Chapter 7 Section 1 Discovery of Cells

The Cell Theory • The Cell Theory states that all organisms are composed of

The Cell Theory • The Cell Theory states that all organisms are composed of similar units of organization called cells.

Before the Cell Theory people believed in spontaneous generation which means living things come

Before the Cell Theory people believed in spontaneous generation which means living things come from non living thing Two scientist disproved spontaneous generation.

Francisco Redi proved that macroorganisms do not spontaneously generate People thought that maggots came

Francisco Redi proved that macroorganisms do not spontaneously generate People thought that maggots came from meat. • Redi disproved this in a controlled experiment

Pasture proved that microoganisms do not spontaneously generate

The Cell Theory 1. All known living things are made up of cells. 2. The cell is structural & functional unit of all living things. . 3. All cells come from pre-existing cells by division. (No spontaneous generation ).

Microscopes • The Cell Theory would not exist if it wasn’t for the development

Microscopes • The Cell Theory would not exist if it wasn’t for the development of the microscope and the work of others.

Hooke • Hooke observed cork – the remains of dead tree bark • Coined the word CELL • Derived from the Latin 'cellula' which means small compartment.

Van Leeuwenhoek • Ten years later Anton van Leeuwenhoek used his own single lens

Van Leeuwenhoek • Ten years later Anton van Leeuwenhoek used his own single lens microscopes and was the first person to observe bacteria and protozoa.

Leeuwenhoek’s Microscope • Leeuwenhoek microscopes resemble high power magnifying lenses.

Two Basic Cell Types • Prokaryotic Cells • Eukaryotic Cells Mainly single Mainly celled

Two Basic Cell Types • Prokaryotic Cells • Eukaryotic Cells Mainly single Mainly celled organisms multicellular organisms, although some are single celled (amoeba, algae, yeast)

Prokaryotic Cell • Prokaryotes have no membrane bound organelles. • Example – bacteria cell

Eukaryotic Cells • Eukaryotes – contain membrane bound organelles • Example – plant and animal cells

Organelles • An organelle is a small specialized structure inside of a cell. •

Organelles • An organelle is a small specialized structure inside of a cell. • An example of an organelle is the nucleus which controls cell functions.
