Ribosomes Membranous • Mitochondria • Endoplasmic Reticulum • Golgi Apparatus • Lysosomes • Peroxisomes • Nucleus
Cell Organelles Microvilli Golgi apparatus Mitochondria Lysosomes Peroxisomes Centrioles Nucleus Endoplasmic reticulum -rough -smooth Ribosomes -Bound -Free Cytoskeleton Figure 3. 1 1
Cell Organelles • Ribosomes Bound or fixed Protein synthesis • Lysosomes Vesicles containing digestive enzymes Removal of damaged cellular material • Peroxisomes Vesicles containing degradative enzymes (H 2 O 2) Catabolism of fat and organic compounds; neutralize toxins
Cell Organelles • Mitochondria Double membrane enclosing metabolic enzymes Produces ATP (95%) • Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Membranous network extending through cytoplasm Intracellular storage and transport; secretory products • Smooth ER – lipid synthesis • Rough ER – protein synthesis • Golgi Apparatus Stacks of flattened membranes containing chambers Storage, packaging, processing of synthesized products
Mitochondria Organelles responsible for energy production; ATP Double Membrane Matrix Cristae Figure 3. 6 1
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Network of intracellular membranes connected to the nuclear envelope Rough ER Fixed Ribosomes Figure 3. 4 2 -3
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum The site where newly synthesized proteins are chemically modified and packaged for export Figure 3. 4 4
The Golgi Apparatus A cellular organelle containing membranous stacks that package and sort secretory vesicles 1) Membrane renewal 2) Secretion 3) Lysosome 1 2 3 Maturing face Forming face Transport vesicle Figure 3. 5 1
Cytoskeleton Maintains shape of cell and aids in cell movements • • Filaments Microtubules Cilia Flagella
Cells Section 4: Structure and Function of the Nucleus Section 5: Protein Synthesis
The Nucleus A control center for cellular processes Nuclear envelope Nuclear pores Chromatin Nucleolus Figure 3. 7 1
The Nucleus Nuclear DNA stores instructions for protein synthesis Nucleosomes Chromatin Histones DNA double helix Figure 3. 7 2
