Describe the difference between
Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cells
Key Concept: Cells are
the basic unit of life

On the top of pg. 24:
• What do you think about when
you hear the word “cell”? (Think
of more than one type)
• What do these “cells” have in
common?
3.1 Cell Theory
These are some things that you may think of when you think of a cell:
Cell phone
jail cell
monk’s cell
cell
They have/are: structure, small, things inside, matter, mass, made
of atoms, used by humans…
3.1 Cell Theory
Main Ideas
• Early studies led to the development of the
cell theory
• Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and most
internal structures of eukaryotic cells.
3.1 Cell Theory
KEY CONCEPT Cells are the Basic unit of life.
Macrophages- play an important role in your immune system- take in a
digest foreign materials (red= bacteria)
3.1 Cell Theory
Objective
1c. Students know how prokaryotic cells,
eukaryotic cells (including those from
plants and animals), and viruses differ in
complexity and general structure.
3.1 Cell Theory
The cell theory grew out of the work of many scientists
and improvements in the microscope.
• Many scientists contributed to the cell theory.
First to

First to note
that plants

Concluded
that ALL
living things
are made of
cells
Proposed
that all
cells come
from other
cells
3.1 Cell Theory
Robert Hooke
•In 1665 he used the three-lens compound microscope to
examine thin slices of cork
•He observed that cork is made of tiny, hallow
compartments
•These compartments reminded Hooke of small rooms
found in monasteries (where monks live), so he
named them cells.
3.1 Cell Theory
•
More was learned about cells
as microscopes improved.

How does the size of a cell in a blue
whale compare to the size of the cell
in a tadpole?
3.1 Cell Theory
How does the size of a cell in a blue whale compare to the size of the
cell in a tadpole?
A: Most cells in a whale are the same size as in a tadpole! So what
makes a blue whale so much bigger?
A whale has far more cells.
3.1 Cell Theory
The Cell theory has three principles.
1. All organisms are made of cells.
3.1 Cell Theory
2. All existing cells are produced by other living cells.
3.1 Cell Theory
3. The cell is the most basic unit of life.
3.1 Cell Theory
One of the 3 principles of
cell theory is that ALL
existing cells are
produced by other
existing cells. Apply this
principle to a cut on your
arm.
(Explain what is happening throughout
the healing process)
3.1 Cell Theory
Answer
One of the 3 principles of cell theory is that
ALL existing cells are produced by other
existing cells. Apply this principle to a cut
on your arm.
You get a cut
You start to bleed
You form a scab
• Messages are sent to skin cells to
replicate
• Skin cells replicate through mitosis
New skin cells are created
Scab falls off
You are healed!

3.1 Cell Theory
There are two cell types: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic
cells.

Eukaryotic cells have a

Organelles: structures that are specialized to perform distinct
processes within a cell. The nucleus is usually the largest and
most visible organelle.

Cytoplasm: is a jellylike substance that contains dissolved molecular
building blocks- such as proteins, nucleic acids, minerals, and ions

How Viruses Work:
3.1 Cell Theory
Viruses
Virus- An infective agent that typically consists of a DNA or
RNA strand in a protein coat.
• multiply only within the living cells of a host
• Antibiotics will not work on them
Protein Coat
• Vaccines prevent them
EX: Herpes virus
Influenza
Chickenpox
