Tour of the Cell
Microscopic Worlds
• Microscopes led to the
discovery of the cell
– Light microscopes
–
–
–
–
Cell membrane - yes
Large macromolecules - no
Microtubules - no
Mitochondria - maybe just
barely
– Many bacteria - yes
Microscopic Worlds
• Electron scanning microscope
• Scanning electron microscope
• Transmission electron microscope
Cell Size
• House DNA, protein molecules and internal
structures
• Obtain nutrients and diffuse nutrients and O2
• Smaller cells have a greater surface area to
volume ratio than do larger cells
– Surface area is significant for diffusion and
osmosis
Surface area : Volume
10 m
30 m
30 m
Surface area
of one large cube
 5,400 m2
10 m
Total surface area
of 27 small cubes
 16,200 m2
• Volume= 30 um *30 um* 30 um=27000um
• SA (large)= 6*(30um*30um)=5,400 um
• SA (small)=(6*(10um*10um))*27=16,200 um
Domains of Life
• The 3 domains of life
– Bacteria (prokaryotic cells)
– Archaea (prokaryotic cells)
– Eukarya (all other life forms)
Cells
• Prokaryotic
• Eukaryotic
– Protists, fungi,
plants, animals

Categories of Organelles
• Manufacturing
– Nucleus, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi
apparatus
• Hydrolysis
– Lysosomes (animals), vacuoles (plants),
peroxisomes
• Energy processing
– Mitochondria (animal), chloroplasts (plants)
• Structural support, movement, communication
– Cytoskeleton, plasma membrane, cell wall (plants)
Plasma Membrane
• Forms boundary
around cell
• Controls and
regulates material
transport
• Phospholipid bilayer
Nucleus
Chromatin
Nucleolus

Ribosomes
• Contains most of the
cells DNA
• Nucleus enclosed by
nuclear envelope
• rRNA synthesized in the
nucleolus
Ribosomes
• Synthesize proteins
• Free and bound ribosomes
• Composed of 2 subunits
Endoplasmic Reticulum
• Smooth lacks attached
ribosomes
– Processes toxins and drugs
in liver cells
– Stores and releases
calcium ions in muscle cells

– Synthesis of lipids, oils,

ER
• Makes more membrane & proteins
• Rough ER has attached ribosome
– Produce proteins that are secreted,
inserted into membranes, or transport ed in
vesicles to other organelles

• Finishes, sorts, and ships cell products
– Stacks of membranous sacs receive and modify ER
products then ship them to other organelles or the
cell surface

Chloroplasts
• Convert solar energy to chemical energy (photosynthesis)
• Stroma
– Contains DNA, ribosomes and enzymes
• Thylakoids
– Interconnected sacs that form stacks called granum
Endosymbosis
• Hypothesis of endosymbosis
– Mitochondria and chloroplasts were once small
prokaryotes living independently
– At some point, began living within larger cells
The Cytoskeleton and Related Structures
The cell’s internal skeleton helps organize its
structure and activities
– A network of protein fibers make up the cytoskeleton

Fibrous subunits

Microfilament

Intermediate filament
Microtubule
– Microfilaments (actin filiments)
• Enable cells to change shape and move
– Intermediate filaments
• Reinforce the cell and anchor certain organelles
– Microtubules give the cell rigidity
• And provide anchors for organelles and act as tracks for
organelle movement

Cell Junctions
•Tight junctions can bind cells together into leakproof sheets
•Anchoring junctions link animal cells into strong tissues
•Gap junctions allow substances to flow from cell to cell
