Cell Theory
All living things are made up of cells and their products
The cell is the simplest unit of life to carry out all of life’s processes
All cells come from other cells
Types Organisms
Prokaryote: Does not contain a nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles
Eukaryote: Contains a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles with a semi-permeable membrane
This splits into unicellular and multicellular
Multicellular splits into Plant and Animal cells
Cytoplasm
Jelly like substance that suspends organelles, sometimes called cytosol
Cell Membrane
A semi-permeable membrane encasing the cellthat controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
Nucleus
A spherical structure containing DNA, info that controls cells functions
Mitochondrion
Converts glucose into ATP through cellular respiration and is often referred to as the powerhouse of the cell.
Endoplasmic Reticulum(Smooth)
A networking of branching tubes and packets that synthesizes lipids
Endoplasmic Reticulum(Rough)
Surrounded by Ribosomes
Synthesises and transports Proteins
Golgi Apparatus
Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids from ER for secretion or delivery to other organelles.
Vacuoles
Membrane-bound sacs that store nutrients, waste products, and other materials in a cell.
Cell Wall
A rigid outer layer that protects and gives structure to plant cells, algae, and some bacteria.
Lysosomes
Organelles that contain digestive enzymes to break down waste materials and cellular debris.
Chloroplasts
Organelles with chlorophyl found in plant cells that carry out photosynthesis, converting sunlight into energy.
Importance of Cell Division
Growth
Reproduction
Repair
Main Parts of The Cell Cycle
Interphase: Growth & Repair
G1, S, G2
Mitosis: Repair
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
Cytokinesis: Separation
Interphase
Phase where cell performs its own function and prepares for division.
Longest part of the cell cycle.
DNA is in long thin strands and begins to duplicate
G1, S, G2
Interphase(G1)
First Gap Phase:
Cell grows in size, new proteins and organelles are made
Interphase(Synthesis)
DNA is replicated(Chromatin)
Interphase(G2)
Prepares for division
Mitosis(Prophase)
Chromosomes become visible and nuclear membrane dissolves
Early Prophase:
DNA coils into chromosomes
Spindle Fibres from centrioles move to opposite poles
Late Prophase:
Spindle Fibres attach onto centromeres
Mitosis(Metaphase)
Spindles pull at the centromeres and line up of the chromosomes along the middle
Mitosis(Anaphase)
Chromosomes are separated into chromatids into daughter chromosomes, and are pulled to the pulls as spindles coil.
Mitosis(Telophase)
Chromatids unwind and nuclear membrane reforms around each set of chromosomes at each end, cleavage furrow forms. Parent cell is ready to split.
Cytokinesis
Cytoplasm of the Parent Cell divides into 2 genetically identical daughter cells.
Plasmodesmata
microscopic channels that connect plant cells, allowing for communication and transport of molecules between them
Concentration Gradient(Cell Membrane)
Different between concentration of particles inside and out of membrane
Dynamic Equilibrium
Net movement of particles across the membrane even though equilibrium is reached
Diffusion
Net movement of molecules across a concentration gradient of high to low concentration.
Active Transport
moves substances across cell membranes against their concentration gradient, requiring energy input from the cell
Osmosis
Net movement of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration.
Osmosis in Animal Cells
Hypertonic:
Water moves to higher solute concentration, becomes crenated
Isotonic:
Similar solute concentration outside and inside the membrane, normal outcome
Hypotonic:
Low concentration outside the membrane, so water goes inside the membrane more and outcome is lysed
Osmosis in Plant Cells
Plasmolysed : Crenated
Normal : Normal
Turgid : Lysed
Purpose of Digestive system
Cells need nutrient supply to provide chemical energy
Other nutrients needed to perform functions
Digestive System
Takes in food, digests, eliminates waste
The organ system made of mouth, esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, pancreas, gall bladder
Made of digestive and accessory organs
Epithelial Tissue
Tissue that lines the digestive tract. Made of goblet cells that secrete mucus and acts as a protective layer.
Mucus
Protects the muscular tube from digestive enzymes and allows food to pass smoothly
Mouth
Entrance way for food
Physically digests food by break down
Chemically digests food with mucus and enzymes
Esophagus
Muscular Tube
Connects mouth and stomach
Contracts to push the food
Stomach
Major organ that holds and churns food with smooth muscle
Small amount of physical digestion
Chemically digests with chemical enzymes
Small Intestine
Long tube with lots of blood vessels
Absorbs nutrients and diffuses into blood stream
Large Intestine
Long thick tube
Absorbs water
thick border to transport food waste
Liver
Produces bile juice with helps break down food
Pancreas
Produced enzymes that break down proteins, fat, carbs
Produces Insulin for blood sugar regulation
