Cell Size

Question:Are the cells in an elephant bigger, smaller, or about the same size as those in a mouse?

copyright cmassengale

Page 47: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Factors Affecting Cell Size

• Surface area (plasma membrane surface) is determined by multiplying length times width (L x W)

• Volume of a cell is determined by multiplying length times width times height (L x W x H)

• Therefore, Volume increases FASTER than the surface area

Page 48: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Factors Affecting Cell Size

• DNA Overload = Not enough DNA to direct the whole cell

Page 49: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Factors Affecting Cell Size

• Movement of materials into and out of the cell

Cell Transport

Page 52: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Plasma Membrane

• Selectively permeable barrier

– Allows nutrients in

– Waste can go out

Page 53: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Passive Transport

Uses NO Energy

Page 54: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Types of Passive Transport(No ATP)

• Diffusion: – Kinetic Energy – Down or with

Concentration Gradient– Molecules must be small

or fat soluble to get across membrane

– Can be either direction– Heat Increases Speed

• Examples: fats, fat soluble vitamins, O2, CO2 or small ions like chloride (Cl-)

Types of Passive Transport

• Filtration:

– Uses pressure gradient (fluid or hydrostatic)– Filtrate goes from high to low pressure through a

membrane or capillary

• Example: water and solutes filter through kidneys

Page 70: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Active TransportRequires ATP

Page 71: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Active Transport (ATP)

• Solute Pump– ATP energizes protein carriers embedded in

membrane– Against the concentration or electrical gradient– Large or not lipid soluble molecules

• Examples: Amino Acids – Large MoleculeSodium-Potassium Pump - ATP is needed to pump sodium out of cell where there is more sodium and potassium that leaks out of the cell has to be pumped back inside.

Page 72: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Active Transport uses ATP for Bulk Transport

• Exocytosis:– Out of the cell– Transport vesicle (packaged by Golgi)– Migrates to membrane– Fuses and then empties outside cell

• Examples: Secreting hormones, mucus, cellular waste

Page 74: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Active Transport uses ATP for Bulk Transport

• Endocytosis– Into the cell– Engulfing extra-cellular substances– Forms a sac around the substance – Pulls it in and the sac buds off– Fuses with a lysosome– Enzymes digest the contents

Page 75: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

Types of Endocytosis

• Phagocytosis: Cellular eating. Ex: White blood cells get rid of bacteria. Protective

• Pinocytosis: Absorption function, droplets are surrounded and taken in. Ex: dissolved protein or fat

• Receptor-mediated:Taking up target molecules, proteins bind only with certain molecules. Ex: hormones, cholesterol, iron and sometimes viruses get in this way

b. Describe two primary functions of the cell membrane.

c. Explain how the structure of the cell membrane allows it to perform the functions described in part (b).

Page 94: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

A. Describe the basic structure of the cell membrane.

• A.) The cell membrane is made up of 2 layers of phospholipids. The hydrophyllic heads point outward, while the hydrophobic tails point inward. This is because the cytoplasm inside the cell and the fluid outside the cell contain water. Proteins can also be found in the membrane and their function is to facilitate diffusion, to act a s a pump, or as identifying markers.

Page 95: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

B. Describe two primary functions of the cell membrane.

• B) The primary functions of the cell membrane are, first, to maintain a boundary that keeps the organelles and cytoplasm inside and the other particles outside. Second, the membrane is selectively permeable allowing nutrients in and waste products out as well as protecting the cell.

Page 96: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

C. Explain how the structure of the cell membrane allows it to perform the

functions described in part (B).• C.) The structure of the cell membrane allows

it to perform its functions. The lipid bilayer forms a strong flexible barrier between the cell and its surroundings which repels water and large molecules. The protein molecules embedded in the bilayer act as channels or pumps to allow certain molecules in or out of the cell. In addition, some of the proteins have carbohydrate chains attached that act as identification markers.

The drawing below represents an organism that a student observed when examining a sample of pond

water with a light microscope.

• The student identified this organism as a prokaryote.

• A.) Is the student's identification accurate? Explain your answer using information from the diagram.

• B.) Identify three similarities between the cells of prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

A.) Is the student's identification accurate? Explain your answer using information from the diagram.

• No, the student is not correct. This organism has a nucleus and membrane bound organelles, a prokaryote does not have these things.

Page 105: MCAS Review Cell Biology. 2 Simple or Complex Cells copyright cmassengale.

B.) Identify three similarities between the cells of prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

• Three similarities between prokaryotes and eukaryotes are: 1.) Both have DNA which contains its genetic information. 2.) Both grow and reproduce and 3.) Both have a cell membrane

Some cells, such as human nerve and muscle cells, contain many more mitochondria than do other cells,

such as skin cells. Why do some cells have more mitochondria than others?

A. The cells use more energy.B. The cells store more nutrients.C. The cells degrade more proteins.D. The cells divide more frequently.
