Organelles- structures INSIDE cells
Small in size*
Cell Similarities
Cells need a larger surface area
 When cells grow, (as the volume
increases) outer surface grows too!(but
not as fast!)

Surface Area to Volume Ratio
Ability to grow larger without loosing its
ability to get the materials for survival
 Specialized cells perform a variety of
functions

The Microscope
Microscopes in this lab are descendants of
those made in the 1600s.
 Still use similar models- compound
microscopes. Use 1 or more lenses to
magnify objects.
 Light microscopes: use compound lenses
and light. Lens bends or refracts light to
make object larger. *See next slide for
convex lens

Intro to the Microscope: Facts

Scanning electron microscopes (SEMs):
use electrons (negatively charged
electrical particles) to magnify objects up
to two million times. *Used to view
objects smaller than that which can be
seen by light microscopes.

Cell Similarities

Organelles: structures within the cell,
sometimes surrounded by a membrane.
When we talk about cells
we need to know the
appropriate WORDS!
- Looking Inside Cells
All cells are covered by a cell membrane
Separates outside materials from inside
materials
 Allows nutrients & waste products in & out
 Interacts with things outside the cell


Cell Membrane
33
- Looking Inside Cells
-
Provides strength & support to the cell
membrane of a PLANT cell
Cell Wall
34
- Looking Inside Cells

The nucleus is the cell’s control center,
directing all of the cell’s activities.
Nucleus
35
- Looking Inside Cells

Mitochondria are known as the
“powerhouses” of the cell because they
convert energy in food molecules to
energy the cell can use to carry out its
functions.
Mitochondrion
36
- Looking Inside Cells
Is
similar to the system of hallways in a
building. Proteins and other materials move
throughout the cell by way of these
“hallways”. The spots on this organelle are
ribosomes, which produce proteins.
Endoplasmic Reticulum
37
- Looking Inside Cells

Receives proteins and other newly formed
materials from the endoplasmic reticulum,
packages them, and distributes them to
other parts of the cell.
Golgi Body
38
- Looking Inside Cells


Stores water, waste and other materials.
Help support the cell.
Vacuole
39
- Looking Inside Cells
Digest food particles, wastes, cell parts,
and foreign invaders
 ONLY in Animal cells
 Contain ENZYMES

Lysosomes
40
- Looking Inside Cells
Make food using the energy of sunlight
In Plants ONLY
Contain chlorophyll (makes cholorplasts
GREEN)
 Energy is trapped by chlorophyll and is
used to make sugar (aka photosynthesis)
 Sugar produced goes on to mitochondria


Chloroplasts

the cell?
