Cell TheoryAll living things are composed of one or more cellsCells are:Basic unit of structureBasic unit of functionAll cells come from preexisting cells
Chapter 5
Basic Cell StructureAll cells possess a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, genetic materialPlasma membrane has phospholipid bilayer, embedded glycoproteinsIsolates cytoplasm from environmentRegulates molecular movement into and out of cellInteracts with other cells/environment

Control Structures b. Nuclear Envelope Structure:double membrane (two bilipid layers)nuclear lamina (protein network)between membrane layers (20-40 nm)perforated by pores (100 nm diameter)Function: stabilizes shape part of endomembrane system (transport)

Control Structuresc. NucleolusStructure:spherical region in nucleus composed of RNAFunction:packages ribosome subunits
Chapter 5
Control Structures d. Ribosomes Structure:complexes of RNA and proteins composed of two subunitsFunction: (as either free or bound)free ribososmes make proteins that function in the cytoplasm bound (to ER) ribosomes make proteins destined for membranes or for export

2. Endomembrane Systema. ER (Endoplasmic Reticulum)Structure:continuous with outer membrane of nuclear envelope folded membrane networkFunction: (as either smooth or rough) rough ER (studded with ribosomes) makes proteins and membranes (grow in place)smooth ER makes lipids, phospholipids, and steroids

2. Endomembrane System d. Central VacuolesStructure:Large, water-filled spaces (cell sap)Can take up over 90% of cell volumeEnclosed by tonoplast (single membrane)Function:Storage of pigments (red/blue), acids, salts, wastesMaintain cell pressure (turgor pressure)

2. Endomembrane System e. Contractile VacuoleStructure: Membrane-bounded sac Connected to canals radiating through cytoplasm Function:Control water balance in hypotonic environment.Fills with water entering cytoplasm (due to osmosis).Pumps water out of the cell by contractingRequires ATP

Biology: Life on Earth (Audesirk)Chapter 5Biology: Life on Earth (Audesirk)Chapter 5Biology: Life on Earth (Audesirk)Eukaryotic cells are best exemplified by the familiar plants and animals.The cell (plasma) membrane was discussed extensively in the previous chapter.Chapter 5Biology: Life on Earth (Audesirk)Some of the differences between these cell types are summarized in Table 6-1, and in the subsequent two slides.Chapter 5Biology: Life on Earth (Audesirk)Prokaryotic cells are exemplified by bacteria, like the one in Figure 6-3.The internal part of the cell is not broken up into compartments by membranes (no organelles).There is not even a membrane around the genetic material.The area that contains the genetic material is referred to as the nucleoid, and the genes are usually in one
